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?
Hello Toshi,
This is a major upgrade. Make sure to back up your files and database
before starting. You can try upgrading directly from 1.6 to 1.15, but
this has a good chance of failing. Consider upgrading in several steps
(eg, 1.6 to 1.8 to 1.10, etc). Perhaps someone more knowledgeable
about MediaWiki versions can suggest the minimum safe version steps.
