I saw that regression last night when upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2.3. There's also two other regressions, which are potentially worse, since you could lose access to the root-wiki Admin account (xwiki:XWiki.Admin). You then have to change xwiki.cfg, login as superadmin to fix XWikiAllGroup and XWikiAdminGroup , because names that were originally 'xwiki:XWiki.Admin" turned into "xwiki:xwiki:XWiki.Admin" which causes the user to lose membership in the group. Finally, the superadmin account itself has a regression. When you login to that account, you get a warning saying the superadmin account email hasn't been validated (I have email validation set on all accounts ... the bug is that superadmin requires an exception for validation). I'm not sure if this is related, but logging into the superadmin account puts Xwiki in a "plain HTML" mode (No skin/javascript/etc), so most operations aren't possible. Somehow I managed to navigate to administrative pages anyways, and got it back to a state where things are working again. In general, things are not acting "stable" -- i was able to get Xwiki out of the state where logging in as "Admin" didn't give administrative (or even edit) rights. And then after a reboot/restart, it went back to the old behavior again, and I had to login as superadmin once more to fix things. Now that I've caught the issue with "xwiki:xwiki:XWiki..." i'll be fixing this in all subwikis and see whether the issue w/ losing all rights is related to restarting or something else. I am sure I never entered "xwiki:xwiki:" in any of the group documents --- something in XWiki after 2.1 ended up rewriting these values (??). >From #xwiki: > > (11:54:55 PM) NielsMayer: i think 2.2.3 still has a regression w/r/t Admin user on root wiki (in virtual/multiwiki setup)... after you login as "Admin" you get error messages all over "Failed to execute macro: include" ... logging in as superadmin shows AllUsers and Admin users as correct. (11:56:07 PM) NielsMayer: this was not in a fresh wiki install, but rather an existing install upgrading from 2.10 to 2.2.3 (03/26/2010 12:02:38 AM) NielsMayer: turns out it was because XWikiAllGroup and XWikiAdminGroup had xwiki:XWiki.Admin instead of "XWiki.Admin" ... (12:02:48 AM) NielsMayer: next!. Here's an example of one of the group documents with the odd prefixing bug: XWikiAdminGroup > Last modified by Xwiki Administrator on 2009/08/07 09:40 > Members > Xwiki Administrator (xwiki:xwiki:XWiki.Admin) Niels http://nielsmayer.com _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
