Mises Wiki generally upgrades its MediaWiki installation whenever a new version comes out.
Procedure
- Make a backup of the database and file system by following instructions at MisesWiki:Backups.
- Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download and get the URL for the newest download.
- wget that URL.
tar xvzf mediawiki-1.xx.x.tar.gz -C /home/web/public_html/wiki- The following must be recursively copied into the new directory (
/home/web/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.xx.x) from the old directory:
- images folder
- extensions folder
- LocalSettings.php
- The custom Mises Wiki skin (Vector.php) and any dependencies (e.g. the Mises Wiki shield image); for the dependencies, you may as well just use
cp -r /home/web/public_html/wiki/mediawiki/skins/misesskin /home/web/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.xx.x/skins - favicon.png
- In addition, chgrp and/or chown should be run recursively on the images folder to make those directories writeable by users in the "web" group. I guess that would be
chgrp -R web /home/web/public_html/wiki/mediawiki/images/* and chown -R web /home/web/public_html/wiki/mediawiki/images/* - Also upgrade the extensions:
cd /home/web/public_html/wiki/mediawiki/extensionsgit clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/<EXT>.git
