Hi, Darina, As you know this is a very generic error message, so I think some more research is due to see what is happening there. I can think of: 1. What XWiki release are you installing? What servlet container? I don't know it these could matter here, but it is always useful information for people eager to help here! 2. Could you reimport the .xar file into the controller (just try with some documents)? 3. Does this happens with several web browsers?

[xwiki-users] XWiki micro applications
Hello, I'm thinking about introducing XWiki as as general intranet system in the the company I work for. Currently we have a dozens different tables, list etc. mostly in Excel, wich are used (or better abused) as shared task list, inventory list and a lot more. In other words: Quite a mess! >From the docs, it appears the XWiki platform provides some functionality for creating such micro application directly in XWiki. Has anybody actually made any experiences (good or bad) in implementing them in a small (50 users) enterprise environment?

Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki Vs. MediaWiki
hello well from time to time the http://www.wikimatrix.org/ gives an answer. i would argue it is first of all a personal opinion. one will find multiple wikis that do the job. but only one with a better acceptance than others. in addition it depends into what environment you want to put your wiki in. if a lot of things are php based your're better off with media wiki. integration into other tools will be easier. if youre java based xwiki will win the competition. even if php / java integration is possible it will be more work. also mediawiki is not the ultimate solution. the acl capabilities are rudimentary. its very unstructured. categories dont help. but it is the perfect solution for wikipedia and a lot of other sites. but it is not perfect for manuals for software or software projects. the purpose of xwiki is different (or seems different for me). regards ossi Kamna Jain schrieb: > Hello again, > > Thanks a lot for the reply to my request Vincent. > I am further encouraged to start using XWiki because of such good > participation from all. > > Since, I have just started looking at it, I am also concerned about the > issues llike how is XWiki different from MediaWiki. > Why should one choose to use XWiki if there exists a wiki that has been > around for a while- like the mediawiki. > > No offense meant.

It is interesting to note that it is not the "default" mediawiki that's used in wikipedia at least for one reason: the search is actually lucene based... (at least so it was two years ago) whereas that doesn't come out of the box at all in mediawiki. Having now played with XWiki since a while, I dare say it's a power- beast you can do kilometers with, far beyond what I know of MediaWiki (i.e. I'd be programming PHP since long there to do the same). With the large availability of further libraries in Java, I think XWiki is the best choice if you're looking into spending time and extend it a lot. Maybe a few usability things are slightly more polished in MediaWiki for its default usage... but as Ossi said, as soon as you wish a bit more rights-management, MediaWiki is already difficult to manage whereas XWiki starts to be the perfect toy! paul smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki micro applications
Stefan, is a web-platform what you meant when asking a "micro-application". I have a feeling that you might expect something more such as desktop platforms. If a web-platform is what you meant then Vincent is definitely right. I am currently implementing a similar work (on i2geo.net) and it works well. paul Le 26 janv. 08 à 18:37, Vincent Massol a écrit : From the docs, it appears the XWiki platform provides some functionality for creating such micro application directly in XWiki.

[xwiki-users] simple Groovy script
Hi all,
I included this quite simple Groovy script in a XWiki page:
<% println "Hello World"
list = ["Rod", "James", "Chris"]
list.each { println it }
println "${list.size()}" %>
And I get...
Hello World 3
But nothing about printing list.
The same script works fine in groovyConsole being the output:
Hello World
Rod
James
Chris
3
Please, what am I doing wrong? Must I expect that a script working in
groovyConsole do the same in a XWiki page?
Thanks for your help,
Ricardo

Re: [xwiki-users] Importing .xar in virtual wiki
Hi Ricardo, Thanks so much for your hint re web browsers! Mozilla wasn't installed on the web server where I was deploying the wiki, and I used Microsoft IE - obviously that caused the problem. I just installed Mozzila and tried again and everything worked properly. (I use Tomcat 5.5 and MySQL 5.0) The only problem I still have is that the virtual wiki is not visible from outside campus (the main wiki is visible), perhaps this is related to the way the network pointer has been set by the system admin? Thanks again!
