In 7.4.1 (standalone installation) I'm trying to create a new skin using A. and C. in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Skins. I've a couple of different variations but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
The steps I followed are: 1. Login as Admin - URL is http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ 2. Edit URL and go to http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/MySkinPage/ 3. I see that the page does not exist and follow the 'edit this page' to create it. 4. Press the Create button and then Save & View. 5. Open the Objects editor and select the XWiki.XWikiSkins class - press Add 6. In the object properties, set the Name to 'My New Skin' 7. Set the base skin to 'flamingo' - Press Save & View. 8. Select the Test this skin link and everything looks fine. 9. Go to Administer Wiki -> Presentation. 10. Set both the Stylesheet and Stylesheets fields to Main.MySkinPage 11. Set the Skin field to 'My New Skin' and press Save. 12. This results in a Java error ... Caused by: java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in path at index 9: /skins/My New Skin/admin.vm ... I thought maybe the error was that spaces were not allowed. So I created a new instance and followed the same steps but in steps 6 and 11 used 'MyNewSkin'. Then the browser showed the following: Error You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action. The URL was http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin§ion=Presentation&space=XWiki I also thought that maybe in step 11 I need to use Main.MySkinPage instead. This resulted in the same error, i.e. Error You are not allowed to view this page or perform this action. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Not-able-to-create-new-skin-tp7598159.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
