The upgrade process does not work as smooth as described in UPGRADE text. I used the following upgrade procedure and had reproducible errors : 1. Create database dump: mysqldump --default-character-set=latin1 gaia_wikintern>gaia_wikintern_latin1.sql -p 2. Make copy of that database: mysql gaia_wikintern15<gaia_wikintern_latin1.sql -p 3. On the commandline run maintenance/upgrade1_5.php. It shows the following error msg: .... Checking for duplicate accounts... Found 0 accounts with duplicate records on gaia_wikintern15. It is now safe to apply the unique index on user_name. 2005-11-13 10:52:12: Migrating user table to user_temp...

But finally I have a wiki with empty pages. Environment data: - mysqld Ver 4.0.15 for suse-linux on i686 - PHP 4.3.3 linux Note: http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3518 describes more or less the same problems with an upgrade 1.4.9 >> 1.5rc4. For debugging: I have some time today for IRC.
Run update.php for general upgrades. upgrade1_5.php is a special-purpose *partial* migrator for 1.4->1.5 only. It will not work with1.3 It may not work with early 1.4.
