Re: [xwiki-users] Curriki vs PeerWise

Hi Guillaume,

Thanks for this pointer. Polls application clearly shows the potential of
XWiki for this kind of work!

 Hi Asiri,

 I think that the closest thing we have to this in XWiki would be the Polls
 application:
 http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Polls+Application ,
 but
 it's probably far from being as polished as PeerWise.

 So you would have to either integrate and/or build something similar in
 XWiki in order to benefit from the features.

 Hi guys,

 I installed the Admin Tools plugin
 http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/AdminTools

 And found that half the stuff didn't work anyway.

 Regardless, carrying on, I am hoping the User Rights tool will be helpful,
 however it can't seem to check the most important user:
 the Unregistered User

 And what is worse, I discovered by accident that the Unregistered User can
 access the space!
 For example, an unregistered user can access the /xwiki/Admin/RunQuery
 page,
 which could be used to run queries directly on the database, for example
 select * from xwikipreferences

 Does this give anyone else a heart attack too??


I don't think this extension is part of the standard XE/XEM release. You
should be careful when installing extensions.



 WHY is there no default cannot view unless admin says so mode?
 This is a problem with all of my spaces.  When I create a space, I want to
 then have to go and ALLOW people to access it.  Not open by default, that
 is
 much harder to configure.


It's a wiki, and wikis are supposed to be open by default. If the the
default behaviour is closed, it would be hard for a normal user to create
a space and allow other users to contribute content (he'll have to wait for
the admin to open that space).

This is only my personal understanding and I'm not a professional XWiki
user, so let's wait for some other views as well.

Thanks.

- Asiri



 Can someone please look at rights management, it seems to be insecure by
 default, and makes me scared.

Re: [xwiki-users] RES: External OpenOffice Server

2011-03-25 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Ramon,


Asiri, when the web service mode turns available on next versions of
 JODConverter, will it be possible to use it in XWiki, in the way to have
 OpenOffice and XWiki on different servers? I'm so interested on it because
 in our company here, it's not (and I believe it won't be) possible to share
 our production container server with an openoffice instance (policy
 restrictions higher than we can deal), and we do have a dedicated openoffice
 server up and running, on another machine, for other applications. We're
 running XE2.4.3 without Office Importer functionalities and the main reason
 to upgrade to the last version, among others, would be the opportunity
 window do activate this amazing feature, what would substantially boost our
 XWiki experience.

 Aren't there any possibilities or approaches in the short term, at all?


I think I proposed one possible alternative sometime back:

1. On the machine you are running openoffice server, you'll have to setup a
tomcat server and a small servlet. This servlet will take care of converting
office documents into html and zipping them up (because the conversion could
result in multiple artifacts) and streaming them back to the client who
invoked the servlet.

2. Modify officeimporter codebase so that OfficeConverter (IIRC) now instead
consumes this servlet for document conversion instead of the local
openoffice server.

IMO this solution is not that hard to implement but as I remember nobody
commented on this approach back then.

Thanks.

Is your office importer application working properly as described in

 The attachment is there, I've downloaded it without problems (i've tried

 simple docs? The preview eye icon does not appear for any odt, odf, ppt as
 well. Are there any configs that I need to make on xwiki.cfg or
 xwiki.properties? Any plugin to activate?

You must choose the criterion for splitting, I think you have to select the

level and there are no H3 headers, I don't think the document would be split

Re: [xwiki-users] Webdav Access for a mulitple virtual Wiki's

Hi,

On Wed, Aug 4, 2010 at 1:31 PM, Thomas Hoeschele thoesch...@gmx.de wrote:

 Hallo everybody,

 I want to have permanent Webdav access to multiple virtual wikis for file
 synchronisation. However, there are some problems with achiving that:

 1. Mounting a webdav access on a networkdrive via Netdrive won't suffice as
 there will be more than 26 Wikis. Ideally there could be one webdav access
 for the whole wiki farm, for example through URL-Path based webdav access.
 (One drive for the whole farm)


I did some digging into the code and it seems current webdav implementation
does not take into account multiple wikis, it always access the main wiki.
Our top-level webdav view consists of following sub directories:

- home
- spaces
- attachments
- orphans
- whatsnew

IMO we should have a top-level view which lists all the wikis available, and
inside each such wiki directory we can list above sub directories. The
reason for webdav support not being actively developed is that it is not a
feature frequently requested or funded (w.r.t components like
officeimporter, wiki macros etc.). If this feature is really important for
your organization what you can do is:

1) Dig into the code, implement support for multi-wiki environments and
contribute the code back to xwiki.

OR

2) Sponsor the development of this feature (via a commercial xwiki support
company like XWiki SAS and ask them to contribute that code to XWiki
opensource project).

Either way you can support the xwiki opensource project while getting your
work done.


 2. It seems adding files via a mounted Netdrive webdav access is not really
 possible; it works through http:// webdav access though.


No, this should already work. Did you drop the files inside a wiki page
directory? Then they should be added as attachments. If you are on a linux
environment you can use [1] or [2] and develop shell scripts to manage your
attachments. Note that the behaviour of webdav servers is very much
dependant on the webdav client you are using, you should try out several
clients and pick one that works best for your OS / environment.

Hope this helps.

I'm really sorry but I'm clue-less in this case. I think you should report a
JIRA saying that webdav doesn't work in path based wiki farms (or may be
even perhaps in any virtual wiki configuration). At least, there should be
some documentation regarding this.

One interesting experiment though is to try changing the webdav servlet
mapping in web.xml file. As you can see in
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HConfiguringWebDAV28since1.729webdav
servlet is mapped so that it handles any request matching /webdav/*
pattern. What you can do is try to change this mapping so that it
effectively becomes /wiki_name/webdav/*. This is just an un-proven idea,
but it might work if all goes well.

I wish I had enough time to look into this myself :(

[xwiki-users] Syntax highlighter for XWiki!

2010-07-18 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hello XWikiers!

If you have used syntax highlighter (
http://code.google.com/p/syntaxhighlighter/) in wordpress, blogger etc. you
are going to like this one:

http://asiri.rathnayake.org/xwiki/bin/view/Macro/MCode

Now because of the flexibility of XWiki SSX and JSX, you can easily
customize this macro (if you wish to extend it). There are few things I wish
if I could improve (implementation details) but I hope this would be useful
the way it is now :)

Let me know if it looks good.

Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] WebDAV issue: Not Implemented

2010-07-02 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi,

Normally XWiki / Tomcat works without much trouble when it comes to WebDAV.
Now I'm not sure if apache is doing anything before forwarding those
requests to tomcat.

Can we see your tomcat log files when the Not Implemented error occurs? Or
do you see any log entries in xwiki.log file that has anything to do with
webdav?

Thanks.

 Hello,
 I have just upgraded to XWiki Enterprise 2.3.1.29118 and have a question
 regarding configuring WebDAV.

 My XWiki is installed in Tomcat 5.5 as the 'ROOT' web app. Tomcat runs on
 port 8080 and I have an AJP connector with Apache proxying requests via SSL
 port 443, meaning that my wiki can be accessed at:

 https://www.myhost.tld/bin/view/Main  (etc.)

 My question is regarding WebDAV login. I understand that the normal login
 URL for this would be:

 http://www.myhost.tld:8080/xwiki/webdav

 However, since I have deployed XWiki as the ROOT webapp, it seems that I am
 getting redirected to Tomcat's built-in WebDAV app when accessing this URL.

 When I access:
 http://www.myhost.tld:8080/webdav
 or
 https://www.myhost.tld/xwiki/webdav

 I get the same list of three files - a generic HTML page listing
 information about Tomcat's WebDAV support, and a couple of GIF files with
 the Tomcat logo.

 When I access:

 http://www.myhost.tld:8080/xwiki/webdav
 or
 https://www.myhost.tld/xwiki/webdav

 I get a 'Not Implemented' error.


 Could someone advise on how to configure XWiki/Tomcat to pass me to XWiki's
 WebDAV implementation, rather than to Tomcat's default one? My xwiki.cfg has
 WebDAV enabled (as far as I know - it is pretty much set to defaults in all
 respects).

 On another note: thank you for all your sterling work with XWiki. It's a
 tremendously flexible and useful application, and it has been a breeze to
 administer.

 Hi,

 Currently the Import menu of the WYSIWYG editor has two entries:

 * 'Office Document' for importing office files
 * 'Office Content (Copy / Paste)' for pasting rich text (copied usually
 from office documents)

 We had a few complains from uses that were pasting the rich text
 directly in the edited document causing the editor to misbehave or
 getting unexpected content after save. When they were told to use the
 'Office Content (Copy / Paste)' entry from the Import menu they seemed
 surprised

 Ideally the editor should catch the paste event and clean the pasted
 rich text on the fly before it is inserted in the edited document but
 currently there's no clean way to do this: access to the clipboard is
 restricted for security reasons and the paste event is not well
 supported in all major browsers.

 I recently committed a change to the WYSIWYG editor to allow putting any
 of the Import menu entries on the tool bar.

 (1) Should we enable the 'Office Content (Copy / Paste)' button on the
 tool bar by default in the standard XE distribution?

 (2) Should we remove the 'Office Content (Copy / Paste)' entry from the
 Import menu?


+1 for both.

Thanks.

- Asiri



 I'm +1 for (1) and -0 for (2) because the Import menu would look awkward
 with just one entry. Note that it's not unusual to have a feature both
 in the menu and in the tool bar.

 Thanks,
 Marius

Re: [xwiki-users] Post-upgrade issue

2010-06-13 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Ivan,

It looks like skin extension plugins are not loaded in your XE. You can try:

{{velocity}}
$xwiki.ssx
{{/velocity}}

And see if it outputs the plugin API object.

Also, can you check whether your xwiki.cfg file has the plugins declared
like:

#-# List of active plugins.
xwiki.plugins=\
com.xpn.xwiki.monitor.api.MonitorPlugin,\
com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.skinx.JsSkinExtensionPlugin,\
com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.skinx.JsSkinFileExtensionPlugin,\
com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.skinx.CssSkinExtensionPlugin,\
com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.skinx.CssSkinFileExtensionPlugin,\
.

If you are sure that your xwiki.cfg is correct, you should see some
exception traces when you start XE. These exceptions will complain that some
plugins are missing or was not loaded due to errors.

If you can try the above and post the tomcat logs for missing / errornous
plugins, may be we can help.

Thanks.

Are you sure tomcat logs don't have any exceptions logged? I have

Nope. Although we have plans to use openoffice server for exporting wiki

 ERROR properties.PropertyMaker - forcing opt to max in LengthRange
 The document which I tried to export has tables with images in. In pdf
 format, the tables are rendered but they exceed the larger of the page and
 so they were truncated (we cannot see all the content). In rtf format,
 instead of tables, there are only very big cells (one per pages) without
 any
 content (neither image or text). Please, note that those behaviors apply to
 tables with AND without images. Do you think the warn/error messages are
 linked to this ?

 Dear reader,

 Version: XWiki/XE 2.2.4

 I gave the Office importer some treatment to make it work conform
 expectations. Maybe interesting for others?
 Whats weird is, that in IE7 it proposes an ugly document name, something
 like: c-fakepath etc. So I modified XWiki.OfficeImporterResults to strip
 everything in front of the actual documentname:


 #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath).replaceAll(^.*[\\],))

 Then, I added a check for an empty spacename (otherwise you'll end-up with
 a document in the XWiki space, which is probably not what you want), and
 also strip any considered 'dangerous' character from the documentname (such
 as ^@, accents, etc):

 ###
 ## Validate Target Space ##
 ###
  #if(! $request.targetSpace)
{{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingspace,
 [$goBack]){{/error}}
  #else
#if( $request.targetSpace ==  )
  {{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingspace,
 [$goBack]){{/error}}
#else
  ## #set($targetSpace=$request.targetSpace.replaceAll([:/=+?#],
 -))
  ##
 #set($targetSpace=$request.targetSpace.replaceAll([^a-zA-Z0-9-_~],_).replaceAll(
 \\.\\/, ).replaceAll('',))
  #set($targetSpace=$request.targetSpace.replaceAll( \\.\\/,
 ).replaceAll([\=\\@'\\/()],-).replaceAll('',).replaceAll([^a-zA-Z0-9-_~],_))
#end
  #end
 ##
 ## Validate Target Page ##
 ##
  #if(! $request.targetPage)
{{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingpage,
 [$goBack]){{/error}}
  #else
## #set($targetPage=$request.targetPage)
##
 #set($targetPage=$request.targetPage.replaceAll([^a-zA-Z0-9-_~],_).replaceAll(/,
 -).replaceAll('',))
#set($targetPage=$request.targetPage.replaceAll([\=\\@'\\/()],
 -).replaceAll('',).replaceAll([^a-zA-Z0-9-_~],_))
  #end

 Finally, I did not want to present the menu option at all for users who
 have no rights to create documents:
 In: templates/menuview.vm
  ## #if($canImport) (original)
  #if($canImport  $hasCreatePage)
#submenuitem($xwiki.getURL('XWiki.OfficeImporter', 'view')
 $msg.get('core.menu.create.pageFromOffice') 'tmActionImport')
  #end

 More of this to follow, hopefully useful for others!

