Hello All,
I have a host that is running the following:
Media Wiki version 1.12.3
PHP Version 5.2.6
MYSQL 5.0.51
I *think* the only extensions that are installed are (per LocalSettings.php):
require_once('extensions/Cite/Cite.php');
-------- 2008-01-31
require_once('extensions/ArticleComments.php');
-------- 0.4
require_once( "extensions/DynamicArticleList.php" );
-------- no version, Part of MediaWiki??
require_once("extensions/DynamicPageList/DynamicPageList2.php");
-------- 1.5.1
require_once( "extensions/collist.php" );
-------- 1.1
I need to upgrade it to version 1.18.
I have never, ever upgraded MediaWiki, so I read the instructions located here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading
It is a virtual machine, so before I did anything, I snapped the VM.
Here is the following sequence of commands I performed:
cd /var/www/websites
cp -r /var/www/websites/mediawiki/ /var/www/websites/mediawiki-bak-010512/
wget
http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.18/mediawiki-1.18.0.tar.gz
tar xvfz mediawiki-1.18.0.tar.gz
cp -r mediawiki-1.18.0/* /var/www/websites/mediawiki/
cd /var/www/websites/mediawiki/maintenance
php update.php
I then received two error messages complaining about ArticleComments.php and also
DynamicPageList2.php, so I commented them out in the LocalSettings.php file.
I reran the update.php file and the script then ran through completely without any
stoppages or errors that I could see.
I now hit the URL of the WIKI and it says "MediaWiki has an issue." And the wiki
doesn't load.
Can someone please help me in determining what to do to correct the issues?
