Thread:Project:Support desk/need a retired version of mediawiki/reply

Hi!

Have a look at DB - these tables have last been used in MediaWiki 1.4. But they also never were deleted. The mere presence of these tables only means that the wiki had initially been created with a MediaWiki version, which used these tables. It does not mean that this also was the last MediaWiki version, which was used with this database. E.g. if you set up an installation with MediaWiki 1.4 and then upgraded it to MediaWiki 1.23, then this will be the last version you used the database with - but the old tables will still be there.

Basically I would just download the sourcecode from releases.wikimedia.org and follow the upgrade guide.

Please note that, if you had files uploaded in your wiki, you will also need these files. Without them, file links will not be working.
