Hello Bernd, The changes are documented. Moin documents slightly differently than other projects-- all the changes and upgrade hints are in the \docs\CHANGES file. In upgrading, you have to work from your current version up to the current, following all the hints along the way.
However, since it sounds like you may be running a configuration very close to what I run, you may want to follow/subscribe to my page, as I always try to stay up-to-date with the current releases and document the critical changes in an easy-to-follow step by step instructions: http://moinmo.in/RickVanderveer And, to reiterate what Thomas said in his email-- while these changes often seem arbitrary to us users/admin's, they are ultimately for the better. Getting an existing installation upgraded can sometimes be tricky, but it's for the better in the end... -Rick On Tue, Mar 17, 2009 at 9:11 AM, Bernd Bartmann <bernd.bartm...@gmail.com> wrote: > I just solved the issue.
