Obsolete:Conversion to utf-8

This page is kept for historical interest. Don't expect its contents to be relevant to the current day.

To clear messages cache in memcached :

cd /home/wikipedia/common/php-new/maintenance
php mcc.php
delete eswiki:messages
quit

To invalidate the client cache, parser cache and anonymous file cache, set $wgCacheEpoch to the current date in /home/wikipedia/common/php-new/InitialiseSettings.php, for the converted wiki only.

The squid cache must be marked with the correct expiry time in advance. Something along these lines should work:

$dday = strtotime('July 10');
if ( $wgDBname == 'dewiki' && time() < $dday ) {
    $wgSquidMaxage = $dday - time();
}
