> Hi Victor
>
> you should start by looking at this:
> http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation
>
> Now I have the same problem as you have. Here are the issues I see:
>
> - the 0.9 database schema is not compatible with latest 1.1.1 (though
> connecting 1.1rc2 to the 0.9 database works provided that you applied the
> fix you refered too).
>
> - You can export you 0.9 wiki pages by copying the script available at
> http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Test/ImportExport . It allows you to
> create a .xar (zip formatted) package containing all your wiki
>
> - Alternatively you can connect a 1.1 wiki to the 0.9 database (provided
> you applied your fix), import the appropriate pages if necessary and
> export using the 1.1 export feature. It will create the xar package
> containing ALL your wiki pages and I don't see how to select only a few
> pages. As far as I can see this method is equivalent to the one above and
> the outcome is the same.
>
> - I tried a fresh installation: 1) create the database in MySQL (leave it
> empty) by following to the letter the excellent tutorial from the URL
> above; 2) connect you 1.1.1 wiki to this new database and it will create
> all the tables for you; 3) proceed with the tutorial and import all the
> pages you need (I recommand at least Panels.xar); 3) Now we have a
> problem: importing .xar packages coming from a 0.9 wiki does not work.
> This is where I am stuck.
>
> If you know the end of the story, I'd like to hear it ;-)
>
> I hope that could help to some extent...

>> Hi all,
>>
>> I've been using XWiki during this year and now I have a titanic task :
>> upgrade it to XWiki 1.1
>>
>> Unfortunately I haven't found any document on how to upgrade, neither in
>> the site nor in the list archives, so I decided to transfer the MySQL
>> database to a new location (unsing mysqldump) and install XWiki 1.1 from
>> scratch
>> (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation#HInstallingtheXWikiWARmanually)
>>
>> using MySQL 5.0 and Tomcat 6
>>
>> After obtaining a " *Field 'XWD_ARCHIVE' doesn't have a default value"
>> error (and solved it thanks to
>> http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1702) a more obscure error
>> appears regarding some attributes and so.
>>
>> I decided not to follow a trial an error path, and I'm  here asking for
>> some guide or guidelines to do this upgrade, or in case such a thing
>> doesn't exists beg for  some help from you all, and as a thanks gift
>> offer to publish a mini howto for upgrading XWiki from v0.9.x to 1.1.
>>
>> Thanks in advance for your help.
