This is actually part of 7.4.1 (see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12920).

7.4.1 is planned to be released today but it's possible we are a
little late on it and that it's release Monday, but in any case it's
coming.

Is there a specific reason to not use 7.4 for your new wiki ?

Re: [xwiki-users] MyXWiki: migrate users to a permanent XWiki instance

[Thomas Mortagne]

You can "add the attribute", the issue is that the document you are
importing contain an attribute that 6.4 does not understand.

I think we need to modify the importer to just ignore what it does not
know. In the meantime all you could do is remove the Timezone property
in the XAR but this is not so easy if you have lots of users.

Re: [xwiki-users] MyXWiki: migrate users to a permanent XWiki instance

[Gerritjan Koekkoek]

I've tried two scenario's.

Export a single user by going to the local user page and export as XAR
Then import that XAR in 6.4.7 
I get the selection list and I select the user page
Then click import 
Importing XWiki.JoseLaheij.xar: Import successful
0 Document(s) installed
0 Document(s) skipped
1 Document(s) with error
List of erroneous documents
XWiki/JoseLaheij.xml

When navigating to the erroneous document:
Not Found

The requested URL /xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/JoseLaheij/xml was not found on this 
server.

The url looks a bit strange:
http://www.waihonapedia.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki%2FJoseLaheij/xml
(the %2F instead of /)

The other scenario i used was using the wiki preferences on myXWiki and click 
export.
Without any dialog a backup.xar is created
When importing the backup.xar on 6.4.7 file is successfully attached, but when 
clicking to import there is no page shown although the size is 17MB

XAR exported in 7.3 are supposed to be compatible with 6.4.x (or 1.0
for that matter). Unless you use things like sub space which simply
don't exist in 6.4 (but even in this case you will get your document
imported, just not exactly in the same place).

Do you get an error when you import it in the UI or in the log ?

I just reproduced it by exporting a user from my tuska.myxwiki.org
wiki and trying to import it in 6.4.6. Working on it.

Re: [xwiki-users] MyXWiki: migrate users to a permanent XWiki instance

[Gerritjan Koekkoek]

Yes, we have a few applications that are developed on 6.4
Also found it difficult to get used to child-child-child page navigation. 
Especially when linking to pages you know that exist but can not be found.

But I definitely believe dropping the space structure will be the way forward 

Wait for more intuitive page finding when linking pages

So in the case of a user the issue if that 7.4 users contain a
property unknown from 6.4.x (the Timezone).

[xwiki-users] MyXWiki: migrate users to a permanent XWiki instance

[Gerritjan Koekkoek]

Hi,


The last half year we have used a free wiki from myXWiki.org, thanks a lot.

Now we have decides to have a dedicated XWiki. Is it possible to migrate the 
local users in that myXWiki instance to the new wiki.

I tried to export one user as XAR and import it, but it does not convert to a 
user-object

The same problem with a macro page with the XWikiMacro and XWikiMacroParameters 
objects.

It results in empty wiki pages in the new wiki


myXWiki = 7.3

The new wiki is on 6.4.x

So maybe a downgrade export/import not possible?

[Thomas Mortagne]

XAR exported in 7.3 are supposed to be compatible with 6.4.x (or 1.0
for that matter). Unless you use things like sub space which simply
don't exist in 6.4 (but even in this case you will get your document
imported, just not exactly in the same place).

Do you get an error when you import it in the UI or in the log ?
