[xwiki-users] XWiki migration and extensions
Hi, I have XWiki running in a test environment, and want to move to another server for production. Currently I have deployed it by extracting the war file in a jetty server and a mysql database, and there are some extensions installed using the extension manager. To migrate to another server, is it sufficient to migrate the database and use a new war file in the new server, do I need to use the same xwiki folder inside webapps? In other words, does installing extensions add files to the file system? Thanks ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

[xwiki-users] XWiki migration
Hi, I'm currently trying to upgrade my xwiki installations from 5.4.4 to 8.0 (or even later, byt currentrly struggling with 8.0). Current (5.4.4) installation have a few modifications made in base XWiki documents. We have provided the installation with our library to authenticate users from external application along with few service components etc. And now I'm loooking for best way to migrate to later(lates) version. With it I have a few issues. - Distribution Wizard is not working properly when run on server (tomcat) with our extensions and modifications provided. It displays information about component not being compatibile. There is allways a way to run a clean xwiki and migrate with Distribution Wizard but for now I would like to avoid it. - Another issue using Distribution Wizard is that not all of installation environments have access to extension repositories. - Another thing is that one of installations have huge ammount of attachments (over 100 GB) so exporting old installation and importing over new installation is not possible. Does anyone have any tips regarding XWiki migration? I will be greateful for any help, even for som words of encouragement ;) Karol -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/XWiki-migration-tp7601313.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
