Video tutorials for XWiki on Windows

For anyone interested, here are links to a a set of video tutorials I created for admins that need to run XWiki on a Windows machine and how to integrate XWiki in an Active Directory (AD) environment:

  1. Installing PostgreSQL on Windows using SSPI - YouTube – Install the database server

  2. Installing XWiki on Windows - YouTube – Install JRE, Tomcat, and XWiki WAR package

  3. Installing a Windows Domain Certificate in Apache Tomcat - YouTube – Obtain and install an AD domain certificate from a Windows CA (certification authority) for Tomcat

  4. Configuring XWiki on Windows to use Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) - YouTube – Configure Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) for XWiki to leverage single sign-on using AD domain users and groups

Hopefully these videos are useful/helpful.

[Aside: If you are a Windows admin, please go vote for this issue in JIRA - https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/LDAP-56 - it would be nice if we didn’t have to “hard-code” the LDAP auth account password in the xwki.cfg file. Thanks!]
