Sürüm notlarını okuyun
Tarball dağıtım dosyası içinde, veya Git tarafından teslim edilen / ihraç edilen dosyalar içinde, adı büyük harflerle yazılmış dosyalardan biri olan  (wiki) içeren bir dosya var. Şimdi paketi açıp ve bu sürümde nelerin değiştiğini öğrenmenin zamanı geldi.

Bekleyen işlerin kaldırılması
Performans nedenleriyle, veritabanındaki bazı işler ertelenir ve iş kuyruğu tarafından yönetilir. Bu ertelenen işler veritabanında saklanır ve gerçekleşmesi gereken eylemler hakkında bilgi veren parametreleri içerir. Bu bekleyen işleri, parametre özelliklerinin yeni sürümde değişmesi durumunda başarısız olmasını önlemeniz için wiki'yi yükseltmeden önce çalıştırmanız kesinlikle önerilmektedir. Tüm bekleyen işleri çalıştırmak ve yükseltmeyi gerçekleştirmeden önce sırayı temizlemek için 'iyi kullanın.

Mevcut dosyaları ve veritabanını yedekle

 * Tam talimatlar: 

Yükseltme komut dosyaları iyi-korunmuş ve sağlam olsa da, işler yine de ters gidebilir. Veritabanı şemasını güncellemeye başlamadan önce, hem veritabanını hem de dosyaları içeren, wiki'nin tam yedeğini alın:


 * wiki'nin içeriği, veritabanından (karakter setinin doğru şekilde belirlendiğinden emin olmak için önce LocalSettings.php dosyasını kontrol edin). SQL dökümanı dökümüne ek olarak bir XML dökümü oluşturmak iyi bir fikir olabilir.
 * MySQL, hem SQL dökümü hem de XML dökümü,  komutuyla birlikte kullanılmaktadır:

mysqldump --user=wikidb_user --password=wikidb_userpassword wikidb > file.sql mysqldump --user=wikidb_user --password=wikidb_userpassword wikidb --xml > file.xml
 * PostgreSQL, veritabanı dökümü için  komutu ile birlikte kullanılmaktadır:

pg_dump --create -Fc wikidb > file.db.dump
 * SQLite, yedek oluşturmak için bir MediaWiki komut dosyası kullanıyorsunuz:

php wikifolder/maintenance/sqlite.php --backup-to file
 * resimler ve diğer medya dosyaları ( dizininin içeriği, özel logo /skins/common/images/wiki.png)
 * yapılandırma dosyaları, ör.  ve   (eğer varsa)
 * MediaWiki'nin tüm kabuk ve eklentilerini içeren program dosyalarını, özellikle bunları değiştirdiyseniz.

Bir tarball paketi kullanma
FTP veya komut satırı kullanarak yeni dosyaları yükleyebilirsiniz. Erişiminiz varsa komut satırını kullanın! Komut satırını kullanmak, binlerce dosyanın her birini FTP ile yüklemekten çok daha hızlı olacaktır.

Açılmış tarball'ınızı sunucunuzdaki yeni ve boş bir klasöre yerleştirmelisiniz. Eğer yeni sürümü doğrudan yeni bir dizin yerine eski sürümünüzün üstünde yüklerseniz, Var olan dosyaları ve veritabanını yedekle bölümünde açıklanan talimatları izlemelisiniz. Aksi takdirde, herhangi bir özelleştirme yaptıysanız, bunları yeniden uygulamak için herhangi bir başvuru yapmadan ayrılmanızı sağlayacak şekilde silebilirsiniz. MediaWiki'nin canlı kopyasının üstünde yeni bir tarball yükleme, MediaWiki'nin eski sürümündeki bazı dosyaları geride bırakabilir ve bu da güncellemenin kodunu etkileyebilir. Bu sebeple yeni dosyaları yeni bir dizinde açmanız ve daha sonra özelleştirmeleri yeni dizine uygulamanız (LocalSettings.php, resimler klasörü, eklentileri ve özel kabuklar gibi diğer özelleştirmeleri geri yüklemeniz önerilir)

FTP veya grafik
Eğer sunucunuzdaki komut satırına erişemiyorsanız, MediaWiki tarball'ını yerel bilgisayarınıza indirin ve yerel bilgisayarda tarball'ı çıkarmak için 7zip'i kullanın.

