Which MidCOM version?

midcom.admin.content was used in MidCOM's from 0.1 to 2.4, but then
replaced with the combination of midcom.admin.folder (on-site folder
management), midgard.admin.asgard (full admin UI) and components
providing their own admin UIs.

Well that is interesting ! I'm using MidCOM 2.8, but I apparently have some remnants of an older
version left behind, based on what you are saying.

The full story is that I started with a 1.7.6 Midgard system, running MidCOM 2.4. I copied the database to a new server running Midgard 1.8.6 (MidCOM 2.6 ) and updated it in datagard. I then moved on to trying to set up replication. After being told that I needed MidCOM 2.8 for this, I first attempted to install it from the svn repository, based on one posting that I had found. I was then told that it
could be downloaded via pear using the beta version, which I tried.

It does not appear than any of my attempts have been successful. So my questions are:

1. Is going to http://mysite.com/midgard/midcom-admin/ the correct way to determine if the install is good ?

midcom-admin doesn't exist any more AFAIK, I would suggest a two-level approach: First check mysite/spider-admin, this will tell you if Midgard is running ok, next try mysite/__mfa/asgard/, which should give you access to the new management interface. mysite/midcom-exec-midcom/config-test.php can also be informative, it tests some settings needed by MidCOM


2. How can I go about cleaning up the mess that I now have on my hands ? Is there a way to uninstall MidCOM and
   then do a clean install ?

With pear packages you have pear uninstall, but other stuff has to be cleaned manually I guess (but I don't think it would interfere with your install to keep the files around. I might be wrong, though...)


3. Maybe the most important question of all: Will MidCOM replicate all Midgard elements (pages, styles, snippets ) or
just MidCOM components ?

I tested it just briefly (I'll have to implement it for a site next month, and I'm already having nightmares about that), but as far as I can tell, everything is replicated.


Bye, and good luck!

Andreas


Thanks in advance !

Martin
