[xwiki-users] How can we know if XWiki is running?

XWiki can be started in various ways. In any case it's not xwiki that you start but your servlet container so the question is how to start your servlet container and that depends on your container but you should check your container's documentation. It could be started on the command line, as a service, or probably even by other ways. Thanks -Vincent ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

[xwiki-users] How to keep jetty running?
Hi, As I explained it in several messages, I'm trying to use XWiki on a remote server. We're accessing it with a ssh connection (using Putty). First, I tried to install the war manually and it seems that I succeed but we couldn't access to the XWiki page although Tomcat seems to work fine. I couldn't find anybody able to help me on this matter and I needed XWiki to be installed so I choose to install the standalone version. But there's a little problem. XWiki is working just fine but we have to start jetty with a command on our putty terminal and if we shut the window where the commad has been entered, we shut down jetty... so we can't access XWiki anymore if the window isn't open Is there a way to keep Jetty running without having to keep the terminal window open? That said, I must say that I've been surprised by the difficulty to install XWiki with both method (especially the first one). Even with a good tutorial about how to install xwiki manually on a Debian Etch 4.02 we still had a problem. And with the standalone version, although it works just fine, there still is this little problem with Jetty (But I hope somebody will be able to help with this). It's been difficult to find help all over the web. Don't you think all the problems that we can't get should be put in one place? It would avoid for someone trying to install xwiki to spend hours looking at N sites and N pages to find only one information. I hope I'll get to fix my problems and I'll be happy to share it afterwards for people facing the same issues. It would be really easier if all the installation problems like this (exception, etc...) were listed on a unique page leading to the right solution rather than having to look to multiples threads, forums, blogs and websites But that's just my opinion.

Re: [xwiki-users] How to keep jetty running?
Sorry to butt-in into this thread. Something that maybe someone from the community could do is to provide for some platform-combinations a specific installation routine (no, I don't know how to do that, but I do know that this is possible). So if you have a fresh Debian 4 Etch installation, you would maybe pick the installation package (Deb?), which installs xwiki with all the dependencies. I'm aware of the fact, that you have several combination possibilities (and the update/upgrade procedure). I'm just saying that's maybe something that could lower some barriers for the people and get more people to use XWiki.

And with the standalone version, although it works just fine, there still is this little problem with Jetty (But I hope somebody will be able to help with this). It's been difficult to find help all over the web. Don't you think all the problems that we can't get should be put in one place? It would avoid for someone trying to install xwiki to spend hours looking at N sites and N pages to find only one information. I hope I'll get to fix my problems and I'll be happy to share it afterwards for people facing the same issues. It would be really easier if all the installation problems like this (exception, etc...) were listed on a unique page leading to the right solution rather than having to look to multiples threads, forums, blogs and websites But that's just my opinion. Like Vincent said already, it is not our job to describe how to install a container. The documentation we have is enough, and it describes the needed steps from XWiki's perspective: 0. Install Java 1. Install a container. 2. Install a database. 3. Copy the xwiki war to the container 4. Configure the xwiki--database connection, which is pretty well documented 5. Start the container. The only XWiki specific thing is #4, only one out of 6 steps. The problem is that there are many possible containers, databases and other optional touches, like an apache httpd frontend, virtual hosts and DNS. caches, LDAP and so on. And when taking into account all the possible combinations, there are too many configurations to describe. For those that don't know how to install the needed environment, we have a simple .zip distribution that offers a basic working wiki. We cannot document how to install Tomcat, as that is a completely different project. We cannot document how to install Jetty either. And I'm sure you know that mysql or postgresql are not our responsibility. This is how linux works, there are many components, or services, that cooperate and integrate into each other. In Windows, clicking an .exe is enough to install an application because it does not cooperate. A windows application is usually an isolated binary blob that doesn't use anything other than the windows API, and doesn't offer anything another application might use. That's why installing something in Windows is easy. And we have such an installer for XWiki, too. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Re: [xwiki-users] XE Misc questions
Hi Guillaume Thanks, Will deploy the bulletin app again and look for the div. It's interesting though because I won't get the issue until I posted an article on the bulletin. Once I posted, the problem still exists even after I navigated away from the bulletin and go to any pages. Re: the panel, I have opened an jira as per Vincent suggested. Any idea about the Space Manager please? or Spaces management interface for XE? Thanks, Art. Guillaume Lerouge wrote: Hi Arthur, 1. Is there a Space Manager available for XE ? I am planning to setup about 60+ spaces so would be nice to have a interface to manage them. I saw there is one for the Workspace, is there something similar for the XE? 2. With the new Admin application, where is the Panel field located? In the past there is an option we can see the Panel list (in text) so we can edit. Does does it all rely on the drag and drop now? You can still access it at : http://server/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/ 3. Has anyone done Site Minder integration for the authentication? The Admin Guide mentioned briefly saying it can be done as Custom Authentication but no details. 4. Any news on the Rating feature please? would like to allow users to rate the pages usefulness We're working on it right now but it isn't finished yet. Once the module is out it will be published in the release notes. 5. I deployed the Bulletin Application. After I posted an article on the forum, the right panel (the menu etc) went to the bottom of the screen. Even when I left the forum and went back to the other pages, the right panel was till at the bottom of the screen. Not sure if its CSS issue. Has anyone seen it before? Looks like a closing /div is missing somewhere... Since it's happening on all pages I guess this must be related to a panel that is present on all those pages... Could you try to identify where the div is missing using a tool such as firebug so that we can correct it ?
