Tried updating semantic forms (because of problems with rendering of partial forms) with svn checkout to 2.0.1 but this is r74654 and the current version r69050 is still 1.9.1. Currently no update done but altered includes/SF_LinkUtils.php according to r74654 (empty title handling). --Andreas Plank 15:43, 12 October 2010 (CEST)

Upgrade of testwiki to r72972 caused odd webpages because new directories and files have been introduced by mediawiki.org: ./resources/ ./config/ ./load.php and the files ./load.php5 and ./trackback.php5. New symblic links were created also for the wikis following Adding a new directory link. --Andreas Plank 15:28, 14 October 2010 (CEST)

Mediawiki: Both main and staging upgraded to SVN revision 79596, this fixes the Semantic Forms bug as well as the bug with the new DB-Repo access problem. However, we tested only a slightly earlier version, so we may experience some new problems - please test and report everyone. --Gregor Hagedorn 21:36, 4 January 2011 (CET)

Linked SemanticResultFormats, SemanticMediaWiki, SemanticForms, SemanticInternalObjects, SemanticDrilldown to the /usr/share/mediawiki/phase3/extension2 folder with higher svn version (r79970) to update them later separately. It was due to a bug in MySQL LIMIT calculations triggert by large offset and limit values in #ask queries. --Andreas Plank 00:14, 12 January 2011 (CET)

Upgrading mediawiki to 1.18alpha (r80728) results in jKey and other Javascript failing in IE 8, while still working in Chrome and Firefox. Also r79970: same situation. Reverted to 79596 - no improvement. Javascript on IE fails, probably failed already before updating!

Fixed later by putting a cludge into the common.js files of assigning jquery/$. Only necessary for IE, annotated such.

1. Tried to upgrade to Debian 6 Squeeze. Does not work with current xen kernel 2.6.18xen, squeeze requires at least 2.26 or udev (all user mode devices) will not work. Fail. Back to backup of virtual machine.
2. Checking whether to update the kernel. XenServer 5.5 (and present 5.6) support a lenny kernel with 2.6.xx (check). However, we run XenServer 5.0 with service packs. Installing current XenServer 5.6.xx requires ISO-to-CD, direct updating at physical server. -> not enough time, 1 day wasted...
3. However, Upgrading Imagemagick to a current version‎ allowed to selectively compile only ImageMagick. This is now at 6.6.0-4 - identical to the current Lenny release.
4. Hoping the thumb problem can be solved with this! Gregor Hagedorn 17:34, 12 February 2011 (CET)