Re: [xwiki-users] Configuring Open Office server

2010-05-08 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Ben,


For the following code, I didn't understand where I can test it... I would
 like to solve this problem with IE...


Since you did not respond to my last email, I'll blindly propose a solution
that might fix the problem you are experiencing on IE.

1. Open up XWiki/OfficeImporterResults wiki page and go to wiki editing
mode, you should see the following code snippet at the top of the page:


 code
  #set($fileUpload=$xwiki.fileupload)
   #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath))
#if(! $fileName)
  {{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingfile,
 [$goBack]){{/error}}
#else
 #set($void=$fileUpload.loadFileList())
  #set($officeFileStream=$fileUpload.fileItems.get(0).inputStream)
   #end
 /code


Now you need add two code lines (wait for it) just under the line:

#set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath))

New code lines to be added are:

#set($tempIndex = $fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1)
#set($fileName=$fileName.substring($tempIndex))

So, at the end your code snippet should look like:

#set($fileUpload=$xwiki.fileupload)
  #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath))
  #set($tempIndex = $fileName.lastIndexOf('/') + 1)
  #set($fileName=$fileName.substring($tempIndex))
   #if(! $fileName)
 {{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingfile,
[$goBack]){{/error}}
   #else
#set($void=$fileUpload.loadFileList())
 #set($officeFileStream=$fileUpload.fileItems.get(0).inputStream)
  #end


I'm not 100% sure if this will solve the problem (since I did not get a
response for my last email). If above code fixes your problem, please let us
know.

Thanks.

reproduce it. The wired thing is how input path
(D:\Users\bet\Desktop\test.doc)
got transferred to server side. I suspect that commons file upload (xwiki
file upload plugin) have an issue where getFileName() function returns file
path instead of file name, however as i said i could not reproduce this.

Following is the code i use for extracting the name of the uploaded file
(for devs to check):

code
#set($fileUpload=$xwiki.fileupload)
  #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath))
  #if(! $fileName)
{{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingfile,
[$goBack]){{/error}}
  #else
#set($void=$fileUpload.loadFileList())
#set($officeFileStream=$fileUpload.fileItems.get(0).inputStream)
  #end
/code

filePath above refers to the file upload input box's name attribute
(html).


@Ben: Can you try deleting all the contents of C:\Program
Files(x86)\XWiki\jetty\work\ directory and redo the import?

Many thanks for reporting and debugging this issue :)

 We should banish all usage of PRs in default XE IMO and ensure that with
 some checks (not sure yet how to do that).

 In case we have something requiring PR we should either add it to the
 generic API (if it's generic) or add a specific server-side service for it.

 WDYT?

 So we have 4 pages that need PR so far:
 - the password register page
 - the AllDocs page
 - the all attachment result page
 - the copy document page


Not sure if this is related but i would also like to remove the PR
requirement for OOo server administration tasks (and require admin rights
only).

 Any more that we'd need to fix?

 Thanks again for your help

 I deleted the contents of C:\Program Files(x86)\XWiki\jetty\work\ It
 doens't solve the problem.

 BUT indeed, I was with IE and it's working with Firefox.

 For the following code, I didn't understand where I can test it... I would
 like to solve this problem with IE...

 code
  #set($fileUpload=$xwiki.fileupload)
   #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath))
#if(! $fileName)
  {{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingfile,
 [$goBack]){{/error}}
#else
 #set($void=$fileUpload.loadFileList())
  #set($officeFileStream=$fileUpload.fileItems.get(0).inputStream)
   #end
 /code


This code is in XWiki/OfficeImporterResults page.

Now, I'm not sure if you are familiar with velocity scripting, but if you
are, you can try printing the variable $fileName just after the
#set($fileName=...) line.

The code should look like:

code
 #set($fileUpload=$xwiki.
fileupload)
  #set($fileName=$fileUpload.getFileName(filePath))
  File name is: $fileName
   #if(! $fileName)
 {{error}}$msg.get(xe.officeimporter.results.missingfile,
[$goBack]){{/error}}
   #else
#set($void=$fileUpload.loadFileList())
 #set($officeFileStream=$fileUpload.fileItems.get(0).inputStream)
  #end
/code

After this change, try importing the same document from IE as well as
firefox and let us know the value of $fileName variable in both cases (just
after officeimport operation you should see the result of above code).

Thanks.

 Hello Vincent,

 We are having problems trying to import .doc documents. We are getting

Can you post the server log (exception trace) when this happens? The problem
seems to be associated with XE back-end (officeimporter / html parser)
rather than with WYSIWYG editor. You should see a huge exception log message
when this error happens on the wysiwyg editor.

And replacing xwiki wysiwyg editor with ckeditor will not fix this issue
AFAIK because ckeditor does not have a .doc file import feature (except for
the copy/paste import feture which is also present in xwiki wysiwyg, but
your problem seems to be with file import feature as you say).

 Our version: XWiki Enterprise 2.2.5.28407

 Also, we would like to be able to customize the wysiwyg editor. I've read
 the:
 http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/WysiwygEditor

 code. That would allow the pdf export to properly generate the document.

  Velocity code:
 {{velocity filter=none}}
 {{html clean=false wiki=true}}
 #pagebreak()
 {{/velocity}}

 It may seems like I'm POGging around... If you know a better way to do
 it,
 please, tell me. ;)

Re: [xwiki-users] FoxWiki Edit attachments feature

2010-04-15 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Eugen,

On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 2:17 PM, Colesnicov Eugen ecolesni...@gmail.comwrote:


 Hi developers!

 According discussion about this FoxWiki  Edit attachments feature at
 XWiki-Dev subforum. I want to write my opinion for developers.

