Hi Doug,<br>
<br>
What do you mean by help? Give you guidance on what to look out for?
Suggest a particular approach?<br>
<br>
In any case, the hardest part of the migration comes from getting
you to a 1.6 version of your data.<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://moinmo.in/HowTo/Migrate%20from%201.5%20to%201.6">http://moinmo.in/HowTo/Migrate%20from%201.5%20to%201.6</a><br>
<br>
The reason this is particularly hard is that MoinMoin changed
syntax, so every page gets touched in the migration. Do you want to
migrate all the history of all the pages, or just the current latest
copy? I did a patch on my local copy of MoinMoin that migrated the
entire history of pages to the 1.6 syntax, rather than just the
latest version.<br>
<br>
Also with the 1.6 version, MoinMoin changed its treatment of spaces
vs. underscores. You have a one-time opportunity to rename pages
with "_" in their names to use spaces instead. For the server I
manage, we chose not to do this.<br>
<br>
Are you using extensions/plugins/macros in the current setup? If so,
migration will be considerably harder. If you're not, it should be
much easier.<br>
<br>
I ended up scripting the migration from 1.5.X to 1.6, so that I
could run it any number of times. That way, I could see the results,
decide whether I liked them, and if not, figure out what went wrong,
and do it again.<br>
<br>
Upgrades since the 1.6 release have been straightforward, at least
through the 1.8 series, where I've stopped for the moment.<br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've got a MoinMoin wiki I put together years ago that used
MoinMoin version 1.5.1 in an Apache environment. I'd like to do
one of two things in order to use the pages in this wiki again:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) I'd like to run this old MoinMoin wiki using the
standalone server so I can copy the pages out of the wiki into a
newer version of MoinMoin (1.9.3) so I could use the pages
again.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2) I'd like to migrate the pages from my old MoinMoin
version 1.5.1 directory to my newly installed MoinMoin version
1.9.3.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there anyone out there who can help me with either of
these questions?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance!</div>
<div>Doug</div>
