Installation and upgrade notes for Wikka 1.1.6.4
Users running previous versions of Wikka are strongly recommended to upgrade or install a fresh package. Upgrading via the web-based wizard takes only a few minutes.
1. Layout changes from the previous release
- The header and footer files can now be found in the /templates folder. If you made any modifications to the original files (in the /actions folder) or created custom files with a different name, you will need to apply these changes to the new files after upgrading. Please note that header_action and footer_action in the config file have been obsoleted by version 1.1.6.4 so it is mandatory to call header and footer files header.php and footer.php respectively.
- If your wiki uses a custom stylesheet, make sure you check out the differences between 1.1.6.3 and 1.1.6.4 so that your stylesheet includes all the new selectors and classes required by 1.1.6.4. (unified diff)
2. Note for 1.1.6.4-RC1 users
- To upgrade from 1.1.6.4-RC1 to 1.1.6.4 you just need to overwrite the files in your Wikka folder. You don't need to run the upgrade wizard.
3. Note for 1.1.6.4 beta users
- There is one database change that was made on 02 Dec 07 in the 1.1.6.4 branch. If you are running with a beta version of 1.1.6.4 prior to this date, and upgrade to the latest 1.1.6.4 release, you will see an error similar to this (your sessionid, userid, and dbname will be different) when you bring up your new installation:
Query failed: SELECT * FROM wikka_sessions WHERE sessionid='c4199a32c0c076a151b0e0cdc44a6045' AND userid='someuser' (Table 'mydb.wikka_sessions' doesn't exist)
To resolve, you will need to manually create the wikka_sessions table. Start up your mysql client (or use an admin utility such as phpMyAdmin) to execute the following SQL:
create table wikka_sessions (sessionid char(32) not null, userid varchar(75) not null, primary key (sessionid, userid), session_start datetime not null);
Thanks to Ed Jason on the wikka-community list for pointing this out