Dosyaları bilgisayarınıza çıkardıktan sonra, en sevdiğiniz FTP istemci yazılımını kullanarak dizinleri ve dosyaları sunucuya yükleyiniz.

Komut satırı
Mevcut kullanıcı wiki kurulum dizinleri üzerinde tam yazma izinine sahip değilse  komutunu kullanarak çalıştırmanız gerekebilir. Normalde bir tarball paketini açtığınızda, yeni wiki sürümü için yeni bir dizin oluşturulur ve eski kurulum dizininizden eski yapılandırma dosyaları ve resim dizinini kopyalamanız gerekir:

$ cd /path/to/your/new/installation/ $ wget https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki//mediawiki-.tar.gz $ tar -xvzf mediawiki-.tar.gz $ rm mediawiki-.tar.gz

(Open)Solaris kullanıcıları gtar, veya:

$ gzip -dc mediawiki-.tar.gz | tar xf -

Diğer dosyalar
Tarball'ı yükledikten sonra, bazı dosya ve klasörleri eski kurulum dizininden yeni bir dizine kopyalamanız veya taşımanız gerekir:


 * , eski yapılandırma ayarlarınızı içerir.
 * The  (or   in older versions) directory, which contains all the uploaded files to the wiki, unless you have chosen a different upload directory, and change the ownership and permissions.   and   (e.g. if your web user is apache).
 * dizinindeki bazı eklentiler. Güncellenmiş eklentileri her zaman almalısınız, eski uzantıların MediaWiki'nin yeni bir sürümüyle çalışması garanti edilmez.
 * In case you use a custom logo this file also needs to be restored from backup. Before 1.24 usually in . After 1.24 in   or   if that's what you chose to use. Then add to LocalSettings.php e.g.
 * dizinindeki özel kabuklar.
 * Eski kurulum dosyalarında veya eklentilerde yapılan değişiklikler.
 * Herhangi bir .htaccess dosyası (Apache kullanıyorsanız ve onlarda herhangi bir kural tanımladıysanız).

İşiniz bittiğinde, bu yeni klasörü web sunucusundaki yayınlanmış klasör yapın veya eski kurulum dizinini yeniden adlandırın ve yenisini eski adla eşleşecek şekilde yeniden adlandırın.

Git kullanımı
If using, export the files into a clean location, and then copy the old customized files into the new location as described in the previous section.

If you are upgrading to MediaWiki 1.25 or later, you will also need to install some external PHP libraries using Composer or a provided collection maintained for the Wikimedia wiki farm. More details on installing and updating external libraries can be found in the Git download documentation.

Using patch
A small patch file is usually made available for a minor version upgrade. Manually download and extract the patch file from the dumps site or follow the directions with wget below. Patches are incremental, you can not  skip a version.


 * 1) cd to your main MediaWiki directory (the one with LocalSettings.php).
 * 2) Download the patch file and gunzip it.
 * 3) Use   to check what will be changed (e.g.,  )
 * 4) If all is well, run patch again without.
 * 5) Check your Special:Version and you should see the new version number in place.

Files remaining that may cause errors
If you unpacked over the old installation directory, some old files can cause problems with the new version.

If you are not using profiling, but have a  file in the MediaWiki root folder, you may receive errors referring to. Deleting, or renaming, the  file will resolve this error. The  file, also in the MediaWiki root folder, can serve as a template should you enable profiling in the future.

MediaWiki 1.23 deprecates the skin autodiscovery mechanism of core skin files. After upgrading to this version, you should ensure that the old files,  ,   and   directly in the   directory as well as the according subfolders inside the   directory got removed. MediaWiki will log warnings if any of them are still found to help you remember. (You will also need to adjust any custom skins to follow a similar convention.) See for details.

MediaWiki 1.24 changes the paths of core skin files. After upgrading to this version, you should ensure that the old files,  ,   and   directly in the   directory are no longer present. See for details.

Eklentilerin güncellenmesi
Bazı eklentiler MediaWiki'nin yeni sürümüyle çalışmak için güncellendiler. Bu tür uzantıları en son sürümlerine yükseltmeyi unutmayınız. Özel uzantılar için elle güncelleme yapmanız gerekebilir.

Farklı tarballs eklentileri bazı alt grupları içerir ve MediaWiki çekirdeğiniz için doğru olan sürümü seçmenize yardımcı olur.

Extension Distributor works well for most people who want a snapshot of extensions that will work with their supported versions of MediaWiki.

