Re: [xwiki-users] [ANN] XWiki 6.0 Release Candidate 1 released
Just some feedback: I tried to run the ZIP version, but when I launch start_xwiki.bat, a windows cmd screen flashes and nothing happens. With a bit of excellent timing hitting the Print Scrn button, I was able to capture the cmd screen :-) It displays: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jr7\bin\java.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Which is true, as I havn't installed Java7 :-) It would be nice if the windows cmd would not close, so a user could read the actual error message!

To make Search Suggest running as it was, we have to add: q=__INPUT__* Is it done by puprpose or it is a bug and I have to jira it? On purpose. I did it as part of http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-10051 (check the documentation links). The reason I dropped the * (star) is because: (1) Prefix matching is costly If Search Suggest is too costly, we can turn it off completely :) Not if there is a way to improve it. My idea was to offer by default something that performs well, but I agree that it could also be seen as an optimization. (2) The search suggest is not a filter (in the sense that you have a list of item and you type some text and it filters the items starting with that text). Search is more complex. The search text is analysed, stop words are removed, etc. (3) It was a fake prefix matching, because if you typed more words, only the last word was matched as prefix (not the entire text). All the other were analysed. IMHO, suggest means we prefer suggest more than exact search results. What I mean, that all languages wich have declensioin are too sensitive to the __INPUT__* search. Usual use case for such a search is: you enter root of the word and get back suggest of ALL forms of the word. Even in English, which is much less declensionable, singular and plural is the case. E.g. wiki input will give only exact much and won't show wikis. Thus, it makes Solr Sugges much less relevant. typing wiki (without the quotes) definitely matches wikis if the document (default) language is English. That is not the problem. The problem is if you type wik. In my use case: - Default language is Russian - Search needed for comments I didn't find any other solution, besides __INPUT__* search. As you said, you can get back the previous behaviour using q=__INPUT__* Yes, it was the firs I did, 'cause nearly to all my search strings Solr gave me no results. It wasn't so severe before the upgrade. :) IMHO, it's better to leave __INPUT__* in default settings and amend documentation with performance/relevancy issues tricks for Solr Suggest tuning. * would be useful for most use cases, and would make Suggest effective, especially for new users who start playing with XWiki. I do agree, that in the high load projects it could be essential to tweak default behaviour or turn it off at all. I'd like to hear what others think about this. Do simple users expect the search suggest to perform a prefix match or a standard match? In other words, when a user types in the search suggest, does he type the whole word or just a few letters (a prefix)? Prefix is more flexible from search point of view. But, sure it would be interesting to carry out a survey. Again, note that the previous behaviour was applying prefix matching only for the last word in the search query, not for all of the words in the query. IMHO, for Search - yes all words are essential, for suggest, most probably prefix. It is my way of searching. :) Thanks, Marius Let me know what yo think, Marius Kind regards, Dmitry ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Kind regards, Dmitry Kind regards, Dmitry ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [xwiki-users] Using XWiki without dynamic extension manager features
Hi Sam, Once XWiki's properly installed with the default content in your main wiki, you can deactivate the extension manager and distribution wizard in WEB-INF/xwiki.properties. XWiki will still function with the exception of being able to install extensions. Ludovic 2014-04-23 19:22 GMT+02:00 Sam McCall sammcc...@google.com: Hi xwiki-users, When I start up XWiki, it appears to fetch java packages from the a maven repository (nexus.xwiki.org). This happens without installing any extensions etc. Is this expected? Is there a way to install and configure XWiki such that a static codebase is used, and packages are never fetched? I only need a pretty simple set of functionality: - Basic page editing - Storage using a JDBC driver - Rendering support for a few markups, e.g. markdown - Authorization using a custom backend Cheers, Sam ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users -- Ludovic Dubost Founder and CEO Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [xwiki-users] Using XWiki without dynamic extension manager features
No it does not fetch any extension. It just try to get more informations about jar it could find in the classpath from the extension reposirories. You can simply tell it it does not have any repository in xwiki.properties if you really want it to do do those requests.
