after i install flavor…i got this error message when i restart xwiki
[ACTIVE INSTALLS PING THREAD]
why this happen?

It means you machine cannot reach extensions.xwiki.org. You can try to ping it from the machine.

anandhaibs · March 20, 2019, 1:04pm

i can not make any ping outside my network… and there is no internet connection…i need complete offline installation…

vmassol · March 20, 2019, 1:29pm

so it’s normal to get this error… what were you expecting?

vmassol · March 20, 2019, 1:29pm

For installation see https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Installation/

And especially https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Installation/#HInstallingwithoutinternetconnection for offline installation.

You should take a look at https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Installation/#HExtensionRepositories.

You unziped the content of the archive directly in this folder and not in a subfolder, right ? Have you restarted after that ?

anandhaibs · March 21, 2019, 8:59am

yess…and then i am restarted…
pls see the path…

tmortagne · March 21, 2019, 10:30am

And the XIP you download and unziped is the 10.7 one ?

anandhaibs · March 21, 2019, 10:32am

No…

xwiki-platform-distribution-flavor-xip-11.1.zip is the XIP file and
xwiki-platform-distribution-jetty-hsqldb-10.7.zip is the Xwiki zip file

tmortagne · March 21, 2019, 2:25pm

Then that’s your issue. I made https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/AdminGuide/Installation/#HXIPpackage more explicit.

anandhaibs · March 22, 2019, 3:50am

ok…then how can i install extensions manually?.. i mean there is no internet connection… so i download all needed extensions from a machine and copied it to my server…

tmortagne · March 22, 2019, 10:21am

You just download the right version of the Flavor XIP package. At the bottom of the download pages is indicated where older versions can be found, so in your case it’s https://nexus.xwiki.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org/xwiki/platform/xwiki-platform-distribution-flavor-xip/10.7/xwiki-platform-distribution-flavor-xip-10.7.xip.

anandhaibs · March 22, 2019, 2:51pm

yes… i done it…thnx…

Manual install is explain on each extension (WEB-INF/lib for the JAR extensions and import for the XAR extensions). The hard part is often not installing the extension itself but finding all the dependencies you need.

anandhaibs · March 25, 2019, 6:14am

so…firstly i need to import XAR extension file into xwiki and after that copy all jar dependencies files into WEB-INF/lib…isn’t ?

tmortagne · March 25, 2019, 10:22am

You need to gather all the XAR and JAR files which are not already installed extension (for example extensions parts of the WAR or part of the flavor) and then yes put the JARs in WEB-INF/lib as documented and import the XAR files. It’s generally better to install JAR files first since they require a restart (plus it’s generally safer to install dependencies before the extension since the extension cannot work without them).

anandhaibs · March 25, 2019, 3:03pm

ok…thnx

In Solr Search Application it needs the following dependencies

org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-ui 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-api 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-query 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-wiki-script 11.2
org.webjars:requirejs 2.2.0
org.webjars:jquery 2.2.2

here the 2nd and 3rd dependencies also have other dependencies

ie…org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-api 11.2 Requires the following

org.apache.solr:solr-solrj 6.4.2
org.apache.solr:solr-core 6.4.2
org.restlet.jse:org.restlet 2.3.12
org.apache.commons:commons-lang3 3.8.1
xalan:xalan 2.7.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-tika-parsers 11.2
org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-component-api 11.2
org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-environment-api 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-model 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-bridge 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-query-manager 11.2

and org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-query 11.2 Requires

org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-query-manager 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-model 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-search-solr-api 11.2
org.xwiki.platform:xwiki-platform-oldcore 11.2

so is it necessary to download all these sub dependencies?