If you want a lot of extensions then downloading from Git is probably best.

Eğer daha fazla eklenti istiyorsanız o zaman Git deposundan indirme muhtemelen sizin için en iyisidir.

LocalSettings.php'nizi uyarlayın
Eski sürümlerdeki  dosyasını kullanırsanız, yeni sürümlerde bunun nasıl   uygulayacağını ayarlamanız gerekebilir:

Skin registration
Since MediaWiki 1.24, bundled skins like Vector, Monobook, Modern and CologneBlue are no longer part of MediaWiki core, and they need to be registered explicitly in  to use them, otherwise MediaWiki will warn that you don't have installed skins.

This is what you need to add to  when upgrading from versions older than 1.24 and want to have available one of those skins:

This code is for MediaWiki 1.25 and newer. For MediaWiki 1.24 you need to use the following code:

Other skins may still not be adapted to the new skin registration system, so refer to the documentation page about each skin to see how to register it properly in case of problems.

Eklenti kaydı
MediaWiki 1.25'den beri, eklentiler yeni eklenti kayıt sistemi kullanıyor.

Daha önceki  şöyle bir şey içeriyordu:

Bu, aşağıdakilere dönüştürülebilir:

Eklentiler yeni eklenti kayıt sistemini kullanacak şekilde uyarlanmaktadır. Uyarlanmamış eklentiler, eski kurulum biçimini kullanmalıdır. Daha fazla bilgi için eklentinin sayfasındaki kurulum talimatlarına bakın.

Diğer değişiklikler
Bazı değişkenler eskimiş olabilir veya kaldırılabilir. Onları 'e yerleştirmek genellikle herhangi bir etkiye sahip olmayacaktır. Yeni değişkenler yeni sürümlerde eklenebilir veya mevcut bazı değişkenlerin türü değiştirmiştir. We usually try to use sane defaults for them, and in case of type change, be backwards compatible. Her durumda, bu değişiklikleri görmek için sürüm notlarına göz atın.

Güncelleme komut dosyasını çalıştırın
You can upgrade the MediaWiki database in two ways: Either from the command line or from the web browser. If you have shell access to your server, upgrading from the command line is recommended, since this reduces the risk of the upgrade process being interrupted by a timeout or connection reset.

The script will also attempt to download any missing dependency which MediaWiki needs.

Command line
Access the command line of your server or an SSH shell or similar. You can access the command line by connecting to your server via SSH. If the local PC you are working on runs Microsoft Windows, you will need a tool like PuTTY to use SSH. From the command line or the Shell, change to the  directory and execute the update script:

$ php update.php On a Linux server if you get an error try performing the same command as root ( sudo php maintenance/update.php ). Note for simple installations on Windows (e.g. with ): First make sure that your web server (such as Apache) and your database (such as MySQL) are running. Then run update.php: right-click it, select Open With, and browse to PHP.exe. The resulting command prompt window will likely autoclose when the schema upgrade completes.

You might see a message that your PHP version is too old and that MediaWiki needs a newer version. After that message the update aborts. Reason for this error is that the command line can use another PHP version than that one which you have when you execute MediaWiki from the web server. When you get this message you should check, if you can execute a newer PHP version on the shell by using a different command: That might e.g. be php5 or php56. If another version is available and - if so - under which name, depends on the setup of your server. If it does not work, ask your hoster; he will surely know.

MediaWiki will inspect the existing schema and update it to work with the new code, adding tables and columns as needed.

What to do in case of "ALTER command denied to user" error (or similar)
In case the scripts abort with a message similar to:

Error: 1142 ALTER command denied to user 'wiki'@'localhost' for table 'mytable' (localhost) ERROR: must be the owner of the mytable relation

This means that you should check that you have defined and  in your  file (in the main directory). These are the user and password needed by this script in order to access to the database.

What to do in case of "unexpected T_STRING" error
Individuals running update.php from the command line may encounter the following error:

 syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' \ in ~/maintenance/commandLine.inc on line 13

This error occurs when update.php is run from php4.

