There is two very different things here: the WAR containing the core extensions and the XAR containing the UI extensions. When we upgrade myxwiki.org we upgrade the WAR and let each wiki admin take care of the UI (since we don't really know what they changed in their wiki and what need to be merged). The message you see in the administration is old and was written like this before EM even exist which is why it does not talk about it. The standard search only search in http://extensions.xwiki.org and XE UI is not registered there and even if it was this search would return you only the last version which is not what you want. Advanced search is not fuzzy search like the standard one, you need to provide the exact id and version of the extension you want which allow it to find the extension on repositories for which the search is not supported like maven repositories. In your case that would be org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-ui-all (i.e. groupid:artifactid) for the id and 4.4-rc-1 for the version. > > > Thanks for your clarification (it's hard to be a newbie) > > > Le 11/02/2013 09:05, Thomas Mortagne a écrit : > >> On Sun, Feb 10, 2013 at 11:33 PM, xrichard <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>> Hello, >>> >>> Here >>> >>> http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade#HUpgradingwikidocuments >>> it is stated "Starting with XWiki 4.2 you are able to use the Extension >>> Manager to perform XAR upgrades that support automatic merges and >>> conflict >>> resolution." >>> >>> Is it true for all XWiki versions? because I'm not able to find any >>> "upgrade >>> extension" in Extension Manager on myxwiki.org. >>> >>> Thansk for your help, >> >> There is not upgrade button yet but you can install any version you >> want using "advanced search" and it's going to do an upgrade if you >> already have a previous version installed. > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