 Current situation:
 - In IE this feature working good without any additional jobs (I tested
 2.2.4).
 - In FF - need to use FoxWiki extension (download manualy xpi-file, and
 edit
 max-version property).
 - In Chrome - Edit attachments - doesn't work.

 I have proposal about using this feature in FF. FoxWiki working, but I
 don't
 like that users MANUALY everytime should add file extention and application
 path  in FoxWiki. From other side, exists some other extentions for FF (for
 example http://openwebfolder.mozdev.org/). As I understand, this extention
 adds to FF functionality of windows WebFolder WebDAV client - same as IE.
 But now, I cannot use (or try) this extention with XWiki, because XWiki
 programming code obviously use ONLY FoxWiki at FF. As I understand, If we
 will try to use openwebfolder extention - no any special code needs for
 XWiki - programming code can be same as a IE part.

 Other collaborative suits software also use openwebfolder extention for FF
 (see for example

 http://help.collab.net/index.jsp?topic=/teamforge530/action/connecttowebdavwithfirefox.html
 ).


Openwebfolder has the following description:

*openwebfolder* itself does *not* contain any platform-independant WebDAV
related code. It just adds hooks so that Microsoft's Webfolder WebDAV
client can be invoked in a similar way like in IE.

So this is a windows only solution. May be we should have some logic like:

if (IE) {
  // Use native webdav support in IE.
} else if (FF  Win32) {
  // Use openwebfolder.
} else if (FF) {
  // Use FoXWiki.
}

But first someone has to evaluate if openwebfolder + FF on Win32 is better
than FoXWiki + FF on the same. Anyway, I'm not sure if above logic can be
implemented or if it is the best approach, someone has to digg a little
deep.

Just my opinion :)

- Asiri



 For this reason, alternative proposal: no use any special extention for
 WebDav - use standart openwebfolder extention (this extention is better
 because not need to manualy add file extentions and application paths).
 According this - need to change XWiki programming code for WebDav using in
 Firefox.

 I am not a specialist with XWiki programming, for this reason - sorry, if I
 write something stupid ... What do you think about my variant?

Re: [xwiki-users] xe 2.2.4: regression or operator error in OpenOffice server?

2010-04-01 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Neils,

I think we have a client multiwiki setup in 2.2.4 using OOo 3.1.1, However,
I will check this with a fresh multiwiki install. Can you try saving the
XWiki.OfficeImporterAdmin with PR and retry?

Anyway, we really need to dump this PR requirement and only check admin
rights for controlling OOo instance. And since now only the main wiki can
control the OOo instance, requiring PR seems an overhead.

Thanks.

 No error messages in the logs related to this are noted.

 The only clue I'm seeing is that openoffice itself is acting broken.

 I'm sorry to hear that. I'm pretty sure that if you're ready to spend a bit
 more time on this we can help you overcome the issues you're facing and
 help
 make XWiki a better product as a result. Open-Source software such as XWiki
 improves thanks to the feedback of its users and you can help us make more
 useful to the community.

 - Office plugin (the office 2007 ribbon has a very buggy behavior)
 

 Would you be ok to describe the problems you're experiencing in more detail
 and post screenshots and / or steps to reproduce on http://jira.xwiki.org/?
 I'm sure that Florin, the lead developer on XOffice, would be happy to help
 you make things work.


  - Document import (There is no documentation about version compatibility
  between the different elements)
 

 I have to agree that documentation isn't one of XWiki's strongest assets.
 However I've been using the document import feature on several XE 2.1.1
 instances where it works just fine thus I'm pretty sure you can make it
 work
 too. Asiri suggested several steps to debug, have you tried following them?


  - Usage with SQL Server 2005 is impossible. Works fine with PostgreSQL
  though.
 

 Is SQL Server 2005 a hard requirement? Which errors do you meet? Would you
 agree to report those errors on http://jira.xwiki.org/ ? Do you need XWiki
 to work with a product released 5 years ago that much? What's not enough it
 works fine with PostgreSQL?

 I can't continue testing such a product. To bad, it looked very good.
 

 It is and your feedback could help us make it that much better. I'd be very
 happy if you were to agree to reconsider your current stance and give a
 little of your time to the community in order to help us make XWiki fit
 your
 needs.

 Hi,

 I'm using XWiki Enterprise 2.1.1 which is fully configured in UTF-8. I
 noticed that when creating a page from an Office presentation, the
 resulting page incorrectly displays the accented characters in the
 french version of the presentation's navigation bar.

 The main page has a correct content type with a UTF-8 charset but the
 Iframe displaying the preso
 (/xwiki/bin/download/SPACE/PAGE/presentation.zip/output.html) has an
 incorrect charset of ISO-8859-1 even though the content of output.html
 is in UTF-8.

 Is this a known issue? Any way to correct it?


Really sorry for the late reply. I was busy these few days.

Yes, we are working on improving the presentation import and we plan to
integrate this into XE with office preview feature. But this might take some
time (XE 2.3 at least).

Thanks for reporting this.

Re: [xwiki-users] Is there a plan to support LDAP authentication for WebDAV feature

2010-01-16 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi,


 At the moment XWiki cannot support Digest Authentication and I'm not sure
  whether LDAP authentication can be done for WebDAV. I will look around a
 bit
  and get back to you on this.

 Basic or Diggest authentication are authentication entry point (which
 receive credentials), WebDav still have to use XWikiRightService to
 validate the credentials (authentication back-end where LDAP
 authenticator and others are).


Ok, I see.

In that case it should be possible to provide LDAP support without much
effort. I will have a look at how credential validation is currently done in
webdav module as make necessary changes.

Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] Is there a plan to support LDAP authentication for WebDAV feature

2010-01-16 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Milind,

Asiri's mention of Basic and Digest authentication raises another question
 in my mind. On reading the Digest Authentication  XWiki thread it seems
 that Digest authentication is probably out of question. Is there any
 documentation specifically for XWiki about how to setup https based login to
 send the user's password?


I'm not aware of such a documentation but I believe usual apache ssl
configuration (along with modjk for connecting tomcat) would work fine here.

However, If you have apache in front of tomcat (which is hosting XWiki) this
might pose a problem for XWiki WebDAV implementation. I remember once that a
user complained he was unable to configure XWiki WebDAV with apache sitting
in front of tomcat. I'm not sure of this issue but it got buried because
nobody had the time to look at WebDAV module at that time.