Individuals who have their site hosted by providers who provide both php4 and php5 should take the following steps:


 * 1) from the command line, enter the command 'whereis php5'
 * 2) once you have discerned the location of the php5 path, list the contents of php5/bin directory
 * 3) once you've determined the name of the php executable (either php or php5), type in the entire path to execute update.php

Below is an example:

 $ whereis php5 $ ls -la /usr/local/php5/bin $ /usr/local/php5/bin/php update.php

What to do in case of 'register_argc_argv is set to false' error
You may encounter the error:  Cannot get command line arguments, register_argc_argv is set to false


 * 1) Go to ~/maintenance. Either edit an existing 'php.ini' file, or create one.
 * 2) Add a line as follows:

 register_argc_argv=true


 * 1) Re-run php update.php

Web browser

 * See also 

If your database is already big and in high production usage, then you should not be using the Web updater, e.g. because the update process will time out when the maximum_execution_time is reached. In that case you should use update.php from the command-line interface (not from the web). What exactly is "too big" depends on your server (e.g. on its performance, the load and on how long the maximum execution time of PHP allows the script to run). If your wiki is too big for the web updater and your hosting provider does not allow command-line access, then you need to migrate your wiki to another hosting account, preferably to one that does have shell access.


 * 1) Always backup before performing database maintenance.
 * 2) Navigate your webbrowser to  . For example, if your wiki is at , then navigate to.
 * 3) Select your language and click continue.
 * 4) The existing installation should be detected. Follow the instructions on the screen to upgrade it. If asked for the "upgrade key", open your  file and look for the key assigned to.

It might happen that the web-updater does not seem to work: Instead of seeing the initial language selection screen, you might see an empty wiki page, possibly with some error message. In this case it is most likely that your webserver uses Rewrite Rules (most likely for short URLs), which do not show you the updater at mw-config/, but a wiki page at Mw-config/, with capital "M". In this case, rename the .htaccess file for the time of the update. Then you should be able to access the web-updater.

Test the update
Once the upgrade has been completed, browse to the wiki and check that the following operations work as expected:
 * Viewing pages
 * Editing pages
 * Uploading a file
 * Visit Special:Version and check that the version shown is correct and that the extensions are present.

Frequently asked questions


How hard is it to upgrade?
If the only file you have modified is, and you are upgrading from 1.5 or later, the process is very simple. The amount of human work involved is only a few minutes. The database schema changes will take an amount of time proportional to the size of your database — potentially hours for wikis with millions of pages, but for a more typical size of a few thousand pages, it is usually done in seconds.

Minor upgrades, within the same major version, say from 1.13.0 to 1.13.1, do not require any schema changes at all. You can just update the files. The database needs no update, hence it is not necessary to run the installer script.

Upgrading from 1.4 or earlier is potentially complicated because support for character sets other than UTF-8 was dropped, and the schema for storing bulk text changed. Please read the relevant section in the  file.

Upgrading becomes difficult if you have modified our source code, and you don't want your changes to be overwritten. Tools such as diff, patch, Meld or WinMerge may be useful. There is also potential for trouble if you are using unmaintained extensions. Upgrade your extensions at the same time as you upgrade MediaWiki.

If you have modified the skin or use a custom skin you very likely will have to adjust it to work again with the new version of MediaWiki.
 * Instead of patching your "global" css and js (javascript) files everytime you can simply add the code to your MediaWiki:Common.js and MediaWiki:Common.css pages. As these are part of the database which will be reused when you upgrade, you will not have to patch the MediaWiki core files any more.

How do I upgrade from a really old version? In one step, or in several steps?
It depends: If you are upgrading from MediaWiki 1.4 or older, you should upgrade to MediaWiki 1.5 first. If you are upgrading from a Latin-1 wiki, use upgrade1_5.php (found in MediaWiki 1.5) to convert the relevant parts of the database to UTF-8 ( needs to be set to true in your for this to work). Next, run update.php, and then set the option in LocalSettings.php to the encoding previously used by the wiki (e.g. windows-1252). This is basically how Wikipedia and other Wikimedia Foundation sites were upgraded from MediaWiki 1.4 to 1.5 – see the relevant settings file (warning: huge page!) and some related notes at Wikitech. You may need to upgrade to MediaWiki 1.4 before running the upgrade1.5 script. If you want to make a database dump (e.g. MySQL) of your Latin-1 wiki, make sure the type of the  field in the  table is , not  , to avoid character encoding issues.

