Hi Vincent,
As U told me, i've tried the update from scratch (my XWiki 1.0 install )
to 1.2.
Here's what I did on my test server :
* stop Tomcat container
* drop MySQL XWiki database, recreate it empty, and inject the
production dump
* delete the whole content of $webapp
* unjar xwiki-enterprise-web-1.2.war in $webapp
* copy mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar to /WEB-INF/lib/
* edit /WEB-INF/xwiki.cfg : adding the xwiki.upload.tempdir parameter
* edit /WEB-INF/hibernate.cfg.xml : set the good username and password
for MySQL connection, uncomment MySQL parameters
* edit /skins/albatross/global.vm : change "#set($regurl =
$xwiki.getURL("XWiki.Register", "register"))" with #set($regurl =
$xwiki.getURL("XWiki.RegisterNewUser", "view"))
* restart Tomcat container
* access the homepage with the browser : long time to display, because
updating the database --> xwikiLogFirstHttpCall.txt
(http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ddwdqc3b_103g3t26ngr)
see lower for the results and comments :)

As mentioned higher, everything seems to go well during the new
automatic database migration process, it's very "user friendly" :)

Unfortunately, the bug is still here.
I edit the homepage with the fresh 1.2 update : it creates a new revision
Displaying the older revision (the latest edited with the 1.0 install)
everything is OK, accents are displayed well.
But for all the older revisions tagged as "Minor Revisions" on the
History screen, all the special entities are replaced with a "?", as in
the 1.0 install
The bug seems to be fixed for all revisions edited with the 1.2 update,
but the migration process doesn't seem to fix this for "1.0 edited"
revisions : so it's a good thing that all new revisions aren't affected,
but it would be nice to fix the display for all of revisions, no ?

I've just read the last Ricardo's post about Lucene message in
catalina.out, and I have some too, I don't know exactly which action on
the wiki produced them, but here's a trace here :