It would be great if you can check whether this claim is true :) May be it's
time we address this problem (if it is indeed addressable).

I plan to look into LDAP authentication issue next few days. Hope I'll be
able to fix it before I go on vacation ;)

Your interest and enthusiasm for XWiki will keep us going forward :)

- Asiri

[xwiki-users] [Idea] A generic document converter (xwiki-office-converter) on top of xwiki-officeimporter

2009-12-25 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Devs  Users,

With the new refactoring of officeimporter module, it's possible to
implement a generic office document converter on top of
xwiki-officeimporter. By a document converter I meant an xwiki application
where you can upload a .doc file and get it converted to a .pdf, .odt etc.

Supported formats will be those mentioned in
http://artofsolving.com/opensource/jodconverter/guide/supportedformats and
few more Office2007 formats.

Would this application be a good addition to XWiki?

Thanks.

- Asiri

PS: It would take about 2-3 days to fully implement and test the
application.

Re: [xwiki-users] Using WEBDAV in a Mozilla Firefox directly (without firefox extention)

2009-12-18 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Eugen,

On Sat, Dec 19, 2009 at 1:39 AM, Colesnicov Eugen ecolesni...@gmail.comwrote:


 As I understand, Xwiki use different portions of code for the different
 browsers - FF and IE - for the WEBDAV link. IE working directly with
 webdav,
 but firefox - is not. If I try to click on a webdav link (edit link) ff ask
 me for exetention FoxWiki. This is a special extention for XWiki and for
 this extention need to setup one by one all applications. But for IE - not
 need special plugins and not need any setup. Exists another plugin for FF -
 openwebfolder (http://openwebfolder.mozdev.org/) as a described in a home
 page of this extention: Internet Explorer itself does not contain any
 WebDAV support. However, it does offer hooks to Microsoft's WebDAV
 component, usually called web folders. Openwebfolder itself does not
 contain any platform-independant WebDAV related code. It just adds hooks so
 that Microsoft's Webfolder WebDAV client can be invoked in a similar way
 like in IE. My idea - try to use this extention for FF.


I remember trying out openwebfolder extension some times ago but as I
understood it's only capable opening webdav directories for display. Not
sure if it could fire the native application that would carry out the edit
operation.


 But everytime XWiki
 offer for me - download FoxWiki - as I understand, according to the XWiki
 template - attachmentsinline.vm. This template use different edit-calls for
 the different browsers. How I need to change attachmentsinline.vm for the
 using one edit-call and for FF and for IE? As I understand - with FF
 extention openwebfolder - all will be as of IE, if XWiki will give to user
 same edit-link like IE. (I tried in other webdav application - all
 working).


It would be great if you can investigate this a little bit :)

May be you could try editing attachmentsinline.vm (+ you might have to
edit webdav
applicationhttp://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/WebdavApplicationcode
as well) and get rid of the code which tries to install FoXWiki. This
would leave FoXWiki apart but I'm not sure how we can communicate with
openwebfolder (i.e. fire it up instead FoXWiki installation).

I would like to have a look into this but I'm occupied a bit these days.

Thanks.

Hi Peter,


i will send you the sample document directly so as not to spam the alias.


Thanks. I received your file and tested it both on XE 2.0.3 and XE snapshot
and it worked without issue.

However, I must ask you to do one more experiment to nail down this issue.
Sorry about having to ask for this much but this is because I cannot locally
reproduce your issue.

This is what you have to do:

1. Download
http://jodconverter.googlecode.com/files/jodconverter-3.0-beta-2-dist.zip

2. Extract this zip file into (say) $JOD_CONVERTER_HOME

3. Go inside $JOD_CONVERTER_HOME/lib and issue the following command:

java -jar jodconverter-3.0-beta-2.jar /path/to/sample.doc
/a/path/to/sample.html

The second path is a non-existent one and it is important that the target
extension is html.

4. Report your observations into the mailing list. (Whether sample.doc was
successfully imported into html and whether output images look fine).

Thanks for your time  patience :)

The images embedded inside Office document, how large are they? (very
high-resolution images?)

- If they are quite large, you might want to increase the time-out for
officeimporter operations (from xwiki.properties file).

- Now, if they are not that large (if the most trivial images also fail),
then it'll be great if you can provide us a sample failing document.

Also, there is a small test you can perform if you have access to a GUI in
your computer:

- Open the failing document in OpenOffice.

- Save the document as HTML into some place.

Does above operation work without issues? And what about images, are they
properly saved? and what type of images are they ? (The last question is
because OpenOffice has a problem with EMF/WMF image formats on windows and
linux boxes).

Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] office importer vs graphics

2009-12-04 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi,


With X turned on (runlevel 5 on the linux box) there's no improvement in
 the import of documents with images (still times out)

 I start xwiki automatically from an init script - so it doesn't pick up
 a DISPLAY environment variable.

 Can anyone confirm whether they can import documents with images with:

  - linux 2.6(.18)
  - openoffice.org 3.1.1
  - xwiki (standalone) 2.0.3


Here is my configuration:

- Fedroa 10 desktop (2.6.27.30-170.2.82.fc10.i686.PAE kernel)

- XE 2.0.3

- OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 (Build 9420)

Importing documents with images works fine.

Few questions for you:

1. Is openoffice server listening on port 8100? Can XE connect to that port?

2. What does the XE log tell you when this problem occurs.

Another possibility is that there might be a problem with your openoffice
profile. Usually this should not happen because jodconverter automatically
creates a profile. Just in case, in xwiki.properties file try uncommenting
openoffice.profile option and point it to a valid (initialized) profile
directory (like /home/user/.openoffice.org/3).

 The port should be fine since importing simple documents works.

 I also have a import issue on the 2.0.3 XE tag. It seems that the issue

 No, the profile is not created automatically, at least not every time. I
 had this issue on both Windows and Linux. You need to start  use Open
 Office so that it creates the folder, otherwise you need to create it
 yourself or change the office importer settings.


Well, if the OpenOffice server is started internal to XE AFAIR OpenOffice
profile should be created automatically. But if you are starting OpenOffice
server externally, then you have to provide a profile directory manually.

I'll investigate a bit further.

http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/8b73b26b701c3249?pli=1for
details.

Note that we've mentioned this on the documentation at
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/OfficeImporterApplication

For the *profilePath* configuration option, you need to have an OpenOffice
profile directory created somewhere on the system. This can be a problem in
server environments where launching OpenOffice is not an option. In such
situations you can create an OpenOffice profile on a local computer and
upload it to the server running XE.

