I tried to upgrade a test-wiki (MW 1.23) from SMW 2.4.x to 2.5.
upgrade.php works quite far, but then throws an error:
Database initialized completed. Import of vocabulary.json ... ... creating MediaWiki:Smw import skos contents ... ... creating MediaWiki:Smw import foaf contents ... ... creating MediaWiki:Smw import owl contents ... ... creating Attribut:Foaf:knows contents ... ... creating Attribut:Foaf:name contents ... ... creating Attribut:Foaf:homepage contents ... ... creating Attribut:Owl:differentFrom contents ... ... done. Import processing completed. ...site_stats is populated...done. Fatal error: Call to a member function getValueFormatter() on a non-object in ../extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/includes/datavalues/SMW_DV_String.php on line 74
The solution was to deactivate Semantic Glossary. So this is probably some incompatibliity with Semantic Glossary and SMW 2.5?
