[xwiki-users] Upgrading from (ancient) XWiki Enterprise 1.9.4 to ... what?
Hi. Is there any hope to upgrade the ancient version (XWiki Enterprise) 1.9.4 to a newer, say 2.7.x or even to 3.0.x ? I found the archived release notes, but what steps are required? I mean that should I upgrade from 1.94 -> 2.0 Milestone 1 2.0 Milestone 1 -> 2.0 Milestone 2 . . 2.0.4 -> 2.0.5 . . 2.7.1 -> 2.7.2 or could I just upgrade to 1.9.4 -> 2.7.x ? Any help would be highly appreciated! With Kind Regards, Ari Takku

You should upgrade directly to the most recent version, but be careful to read the release notes for all major versions, paying attention to the upgrade notes. One possible problem is with 3.0 and the change to Velocity 1.7, be sure to read the dedicated section in the release notes: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise...
Any help would be highly appreciated!

Thank for your help. Upgrade has been successfully completed! =) However, the one reason for the upgrade was the search which didn't work with scandinavian letters (say, öä). With high hopes I tested this, and got the same error.. What I do is simply enter word "pöö" to search-textfield and do the search. Result is that the site title and the search page header are: "pöö". The search result page has following meta-info: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta name="page" content="Search"/> <meta name="version" content="1.1"/> <meta name="gwt:property" content="locale=fi" /> <meta name="description" content="Search: pöö" /> Server locale is en_US.UTF-8 XWiki is located at tomcat 5.5.23, the JAVA parameters are -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Djava.awt.headless=true Can someone please help me, or point me into the right direction.. :-/ BR, ari
The wonderful article at http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Encoding saved the day. :) t: ari On 10.06.2011 12:05, Ari wrote:

So, was it the Tomcat URIEncoding setting?

I put that to the Connectors, and my quess is that it solved it because at all times the URI seemed ok, but now it also parsed as ok. I also upgraded the java5 to java6, but I'd say that the URIEncodind was THE thing. Thanks for the help! BR, ari
