This page contains very sketchy steps for setting up (in my case moving) an existing mediawiki installation to AWS. This list is mostly for myself to remember what steps I have taken.
Mediawiki Installation/Upgrade
- Follow the steps from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading
- Download the new mediawiki in a directory belonging to the Web server
- unzip/untar.
- Create new MySql user/password/database on localhost (same host as Web server)
- Verify that base directory of mediawiki installation is accessible from a browser by putting a phpinfo.php file in it and loading it up with browser.
- use browser and point to /mw-config in the mediawiki web directory. Enter database information.
- Update the LocalSettings.php file
- If migrating, copy the extensions, skins, images, media, Downloads directory from old wiki to new installed wiki.
- Install one extension at a time in extensions directory, and at the end of LocalSettings.php
Updated Extensions
I had to update several extensions to match the new format.
