To upgrade an earlier TWiki version like
01 Sep 1999 to version 01 May 2000 you should do the following things:
- Back up your system.
- Update the templates in the
/templatesdirectory (and its subdirs):- Take the templates of the latest distribution as the base and merge your changes back into it.
- Update the Perl scripts in the
/bindirectory:- Take the scripts of the latest distribution as the base and merge your changes back into it. Do so also for
wikicfg.pmbecause it has important changes as well.
- Take the scripts of the latest distribution as the base and merge your changes back into it. Do so also for
- Update topics:
- Copy the new User. TWikiPreferences topic (and
*,vfile) into your TWiki.Main web. Customize the topic to your needs. - Copy the new User. WebPreferences, WebStatistics topics (and
*,vfiles) into all your webs. Customize all WebPreferences topics to your needs (e.g. web color). - Copy WebSearch into all your webs, or modify the existing ones. Reason: Some switches for search changed.
- Copy the TWiki documentation into your Main web: Topics TWikiDocumentation, TWikiUsernameVsLoginUsername, TWikiVariables, WebNotification, TWikiCategoryTable, TWikiImplementationNotes, TWikiInstallationGuide, TWikiUpgradeTo01May2000, TextFormattingRules, TWikiHistory .

- Copy the User. TWikiWebsTable topic (and
*,vfile) into your Main web and customize it. Reason: The new release does not use the*.incinclude files anymore. - Optionally: Search for
%INCLUDE%'sin all your webs and change them to the new%INCLUDE{"file.ext"}%syntax. Note: Your old%INCLUDE:"file.ext"%syntax still works (the legacy rule is defined inwikicfg.pm.)
