Hi,
First of all, thank you for a great product.
I just finish the upgrade and had some negative experience.. Here's
how it
went..
- First, I tried to export my wiki to a xar.. At first it produced an
invalid xar/zip archive.. then I figured that xwiki refuse to
produce a
valid archive whenever the 'include history' is not checked.
- I checked the xar and found out there are couple of 0 sized file
which
should have contents.. good thing is that I noticed them..
- exported the database
You don't have to export the database to upgrade XWiki.
That said, it would be nice if you could raise some jira issue about
the XAR export not working correctly.
- Then I upgraded the binaries.. and merged the
configurations.. all
went
well.
- Then, I followed the recommendation regarding importing the new
1.3.1
default wiki.
- WHen I import the default wiki, I received an error message saying
that
there 4 documents that I can't import..
hmmm I clearly remember this pb but I thought we had fixed this.
Another jira issue I think.
- I tried to delete the existing page but received
errors during
deletion.
- The error say something about the attachment, so I delete the
attachments
first.. after I deleted the attachments, I was able to delete the
remaining
pages
- after deletion, I was able the import the the rest of the documents.
Horray.. upgrade finished!
- Then I noticed when I tried to login using invalid LDAP
credential, I
still get an "Internal Error" which is one of the reason I bother to
upgrade
is still here..
Another JIRA.
- I also noticed that 1.3.1 broke the footnote macro
partially..
Another JIRA.
Other than these, everything seems to work fine!
ouch that's a lot that went wrong... :(
If you could report them in JIRA (one for each problem) that would be
great.
Thanks
