Thread:Project:Support desk/Upgrading MediaWiki

To upgrade MediaWiki, is this what I need to do?


 * 1) Backup the files and the database
 * 2) Move the MediaWiki files of the old version
 * 3) Upload the files for the new version
 * 4) Copy LocalSettings and the extension files from the old MediaWiki files that were moved to the new MediaWiki files
 * 5) Run update.php to make the changes to the database
 * 6) Delete the old files

Will this work for upgrading from MediaWiki version 1.17 to 1.19.2?