Although it is under the wrong topic (internally managed..) it should be
under Externally managed... section (fixing that now).

Also jodconverter 3.0-beta-3 has been out for a while:

http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/6e4eeb3d7e9e63ca/fd3da52e33043f68?lnk=gstq=beta#fd3da52e33043f68

I did not have time to upgrade office importer. And I think they have few
API changes as well, will need some testing.

Thanks.

 I'll investigate a bit further.

  Just in case, in xwiki.properties file try uncommenting
  openoffice.profile option and point it to a valid (initialized) profile
  directory (like /home/user/.openoffice.org/3).

Re: [xwiki-users] office importer vs graphics

2009-12-04 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi,



  Refer:
 
 http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/8b73b26b701c3249?pli=1for
  details.
 
 I fell we're hijacking the thread with this. Even if jodconverter will
 create your profile directory you still need to update the office
 importer management app which requires an directory path to connect.
 You only get to call jodconverter while importing, and obviously after
 the connection is made. But you can't connect to the server without the
 folder in the first place.


Jodconverter will try to figure out the openoffice installation dir
automatically. But this is not very accurate, and I have metioned this on
the doc:

http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/OfficeImporterApplication

Default values for *homePath* and *profilePath* configuration options will
be calculated based on your operating environment. Even though this is the
case, this calculation might not yield accurate results for some systems. So
it's a good idea to configure these values manually by editing the
xwiki.properties file.

 Hi Asiri,

 Could this be also caused by the opened streams issue?
 JODConverter creates extra files when exporting embeded elements like
 images. Since this seems to work on the 2.0.5 snapshot but not on 2.0.3,
 is it possible that this is solved as a side effect of fixing

Yes, it's a possibility. But still, I can't be certain (it works fine for

 Yes, but even when it figures out the open office installation dir, it
 doesn't create the profile folder if it doesn't exist. This will cause
 the connection to fail.


As I said before, with jodconverter 3.0-beta-2 version, you don't need a
profile dir (if you are internally starting the OOo server).

Refer:
http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/8b73b26b701c3249?pli=1for

OOo is now started with -nofirststartwizard by default. This avoids the
   frequent problem of OOo refusing to work on a new machine because it's
   expecting somebody to accept its license dialogue even in -headless
mode.

It is after accepting the license agreement the profile dir gets created.
With the -nofirststartwizard flag you don't need a profile dir.

Hi Florin,

Hi,

 Sorry for the previous empty mail.
 All this quoting is not necessary, I never asked how jodconverter
 behaves nor do I trust the doc without testing it ;) My point is that
 just relying on that upgrade or specification didn't do the trick and we
 still have the issue. Please test the use case. :)


What do you think I have been testing for last year or so? :)

I have tested OfficeImporter in a lot of scenarios (mostly on linux boxes
though) but I cannot do exhaustive testing on all the environments. I know
we have a problem with OfficeImporter on fresh boxes but you have to
understand that currently I cannot do a lot of investigations regarding this
issue. An issue like this cannot be fixed just by going through the code, I
need some time to investigate. Please understand me, it's about priority,
not about technical details.

Why I pointed out the docs was because this problem never came across me
until recently, so without getting someone's clear confirmation that we
_really_ have an important issue, I'd rather not spend time on investigating
it.


 The server fails to start when you call the start() method in
 DefaultOpenOffice manager if you don't provide an valid folder.
 Note that there is a difference between profileDir and
 templateProfileDir which you set in the configuration. Maybe you could
 investigate this.
 Since this is not related to the current thread, i propose to move the
 discussion on jira. This is a low priority issue as it only happens on a
 fresh machine.


I agree, and I plan to investigate this issue (and there are several other
issues on my list), I just need to find time for them.

Yup, office importer can handle graphics without issues. I think this has
something to do with your particular operating environment, is this a
desktop system or a server? I suspect this is something with your X server
configuration but I'm not sure. I will check 2.0.3 myself to see if there
have been a regression.

 After copypaste of some word content into the import office panel some
 xml tags are visible in the imported text:

 ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office
 /


 To reproduce:
  1.  In Edit mode, selected Import Office Content.
  2.  In Office Importer, select Clipboard, copypaste some word text and
 select Import. (filter styles / don't filter styles doesn't matter)
  3.  Preview / Save and view


Could be related to this bug: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3994

I have fixed this in 2.0M2 but please create a JIRA issue with all the
details so that I can have a look.

Thanks.

 What is the problem that only Internet Explorer is affected ?



 Thanks in advance

Re: [xwiki-users] Two different WYSIWYG Editors?

 Hello!

 I have a question tot he new WYSWYG. First I have to say that this editor
 is
 really really much better than the old one, gratulations. Especially the
 new
 method to insert macros is quite well! In future will it be possible to add
 news macros to the standard ones? Especially the macro to add a list of all
 pages of this space would be very useful!



 But now my problem:

 I did a backup of my old xwiki content which was version 1.8 I think so.
 After installing the new one I ibstalled the new xar file for 1.9. Then I
 imported selected articles of the old wiki tot he new one. But now if I
 want
 to edit an old article I get also the old WYSIWYG editor and not the new
 one. This does not satisfy me, is there a possibility to change this?


Try this:

go to the wiki edit mode, change the page syntax to xwiki/2.0, this will ask
you if you want to convert the page into xwiki/2.0 syntax, say yes :)

Then xwitch back to wysiwyg editor, you should get the new wysiwyg editor
now.

Not sure if this is the optimal solution, but it should work.

Re: [xwiki-users] Problem with Office Importer

2009-06-26 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Florian,


 I can only use the externally managed server, there xwiki response that the
 connection can be established.
 This is an output from ps -Af:

 xwiki32518 1  0 09:02 pts/000:00:00
 /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin -headless -accept=s

 Therefor the server is working.
 As already mentioned in the last mails, there is nor error reported in the
 xwiki.log due this problem. It still does not work.

 This is my configuration file for the office Importer:


 #---
 ---
 # Settings for the OpenOffice server instance consumed by the
 OfficeImporter
 plugin

 #---
 ---

 #-# [Since 1.9M2]
 #-# Type of the openoffice server instance used by officeimporter plugin.

 #-# 1 - Externally managed (local) server instance.

