Re: [xwiki-users] Registered Users

2010-01-29 Thread Jared R. Parrish
I appreciate your feedback. I will do this.

I have another question. I noticed that if a user registers on the initial 
logon page, the email that they receive does not include the link to activate 
account. It just shows the code. So for some reason, its not converting it.  
However, if I login as an admin, I can register them from preferences area and 
the link will show up in their email that way.

Hi Jared,

 Is there anyway to get email notifications when new users register?  I 
 figured I would put a watch on the preferences, but that didn't seem to help.
 
 Any help would be appreciated.

Note that in the future, a good solution would be to put users in a special 
space and just watch that space.

Maybe that's the best for now: simply watch the XWiki space. Normally there 
shouldn't be new documents created in it except for users.

more complex answer
This feature is not built in but you can code it in the following manner:

- You could do that by using a groovy script in a page that registers for 
document events and then check if the XWiki.XWikiUsers object was added to the 
document.
- If so then send an email using the mailsender plugin.

That requires a bit of development knowledge but we can help you.

For an example of how to code a groovy page that listens to document events:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/GroovyNotificationTutorial

Note that the source you'll get in the onEvent() method will be a XWikiDocument 
object. You'd need to check the source code or javadoc to find out the API you 
can use on XWikiDocument.

This looks like a bug. Could you report it on http://jira.xwiki.org/ ?

Re: [xwiki-users] Problem with PDF and RTF export on JBOSS AS

2010-01-29 Thread Sergiu Dumitriu
On 01/29/2010 01:31 PM, adoro wrote:

 We cannot generate PDFs and RTFs running XE 2.1.1 on JBoss Application
 server. 5.1.0 GA
 On Tomcat the same PDF/RTF export works fine despite the warning that some
 fonts are missing (impl.PdfExportImpl - Starting with 1.5, XWiki uses the
 WEB-INF/fonts/ directory as the font directory, and it should contain the
 FreeFont (http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/freefont/) fonts. FOP cannot
 access this directory. ...)

 The difference in the xwiki configuration between JBoss and Tomcat
 deployment is:
 we have to delete some libraries from xwiki WEB-INF/lib directory ( see
 http://n2.nabble.com/XWIKI-installation-error-on-JBOSS-5-0-1-PLEASE-HELP-td2752574.html#a2753513)

 xercesImpl-2.8.1.jar,
 xml-apis-1.3.04.jar
 xml-apis-ext-1.3.04.jar
 xmlParserAPIs-2.0.2.jar
 otherwise we could not started JBoss.

 Has someone similar troubles? How can I work around?

There's a missing class, which should be in xml-apis-ext-1.3.04.jar. If 
you removed it, does it appear anywhere else in the classpath? If not, 
then perhaps you should try leaving just this jar in the xwiki libs.

[xwiki-users] Access Control Inadvertent Lockout

2010-01-29 Thread Meng Wu
Hello everyone,

I posted the following question around a week ago, but it still hasn't been 
answered, so I thought I'd give it another try. 

Basically, I have been having problems with the automatic updating feature on 
the access rights page. The Ajax automatic updating mechanism inadvertently 
locks me out of the access rights page when I try to change the rights by 
cycling through them. The cycle of rights is
Blank (Default) - Allow - Deny - back to Default, etc. Because of the 
automatic access control updating feature, when I cycle through Deny in order 
to get to Default, I am automatically denied
viewing rights, and thus locked out of my own page. This problem becomes 
burdensome as countless users will regularly have to contact Admins to get them 
to unlock the pages.

Are there any good
ways of getting around this problem? Are there ways of implementing dropdown 
menus instead of square checkboxes, or having a longer delay when you cycle 
through access control options?

Regards,

Felix Wu

Yes, this is known, and will be fixed soon (hopefully in 2.3). 
Apparently the instant save was not such a good idea after all.

A quick solution would be to make shift+click cycle the other way.

A faster solution that doesn't require any changes would be to edit 
rights using the object editor instead of the rich interface. Rights are 
normal XWiki objects like any others.

 There is a plan to upgrade version of XE in JUG FRAM ?

Could you share a link?

Hello Max,

Yes, we have this in the pipe and did not forget about it.
Right now we can not engage firmly on a date, but we'll come back to you 
soon - hopefully not too late :)
