[Mediawiki-l] Best way to migrate from 1.6 to 1.15

[Toshi Esumi]

Hi,

We finally got a new Linux based server (running on VMware) to migrate
our current v1.6 wiki for our company knowledge-base to. It's been a
quite long story (bankruptcy&acqusition-survival-sort-of-stuff) to get
to the current status, which nothing to do with my question.

Anyhow, the existing stand-alone machine is another kind of Linux
(Centos). I'm guessing our database is relatively simple, mainly text
+image files. Since we got a new server, I think we have some options to
do the migration safely and effectively. We already got V1.15.2
installed and running on the new server. Does anybody have suggestions
for the migration procedure? Or can anybody point me to a wiki page(s)
where I can find the info I'm looking for?

Just like most of you, we don't have a dedicated IT person who I might
able to ask to do some research.

Lots of thanks in advance.


Toshi