 #-# Port number used for connecting to the openoffice server instance.
 openoffice.serverPort=8100

 #-# [Since 1.9M2]

 #-# [Since 1.8RC3]
 #-# Timeout for conversion tasks (in miliseconds) (serverType:0 only).
 # openoffice.taskExecutionTimeout=3


I just downloaded
http://maven.xwiki.org/releases/com/xpn/xwiki/products/xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb/1.9/xwiki-enterprise-jetty-hsqldb-1.9.zipand
tested the officeimporter. For me both internal / external
configurations work fine.

I suspect that your problem could be due to a missing openoffice profile.
Although with an externally configured oo server this cannot be the problem,
specially if xwiki is able to connect to the openoffice server.

Also, did you try several documents to see if the result is same? (Try a
very simple word document for an example).

I really can't help much from here because I cannot reproduce your error :(

Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] FAQTutorial broken in 1.9 and 2.0M1

Hi Aaron,

On Sat, Jun 27, 2009 at 1:55 AM, Aaron Digulla digu...@hepe.com wrote:

 Asiri Rathnayake schrieb:

  So, when you complete the tutorial there should be three wiki pages
 created:
 
  1. One document for the Class definition (FAQs.FAQClass)
 
  2. One document for the sheet (FAQs.FAQClassSheet)
 
  3. One document for the template (FAQs.FAQClassTemplate)
 
  Questions for you:
 
  1. Do you have all these three documents?
  2. Are the syntax of all these documents set to xwiki/2.0
 
  3. On the sheet  template, are you sure you have the correct wiki code?
  That is sheet document should be referring the correct class document
  (FAQs.FAQClass) and the template document should be referring the
 correnct
  sheet document (FAQs.FAQSheet).

 Okay, I think I got it now: After creating the class and the sheet, the
 document you see is empty (the sheet). This is confusing since the class
 exists and it has properties, so why is XWiki not displaying them?


Because a 'sheet' (as described in the tutorial) is only a presentation
template for an _OBJECT_ of a specific class. So, if you do not have an
object of a class attached to that page you won't see any output.

Think of it like this:

1. You create a class XWiki.MyClass

2. You create a 'sheet' (XWiki.MyClassSheet) that knows how to 'present'
objects of type XWiki.MyClass

3. You create a page (MySpace.MyPage) and add it an object of type
XWiki.MyClass

4. Inside the content of MySpace.MyPage you delegate the presentation of
your XWiki.MyClass object to  XWiki.MyClassSheet. (This is what is done with
the includeForm directive)

5. The 'template' is only part of the class wizard to make (page+object)
creation easier.


I strongly agree with vincent here. Neither 'sheet' nor 'template' are core
constructs of xwiki, they are just part of the class wizard which is an
specific (yet another) application.

For an example, I can do this:

1. I create a class (XWiki.Person)

- Note that it doesn't have to be 'XWiki.PersonClass', although the class
wizard application needs it to be so.

2. I create a web application (html forms) that asks a user to insert first
name and last name of a person.

3. When the user submits the form, I create a new 'Object' of type
'XWiki.PersonClass' and add it to the Main.People page (say).

4. Users can add as many person records to Main.People as they wish (using
my application or dierctly by editing objects of Main.People)

5. I create a 'sheet' (XWiki.PeopleDisplay) that can present a list of
(XWiki.Person) objects.

- Again it doesn't have to be XWiki.PersonSheet

- As opposed to the FAQ tutorial, here XWiki.PeopleDisplay is displaying a
list of XWiki.Person objects.

6. I include (XWiki.PeopleDisplay) in Main.People page's content
(includeForm).

7. Voila!  When you visit Main.People page, you see a list of persons added
so far. Displayed so nicely by the sheet (XWiki.PeopleDisplay).

8. I can edit the 'sheet' (XWiki.PeopleDisplay) any time I want to chage the
look of the persons list.

9. All of these can be done without compiling a single line of code,
everything is built by editing wiki pages. And if you want, you can put ajax
to the mix!!! (again by editing wiki pages).

10. (9) is what is s cool about xwiki :)


I only hope I didn't make your understanding of xwiki worse :)

Thanks.

 Hello XWiki users,

 I'm trying to configure OpenOffice server for XWiki 1.8 installation
 (xwiki.properties). Operating system where all is installed is OpenSuse
 11.1. OpenOffice 3 is installed. For this distribution there is
 /usr/share/ooo3 directory with program subdirectory, but soffice.bin XWiki
 is looking for is not there. Instead, I'm able to manually start OpenOffice
 server using /usr/bin/soffice script.


Can you look into /usr/bin/soffice and see where your soffice.bin file is
located?

This issue needs to be addressed in jodconverter rather than in XWiki. I
have asked Mirko a similar question some time ago:
http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/5300d34d71dfbefc?pli=1

According to the current jodconverter implementation, it looks for a
OFFICE_HOME/program/soffice.bin file. And it will not work if this structure
is not present.



 Is there any way to configure XWiki to use /usr/bin/soffice to start
 OpenOffice server, or to configure XWiki to use OpenOffice server already
 started outside of XWiki (e.g. using custom startup script) ?


Previously this is the way officeimporter used to work. But with the upgrade
to jodconverter-3.0 beta, this is no longer possible :( I need to dig around
a bit and see if this mode can be supported.

Thanks.

 Asiri,

 I uploaded both xar files in my virtual wiki and all is ok, i have the new
 icon available. When i click on it i'm able to see the path and the profile
 path for open office
 My values are :

 You can override Server Path and Server Profile variables through
 WEB-INF/xwiki.properties file.
 Server Path  C:/Program Files/OpenOffice.org 2.4/
 Server Profile C:/Documents and Settings/BB03545/Application
 Data/OpenOffice.org2
 Server State Not Running
 ***

 When i select Start and click on the button, i come back to the same page
 with a message Inadequate privileges.
 If i look at the console, no error is displayed in it. I had a look in the
 source code but it seems that the exception is rised in many places.


Ok, this is something i'm not able to explain very clearly. And we are
working on a custom constructed XE installation here :)

Do you (person who imported the officeimporter application) have programming
rights? Make sure you do, it's required. Did you try to start the OpenOffice
server as admin or some other user?