If you are upgrading from MediaWiki 1.5 or newer, you can upgrade in one step, from your old version to the latest stable version. The vast majority of reports, as well as automated testing, indicate that doing it in one step works just fine. If you have trouble believing this, read this mailing list post. However, please note that when you update from old versions, chances that you will encounter PHP errors are bigger than when you upgrade from the version directly previous to the new version. You would have received these errors anyway, also if you had not skipped versions, but if you had each time done each single update. Only will you - when you skipped versions - get them all at the same time. This will make the upgrade more difficult, but do not forget that you did not have the trouble updating to the intermediate versions, which you skipped!

Should I back up first?
Short answer: Yes.

Long answer: It depends on a) how much you value your data, b) how hard it is to create a backup and c) how confident you are with MySQL maintenance and administration.

An upgrade failure may leave your database in an inconsistent state, in between two versions. A PHP or MySQL error might happen during upgrade leaving your database partly upgraded. In such situations it may be possible to somehow fix this problem with much manual work. However, it will be way easier to just put a database backup from before running update.php in place and to continue with that. Otherwise you might have hours of - needless - work.

Recovery is often complex. Volunteers on the support forums are unlikely to be impressed if you neglect to make a backup and then need help to recover from upgrade-related corruption. A better outcome is if you can revert to your backup, and then report the bug against the corresponding MediaWiki project in the upgrade process which caused the corruption.

Can I keep my LocalSettings.php?
Yes, but you may have to make some minor changes. The format of is largely backwards compatible. Changes which break LocalSettings.php compatibility will be documented in the "configuration changes" section of the release notes.

Can my wiki stay online while it is upgrading?
Generally yes, however Git may temporarily (for a few seconds) break it.

If you are upgrading between minor releases of MediaWiki, all you need to do is update the source files.

Note: the following assumes you have command line access. If you are upgrading between major releases of MediaWiki, the preferred procedure is as follows:
 * 1) Unpack the new version of MediaWiki into a new directory
 * 2) Prepare that new directory: copy your current LocalSettings.php from the old directory, copy any installed extensions and custom skins (if any). Check  setting in LocalSettings.php and if necessary copy logo file from the old directory to the new directory.
 * 3) In the release notes for the new version, see if any changes need to be made to LocalSettings.php.
 * 4) Place the database in read-only mode by inserting the following variable into LocalSettings.php in the old directory - users will see this message if they attempt an edit during the upgrade process:
 * 5) * This no longer works since MediaWiki 1.27, which also prevents running the update script. See.
 * 6) Run the update script or the web updater in the new directory.
 * 7) Copy the images from the images sub-directory from the old directory to the new directory.
 * 8) Swap the old directory and the new directory.

Why upgrade?

 * Subscribe to mediawiki-announce to be notified of new releases.

Because it's usually easy enough, a single step from your version to latest and also via web.

Recent releases receive security fixes to keep your wiki and your host safe from vandals, while old releases don't (see ). That makes dozens good reasons to upgrade!

New major releases come with new features, which you might want to use: see the release notes for details. In case you need additional arguments to convince your bosses to let you upgrade from a pretty old version, here is a summary:


 * Since 1.5, edits can be previewed before saving also as diff.
 * Since 1.9, an undo button is available.
 * Since 1.12, patrolling on Special:NewPages is much easier.
 * Since 1.13, you can rename (move) files.
 * Since 1.14, you can fix double redirects automatically.
 * Since 1.16, is available.
 * If you have appropriate caching, since 1.17 optimizes pageload speeds a lot.
 * Since 1.17, category sorting makes sense! (especially for non-English letters); extended to 68 languages after.
 * Since and, users of all languages and genders are correctly addressed by the interface and logs (before 1.15, no gender at all).
 * In the skinning system was reworked making it easier to reuse parts of existing skins in your own skins.
 * Since 1.20, diffs are more readable.
 * In 1.21 and 1.23, email notifications become clearer and more predictable, making your wiki more effective.
 * Since 1.22, vandal fighting (patrolling) is less time-consuming.


 * In 1.24, password storage was improved to allow for better security.


 * Since 1.25, enhanced recent changes are available


 * In 1.26, the "ResourceLoader" mechanism was improved


 * In 1.27, the session management was reworked as well as the user authentication management completely modernized.


 * Since 1.29, the Action API was reworked and improved. Also user group assignments may now be done for a selectable period.

See also the list of the most voted fixed issues on up to 2014.

Also, in MediaWiki 1.18 we started bundling some vital extensions, like a better editor and anti-vandalism tools ConfirmEdit and Nuke; more have been added in later releases.
