[Moin-user] Upgrading from 1.5.3

[Karl Auer]

Hi.

I want to upgrade from 1.5.3 to the latest version, 1.8.0.

I've read the file README.migration but have a few questions still.

For example, under 1.5.3 migration you say:

   First make sure you have run all the old mig scripts ONCE (and only
   once) on your data dirs.

   The old style stuff moved here: MoinMoin/script/old/migration/

Since I can't find any migration scripts in my current 1.5.3
installation, I'm assuming you mean I should run the scripts supplied
with 1.8.0. However, none of the scripts in that directory appear to
relate to 1.5.3 (they all relate to earlier versions); should I really
run them all?

Then in "Post 1.5.3 new style migration" you write:

  b) Invoke the following command:
      moin --config-dir=/path/to/config_dir \
           --wiki-url=wiki.example.org/ migration data 

      Note: If you did not use setup.py, you can call the moin script
            directly. It is located in MoinMoin/script/moin.py

Which config dir should I specify, the old one or the new one?

What is the wiki-url exactly? Is the slash on the end of it necessary?

Are "migration" and "data" literals, or do I substitute particular
values there? If so, what values?

Regards, K.