  Hi Asiri,
 
  Thanks for the advice.
  I put the jodconverter beta jar in the WEB-INF/lib and the server is able
  to start but not to import a file
 
  I started Open Office like said on the page (i checked both windows
 process
  run). If i use the version 1.8 of both jar i have the bug we discussed
  about.
  If i stop the xwiki server (keep ooffice started) and replace the both
 jar
  (snapshot and beta) and restart the server, when i try to import a file i
  have as result an error box with only $officeimporter.getMessage() in
 it
  The stack trace in the server is :
 

 Ok, you should use the officeimporter snapshot and jodconverter beta jars.
 But You must also use the latest officeimporter application:


 http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/applications/xwiki-application-officeimporter/1.5-SNAPSHOT/xwiki-application-officeimporter-1.5-20090325.112122-7.xar

 And the latest administration application:


 http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/applications/xwiki-application-administration/1.9-SNAPSHOT/xwiki-application-administration-1.9-20090325.112027-7.xar

 Once you do this, you should not start the oo server external to the XE..
 it
 should be done from the Admin interface and there is a seperate admin UI
 for
 managing the OO server process. And you can configure the oo server in
 WEB-INF/xwiki.properties file (by specifying oo installation and oo profile
 and other configuration options)

 These new features have not yet been documented because I was busy with
 several more new features (like splitting documents into multiple wiki
 pages
 while importing). I wish to document them soon.

 Thanks

 Hello all,

 I try to use the office importer application after migrating my 1.7.1 to

 For all documents i try to import i have this message : Internal error

 Looking in console messages on the server i found that :

 It seems that the application tries to create a temporary folder with ':'
 in the name wich is prohibited under Windows.
 Is there a way to change that from the interface ?


This is a very unfortunate. And I'm afraid there is no way to change this
setting from the UI either. I have created an issue for this @
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3406 it will be fixed for 1.8.1 
1.9M1 releases.

Note:- I did not try to reproduce this bug yet (kind of busy) but from your
description and looking at the code it seems quite possible.

Thanks.

I tried this on my XP installation but I could not reproduce it. It is
possible that this occurs when there are multiple wikis configured or ldap
authentication  used where the getUser() method returns something like
wiki:XWiki.UserName. So it's still a bug, will be fixed.

 Hi!

 Is it possible to import a Visio diagram (with links) into XWiki page? I
 mean the
 functionality like in Sharepoint: you save the diagram as a web page and
 then import
 it.


Currently we do have a office import application (demo:
http://91.121.237.216/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/OfficeImporter) but it doesn't
support visio diagrams or raw html documents. But for sure, we will support
raw html documents in near future.

Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] WebDAV.XWikiUI.V1.PATCH

2008-12-19 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Karsten,

I do not think it is a Vista issue because if I install Microsoft Office
 2003 on the vista test machine the file are opened in read write mode.

 I think that the problem is within Microsoft Office 2007 and not in Vista.


It seems like this problem is faced by many webdav implementations (googling
for office+2007+webdav+readonly returns many positive hits). Anyway, I'm
unable look into this issue seriously at the moment because I don't have a
Vista box. Btw, did you go through
http://blogs.msdn.com/sharepoint/archive/2007/10/19/known-issue-office-2007-on-windows-vista-prompts-for-user-credentials-when-opening-documents-in-a-sharepoint-2007-site.aspx?
**It seems to have a potential solution under How to place Office 2007
applications into Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode.

Btw, on which port are you executing xwiki server? I think for windows
clients it MUST to be on port 80. But since you got it to work with office
2003, i beleive you are already running the server at port 80 :)

If I can be of further help just let me know.


You have already helped us! and it's really appreciated :)

Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] WebDAV.XWikiUI.V1.PATCH

2008-12-18 Thread Asiri Rathnayake
Hi Karsten,

It is correct that a webdav client reports /pages and not /spaces. But
 after I upgraded the xwiki-webdav-*.jar file it stil reports /pages
 however the upgrade fixet the 500 server error.

 The only issue I have left is to get the edit attachment to work with
 Vista, it opens the files in read-only mode.

 Is it true that the user Editing the attachments must be a member og
 Admin? If not I think that is a bug in the system.


Anyone with 'Edit' rights can edit the attachments. You can verify this at
http://91.121.237.216/xwiki/bin/view/WebDAV/ by registering a new account
and trying to edit one of the attachments. If you still can't edit the
attachments there, that means there is a problem specific to vista. Can you
verify this ?

Also, are you using the latest version of webdav ?
http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/xwiki-webdav/1.8-SNAPSHOT/xwiki-webdav-1.8-20081218.123600-108.jar

 Hi Asiri

 The problem has 2 aspects it seams.

 1. The problem turned out not to be a vista problem but an microsoft
 office 2007 issue. I have googled for a solution and what I found was to
 copy xwiki to tomcat's ROOT directory but xwiki webdav does not like that.
 the $xwiki.webdav.getURL() returns nothing.


You should use the xwiki-root-webapp which was exactly meant to solve this
problem [
http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/tools/xwiki-rootwebapp/1.1-SNAPSHOT/xwiki-rootwebapp-1.1-20081218.144304-589.war
]

Deploy this war file as your root webapp and deploy the xwiki webapp as
usual and you are good to go.


2. If I try to use the latest xwiki-webdav-1.8-20081218.123600-108.jar I
 get this error when I try to reload my xwiki


Sorry, I should have mentioned this but didn't came into mind. The latest
webdav version Uses XWikiDavFilter and XWikiDavServlet instead of DavFilter
 DavServlet. So you need to edit your web.xml file accordingly. Open your
/webapps/xwiki/WEB-INF/web.xml and find the following entries :

!-- Filter used to 'steal' webdav requests made to the application root --
filter
  filter-nameDavFilter/filter-name
  filter-classcom.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.DavFilter/filter-class
/filter

AND

!-- WebDAV servlet --
servlet
  servlet-namewebdav/servlet-name
  servlet-classcom.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.DavServlet/servlet-class
/servlet

Then change them to :

!-- Filter used to 'steal' webdav requests made to the application root --
filter
  filter-nameDavFilter/filter-name
  filter-classcom.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.XWikiDavFilter/filter-class
/filter

AND

!-- WebDAV servlet --
servlet
  servlet-namewebdav/servlet-name
  servlet-classcom.xpn.xwiki.plugin.webdav.XWikiDavServlet/servlet-class
/servlet

I think you need to do both of these tasks to make it work. I'm sorry about
having to drag you this long but it's a feature we haven't released yet, so
there is some trouble... ;)
