Tested upgrade from 1.4.12 > 1.9.0rc2 * MediaWiki: 1.9.0rc2 * PHP: 5.2.0-0.dotdeb.3 (apache2handler) * MySQL: 4.1.11-Debian_4sarge7-log
Followed these steps: * Wiped everything but /extensions /images LocalSettings.php and AdminSetttings.php * Copied over 1.9.0rc2 files * Ran maintenance/upgrade1_5.php * Ran maintenance/update.php * Updated LocalSettings.php with new settings. * Ran maintenance/refreshLinks.php
Upgrade scripts completed without any errors. Exceptional! Upgrade1_5.php was not able to run successfully on this system before.
Issues: * One of the project pages is now empty/non-existent and links to it are red. ** This page on the current public 1.4.12 server is http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Developer_Community:Terms_of_u... here ** Strangely, the talk page is still present.
* Interwiki links are not resolving (Show up in red as Wikipedia:linkname). 'WikiPedia' is correctly listed in the mw_interwiki table.
* Page with // in title not linking correctly. ** Page working in 1.4.12 http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/The_steam://_Protocol here : ** Links to this page go to "The steam:/ Protocol"
* "My Watchlist" page is empty of links, even though pages are still marked as watched and show up in recent changes as bolded.
That's it so far. I haven't merged/applied our custom code and skin yet. That's next.
