Yes, Thomas is right. I was talking about bundling all Java connectors in the WAR build.

I think 90% of what you wrote is already there.

Re: [xwiki-users] Fwd: Upgrading a XWIKI installation 6.1 to 6.21 usings WARs
Hi, I think users want to see examples of migrations from version X to Y instead of the current documentation. For example my previous mini tutorial could be used here : http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade#HUpgradingthewebapp rather than what is currently written. Also we could bundle the Java connectors for all the supported DBs into XWiki by default, but that's a different issue :) Thanks, Manuel On Mon, Oct 13, 2014 at 9:49 AM, vinc...@massol.net wrote: > Hi Manuel/Maik, > > On 13 Oct 2014 at 08:28:00, Manuel Smeria (man...@xwiki.com(mailto: > man...@xwiki.com)) wrote: > > > Hello Maik, > > > > In order to upgrade your XWiki installataion from 6.1 to 6.2.1 you need > to > > follow these steps: > > * Download the 6.2.1 WAR file ( > > http://download.forge.ow2.org/xwiki/xwiki-enterprise-web-6.2.1.war) and > > extract it into a folder called "xwiki" > > * Go to your XWiki 6.1 installation folder and replace your > "webapps\xwiki" > > folder with the one from the previous step > > * Start your server > > > > This tutorial assumes you're using HyperSQL as the DB by default.

Re: [xwiki-users] Fwd: Upgrading a XWIKI installation 6.1 to 6.21 usings WARs
Hello Maik, In order to upgrade your XWiki installataion from 6.1 to 6.2.1 you need to follow these steps: * Download the 6.2.1 WAR file ( http://download.forge.ow2.org/xwiki/xwiki-enterprise-web-6.2.1.war) and extract it into a folder called "xwiki" * Go to your XWiki 6.1 installation folder and replace your "webapps\xwiki" folder with the one from the previous step * Start your server This tutorial assumes you're using HyperSQL as the DB by default. If you use another DB you need to copy a Java connector to your "xwiki\WEB-INF\lib" folder and also configure your "xwiki\WEB-INF\hibernate.cfg.xml" to connect to your specific DB.
