Subject: Re: [Mediawiki-l] Upgrade to 1.15.2 question
Hello,
Thanks to everyone for all of your assistance, but I hope this is my
last question:
Does anyone know what could be causing the following errors when I run
./update.php:
./update.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
./update.php: line 2: require_once: command not found
./update.php: line 3: /appl: is a directory
./update.php: line 4: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 5: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 6: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 7: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 8: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 9: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 10: addwiki.php: command not found
./update.php: line 11: archives/: is a directory
./update.php: line 13: /appl: is a directory
./update.php: line 14: =: command not found
./update.php: line 15: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./update.php: line 15: `$options = array( 'quick', 'nopurge' );'
Thanks,
Graham

I trust that this question is in keeping with this forum.

Install process?
You may be taking a wrong approach.
You update by replacing the old files with the new ones, then running
the script at maintenance/update.php
Only the database of that wiki is affected.
So to update you should just surround it with a "foreach wiki..."
Good prectises advise making a db backup before updating.
If the wikis are sharing the files, it may be a bit harder, since you
would need to break the links for updating individually (or update all
dbs one after other at the same time).
