http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading
Thanks Benjamin for the link. Based on what I understood from this
manual page, it is assumed the upgrade procedure happens on the server
that the existing Mediawiki+database reside. Is this implying there is
no way to set up a new version of Mediawiki on a new server machine and,
somehow, convert the existing, or backed-up, database (including
imagefiles) to fits into the new environment off-line and inject it into
the new machine/environment?
In other words, in our case, we need to install V1.6 and all database
(or duplicate the current environment) into the new server first, then
from there, we can upgrade Mediawiki based on the procedure written in
the manual page. Am I right, or misunderstanding something?
Thanks,
Toshi
