Upgrading from the Debian package

Version 1.1 by Vincent Massol on 2024/04/02

  • Update packages index:

    sudo apt-get update

  • Package upgrade:

    sudo apt-get upgrade

    This will upgrade all packages, not just XWiki. If you want to avoid all the other packages and only update XWiki, you can use sudo apt-get install xwiki-tomcat8-mysql (change xwiki-tomcat8-mysql for the top level package you installed if you installed something else).

    Warning

    When upgrading from pre 9.5 version apt-get upgrade won't find anything because the package name changed (XWiki Enterprise does not exist anymore).

    All you have to do in this case is install the xwiki-tomcat* package corresponding to the top level xwiki-enterprise-tomcat* one you installed previously. For example if you had xwiki-enterprise-tomcat8-mysql 9.4 you should do sudo apt-get install xwiki-tomcat8-mysql.

  • Pages upgrade:

    However after upgrading you still need to install the new UI; see next step Upgrading the flavor below.
