[xwiki-users] Question about activating css source maps and cache cleaning
by Interaktionsweise 03 May '17

03 May '17

Hi, I've been wondering if there is something else do to to get the source maps for css enabled. I followed the instructions on the Extension page of the "LESS Module". I edited and un-commented the property "lesscss.generateInlineSourceMaps = true" within "xwiki.properties". Afterwards I restarted the server service. I also switched color themes to clean the cache. But I cannot see a change in the developer views of Chromium or Firefox. Every style still refers to style.css. At this point I also want to ask about the usage of the manual cleaning method for the cache. The documentation says that I can use the LESS CSS script service and provides a snippet {{velocity}} $service.lesscss.clearCache() {{velocity}} But where should I put this? The section "Script Service" on the LESS Module page only has a link to the source code on GitHub. I'm still digging into the XWiki world so maybe it is just a matter of time if can figure it out. The whole velocity less scripting thing is a huge topic though. Regards, sthag

[xwiki-users] Question to skins and inheriting files
by Interaktionsweise 03 May '17

03 May '17

Hi, I'm trying to create a new skin. I followed the section Skins within the Developer's Guide and also Platform Features / Skins. The article "How to create a new skin" says to copy the whole colibri (should be flamingo by now) skin folder and make an example change. Then there is a part about skin.properties. The property "parent" indicates a skin to inherit from. It says that it always has a value, even if I don't explicitly enter one for myself it will inherit from WAR or whatever is configured in "xwiki.defaultbaseskin". Does that mean I don't have to copy the whole flamingo folder if I reference flamingo as "parent"? This way I could only create a custom named folder within the xwiki/skins folder with the skin.properties file and for example a logo.png file which would replace the flamingo logo.png file. I don't understand the behavior and the functionality of this inheriting and parent child relation of skins from the articles in the documentation. Why have a parent if I copy the whole skin folder anyways? Regards, sthag

[xwiki-users] Page Administration: Rights: Page & Children
by Thomas Froehlich 03 May '17

03 May '17

Hello, I have a problem to set up the right page permissions (or may be I have a understanding problem ... ) using XWIKI 9.3 I want to set up access permissions to a certain page and to all children of this page. - A group "XWikiAdminDocumentation" was created. - A page "Administration" was created to be filled with documentation for administrators only. - Only members of group "XWikiAdminDocumentation" should have access to page "Administration" (and all coming child pages of "Administration"). - At page "Administration", menu "Administer Page - Users and Groups - Rights: Page & Children" I set up the following permissions: --- ALL rights to groups "XWikiAdminDocumentation" and "XWikiAdminGroup". --- NO rights to groups like "XWikiAllGroup" and "XWikiGuests". --- Please, have a look at the attached screenshot (sorry fort he "German screenshot" but the screenshot should be self-explaining I hope). - The problems are: --- First thing: As an administrator I can't forbid the right "Admin". Yes, I can disable this right. But if I open the menu "Page Administration: Rights: Page & Children" a second time the former set right "is lost" (see screenshot). --- Second thing: Despite oft he defined page permission rights a user of the group "XWikiAllGroup" kann read and edit the page "Administration". Much worse, this user can also open the "Administer Page" menu and he can change the permissions. I found no corresponding exceptions in the xwiki.log, therefore, from a technical point of view every thing seems to be okay. Now, I have no more ideas what elso to do :( Kind regards, Thomas

[xwiki-users] Installation from .deb packages
by Timo Dachs-Wegmann 02 May '17

02 May '17

Hello all, I have an issue installing the .deb packages from the maven repositories. The installation of xwiki-enterprise-tomcat8-mysql (and all other mysql installations) has a dependency to the old "mysql-server" package from the old versions of debian. It was replaced/removed in debian Jessie. It would be great if you could fix the dependency so the automatic installation works as it should. :) Kind regards, Timo Dachs-Wegmann -IT-

Re: [xwiki-users] Update From 9.2 to 9.3.1 - Failed

Looks like this is the failure: java.sql.SQLException: Cannot add foreign key constraint and org.hibernate.HibernateException: Failed updating schema while executing query [alter table activitystream_events_status add index FKBF7104E8CB8C5002 (ases_eventid), add constraint FKBF7104E8CB8C5002 foreign key (ases_eventid) references activitystream_events (ase_eventid)] com.xpn.xwiki.store.XWikiHibernateBaseStore.updateSchema(XWikiHibernateBaseStore.java:652) com.xpn.xwiki.store.XWikiHibernateBaseStore.updateSchema(XWikiHibernateBaseStore.java:393) So it appears to be the same problem as https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14225, however, this is *not *the case for me, my activitystream table is already INNODB: Thomas Mortagne <https://jira.xwiki.org/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=tmortagne> added a comment - 25/Apr/17 04:25 *The issue was that activitystream_events was still MyISAM for some reason. Converting it to INNODB fix it.*

[xwiki-users] Detailed XWiki Install Info For RPM-Based Systems
by JMorris 29 Apr '17

29 Apr '17

Hi Folks, After LOTS of research, we have decided to seriously explore XWiki; one feature in particular (among many) that stands out is the support for *annotation*. We like the idea of a "*second generation Wiki*" (especially after some extensive experience with MediaWiki and Confluence). Right now the biggest *hurdle is getting a successful install*. We have ready a large number of documents, but have now run out of insights. *TARGET SYSTEM*: VPS running 42.1 OpenSUSE Linux (RPM-based). Latest MySQL (actually MariaDB), Java, Apache etc. Currently a CRM system (PHP-based) and an accounting system (PostBooks) running. *CHALLENGE*: Tomcat and the WAR file. *SPECIFIC QUESTION: What is the best documentation that would enable us to very systematically install and configure XWiki? * /Especially in a non-deb environment. And with details concerning e.g. "ports". Widespread adoption will be encouraged when technically savvy individuals and small teams can try XWiki without having a sysadmin as a permanent team member. / We have voted for a *Bitnami *XWiki stack package. But we don't want to wait! Thanks for any pointers! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Detailed-XWiki-Install-Info-For-RPM-Based… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] LDAP Authenticator working but "You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action."
by Douglas Landau 27 Apr '17

27 Apr '17

Greets, I don’t get it. I moved my environment.permanentDirectory and got into a messed up state. I started over: I shut down tomcat I said "mysql drop database xwiki" and recreated it and re-granted app privs on xwiki.* I copy-n-pasted the LDAP settings from my previous installation, where LDAP auth was working I started tomcat, wenth thru the distribution wizard, and then installe LDAP Authenticator I stopped tomcat and restarted it Now I can log in with my AD account, but instead of the main page, I see ERROR You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action. I don't get it. I pasted the LDAP setting from a previous install, where LDAP seemed to be working fine. I tried another LDAP account and got the same results. What could I have done wrong? I think that this time the LDAP settings were there before the LDAP authenticator was installed, could that be it? Could it be that I need to open the perms on the permanent data dir? It is writable to the xwiki user, and that is who is executing tomcat. I see this in the catalina log: 2017-04-26 12:29:26,103 [http://dwswiki10.westmarine.net:8080/xwiki/bin/loginsubmit/XWiki/XWikiLogin] ERROR o.x.c.l.XWikiLDAPConfig - Error parsing LDAP fields mapping attribute from configuration ... but as I said I didn't get the "You are not allowed..." bit last time around. And the LDAP settings were pasted from there.
