Hi List,

Gordon's hint solved our Problems --> "Thank you very much, Gordon!". We 
reinstalled a testwiki after moving it and all internal links worked 
great.
I really hope this works for our real system, too.

Do you think it is possible to copy the files and let 2 wiki installations 
run in the same database? 

Best regards,

Heiner
