====== Upgrading DokuWiki ======

[Thanks to Chris Mayfield and others for these notes.]

Here's how to upgrade the wiki software manually.  See [[http://www.dokuwiki.org/install:upgrade|upgrade instructions]] for more details.

**The following commands should be run on bikmort.com in the /home/jtkorb/bikmort.com directory.**

Download and unpack the latest version of DokuWiki (step 2).

  $ wget http://www.splitbrain.org/_media/projects/dokuwiki/dokuwiki-2009-12-25.tgz
  $ gunzip dokuwiki-2009-12-25.tgz
  $ tar xvf dokuwiki-2009-12-25.tar

It would be nice to disable the Dreamhost web server before making a snapshot backup of the wiki (step 1):

  $ cp -pr dokuwiki dokuwiki-jic

Copy the new version into the old, double check permissions (steps 3 and 5):

  $ cp -rf dokuwiki-2009-12-25/* dokuwiki
  $ ls -lR dokuwiki | less

Remove old files and clear the data cache (step 4):

  $ egrep -v "^($|#)" removeold.txt | (cd dokuwiki; xargs -n 1 rm -rf)
  $ rm -rf dokuwiki/data/cache/*

Turn the web server back on if it was turned off earlier.
