Re: [Moin-user] Transfer MoinMoinDesktop 1.5.6 to 1.8.0

Hi Jan, Jan Leendertse wrote: Dear Eric, Thank you for you answer. I had not that much leisure time to follow your tips directly. Sorry for that. I tried to follow the instructions, which is not that easy. I installed 1.8.1, ran the install script, ran the upgrade scripts, removed the *.pyc and *.pyo files. I am still at the same position. The contents are all there, the user data seems to be present, but the internal links are displayed ["this way"]. It was a bit tedious to follow all files and descriptions. And I have still not the faintest idea of the main principles of how it works. If I understand you correctly, if you look at the text for the pages that were supposed to convert, the "raw-text" action on the page shows the links re-written as "[[SomeLinkHere|alternate text]]", whereas the actual display in HTML shows up wrong? That's a little weird.  Did you do the maintenance step to clean your cache?  That's the only thing that I can think of.  Either that or clear your browser cache. I'm no MoinMoin expert - but I am in the process of rolling out a 1.8.1 upgrade for my organization, so I'm looking at these questions now.  So I can vouch for the fact that it *does* work, but of course you have to make sure you follow all the steps.  I have noticed that the default upgrade only updates the *latest* version of each page, however, it is easy enough to change the migration script so that it updates all versions of each page.  I chatted with one of the developers in the IRC channel, but haven't had the opportunity to file a bug/feature improvement item in the MoinMoin wiki. -Eric. I think I have to find another solution, because I need a tools which keeps notes more than some months. Is there any way exporting the contents? Best regards, 2009/1/15 Eric Johnson <e...@tibco.com> Hi Jan, You have to follow the upgrade process. Start here: http://moinmo.in/HelpOnUpdating The upgrade scripts will migrate your content to the new syntax. The new syntax is not a choice of configuration. -Eric. jan78...@googlemail.com wrote: > Hello, > > I ran MoinMoinDesktop 1.5.6, and it worked fine. > > Due to a laptop change including a OS change from XP to Vista, I had to move.
