Re: [xwiki-users] Watchlist email links use localhost instead of server hostname [SOLVED]
Clemens Klein-Robbenhaar wrote > If I remember correctly, XWiki uses the first incoming request to store > the information by which hostname it is called It seems this was the issue. After a xwiki server restart the mails use the correct URL. I have probably logged in to xwiki on localhost after the last restart.

Re: [xwiki-users] Watchlist email links use localhost instead of server hostname
And what if there was no request since the start but the watch list must fire? To me relying on a first request is really dangerous, also there are cases where ProxyPreserveHost is not accessible (I had the case of having just mod_rewrite and no mod_proxy). A hard solution is to install a URL factory that is absolute (i've published one here, it has too many things but has worked for me), another is to change de tomcat config if available.

Re: [xwiki-users] Watchlist email links use localhost instead of server hostname
If I remember correctly, XWiki uses the first incoming request to store the information by which hostname it is called, and uses this information in the background thread that sends the watchlist mails. a) If you are sure that everyone accesses your wiki through the actual host name, you should be able to fix the problem by restarting the wiki b) If that does not help: check if you have a proxy in front of XWiki; maybe that proxy does not pass through the "host" header from the browser (e.g apache httpd needs a "ProxyPreserveHost On" in its configuration to do so.) c) Finally if you want to enfore the usage of a host name, and you can add something like wget --retry-connrefused --tries=100 --header 'Host: jabba.jabba.hey' http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ to your start script to make sure XWiki uses a certain domain for the watchlist mails HTH, Clemens On 09/22/2016 09:41 AM, Hofstätter Mario wrote: > The watchlist mail notifications we are receiving from our xwiki server have > hyperlinks to the corresponding pages, but the link starts with > "http://localhost/; as opposed to the actual server hostname. > How may we fix this? > > Thank you > Mario ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
[xwiki-users] Watchlist email links use localhost instead of server hostname
The watchlist mail notifications we are receiving from our xwiki server have hyperlinks to the corresponding pages, but the link starts with "http://localhost/; as opposed to the actual server hostname. How may we fix this? Thank you Mario ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
