From time to time the wiki software needs to be updated (administrators will see warnings on top of the page such as security alerts, new release and so on).
Administrators will need to update the software. Here is the procedure to follow.
First, read the complete howto update the wiki. The following is a summary and practical version of it.
Tools: In order to copy the files you will need to use sftp protocol. Using the command line arguments is not always fun, so use something like FileZilla instead. In addition to provide a GUI interface, you will be able to do some recursive copy that will not be possible with command line arguments.
You will need to be able to access to the gforge via sftp/scp. Here using sftp is enough. For instance using the command line, type
scp -r login@scm.gforge.inria.fr:/home/groups/openalea/htdocs/dokuwiki ./dokuwiki_backup
Otherwise, you can proceed through FileZilla. Note that copying the files is longish because there is no recursive copy in sftp.
wget http://www.splitbrain.org/_media/projects/dokuwiki/dokuwiki-rc2010-10-27.tgz tar -xzvf dokuwiki-rc2010-10-27.tgz
cd dokuwiki-rc2010-10-27 scp -r dokuwiki-rc2010-10-27 login@scm.gforge.inria.fr:/home/groups/openalea/htdocs/dokuwiki
Within fileZilla, simply drag and drop the new version you have downloaded into the remote sftp location.
