Summary: Non-ascii characters in article titles messed up on
upgrade from 1.11 to 1.15.1
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.15.1
Platform: All
URL: http://en.textopia.org
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Normal
Component: Database
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
I just upgraded my wiki project from 1.11 to 1.15.1. I did it by re-running the
install script, since the command-line php client on my server is 4.3, not 5.
Once the upgrade was done, all non-ascii characters in article titles where
messed up. I did not conciously change the encoding for the database (didn't
make a choice, since the install page says it is ignored on updates).
Furthermore, I notice that when I point my browser to the new mediawiki config
folder, without having run the script first, the link that says "Please set up
the wiki first" points to config/index.wiki, not to index.php. It also doesn't
give a good error message if you by any chance have the permissions of the
config folder set to 700 (which I have, because I am linking in a wiki family
setup of this kind:
