Hello,

Whenever I try to add an extension from XWIKI 3.4 (on RedHat 6, tomcat6 with PostgreSQL database) from the ‘Add Extensions’ menu, I get a message like this

Caused by: class java.io.IOException: File 'data/extension/repository/org.xwiki.contrib%3Axwiki-plugin-excel-1.0-src.pl ugin' could not be created

ð  It looks like a directory is missing in my WIKI install, could you tell me the exact path of the data/extension/repository (from the XWIKI app root) ?

Also, the problem I encountered earlier with Lucene came from the xwiki.cfg

#-# Lucene search engine #-# Location where to place the lucene index files. The default is the "lucene" subdirectory in the container's "work" #-# diectory. Change it if you want to store indexes in another place. # xwiki.plugins.lucene.indexdir=/usr/local/xwiki/lucene

Well it looks like XWIKI really choose /usr/local/wiki/lucene and nothing into a ‘work’ container as the documentation seems to indicate.

No, by default it choose a "lucene" subfolder in whatever you have in the property "xwiki.work.dir". If nothing is set in "xwiki.work.dir" property it use the application server work directory. Pretty much the same thing for extension manager: you have to set a proper folder in the property "container.persistentDirectory" in file xwiki.properties. In your case looks like you have container.persistentDirectory=data which is right only with the jetty+hsqldb distribution.

Could you fix the default xwiki.cfg file (Description or content) on Red Hat, it looks like we should have:

# xwiki.plugins.lucene.indexdir=/usr/local/xwiki/lucene

xwiki.plugins.lucene.indexdir=/usr/share/tomcat6/work

Many thanks for your help,

Regards,
