22 +Alternatively, you could skip the Distribution Wizard (this can be useful for example if you're offline and wish to install XWiki). However you'd need to perform either of the following operations:

23 -{{info}}Since 9.5{{/info}} a XIP package is provided for the Standard flavor.
24 +* Create new pages by hand
25 +* Import the default Wiki that we are providing as a [[XAR file>>http://forge.ow2.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=170]] by using the [[Import feature>>platform:AdminGuide.ImportExport]]. Since there's no Admin user created at this point, you'll need to [[log in as ##superadmin##>>platform:AdminGuide.Configuration||anchor="HEnablesuperadminaccount"]] to be able to perform this import.

25 -This is actually a zip file containing the required XWiki extensions in the same format than the local extensions repository.
26 -
27 -* download it on [[xwiki:Main.Download]]
28 -* unzip it (rename it to ##.zip## if your zip tool does not recognize it) in the folder ##<permanentdirectory>/extension/repository## (if you have complain about already existing file don't overwrite)
29 -* restart XWiki if it was running
30 -* resume standard installation, this time it will find the flavor locally

34 -Several options:

36 -* Set up a local Extension Repository, either as a Maven Repository or using the [[Extension Repository Application>>extensions:Extension.Repository Application]]. Of course you'll need to [[prefill it with all the extensions you'll wish to install when offline>>Documentation.AdminGuide.FillLocalMavenRepository]], which isn't something easy to do.
37 -* [[Install the Standalone Distribution>>Documentation.AdminGuide.InstallationStandalone]] which contains a default set of wiki pages.
38 -* Use the [[Offline Packager Maven plugin>>https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/maven-plugin-offline-xwiki-repository-packager]].

51 51  If you're upgrading an existing wiki using the manual Import feature, be careful that the XAR import operation will replace the content of the existing pages of your wiki with the content of the XAR (New pages that you have created will not be modified). As a consequence it's critical that you [[perform a backup>>platform:AdminGuide.Backup]] first and read the upgrade nodes bellow carefully.

53 53  On the other hand, if you use the Distribution Wizard, it'll automatically perform a merge and prompt you for action in case there's a conflict it cannot resolve automatically. Thus using the Distribution Wizard is what we recommend.
