In trying to simplify things, I’ve done the following (after the appropriate backing up steps, db dump, etc.): Loaded the files in my wiki directory from mw-1.22.7 . First, because I was having the same problems with a blank wiki *even after commenting out all extensions from LocalSettings.php* I decided to start fresh and have only the files from mw-1.22.7 in /var/www/wiki. I then checked LocalSettings.php for structural naming (wiki root etc) and all looked ok. I ran ‘php maintenance/update.php’. No errors returned. Yet still a blank wiki. Is it possible that I’ve outsmarted myself and the MySQL db from my legacy wiki is now out of sync with the wiki files (which I removed after backing up)? I can reconvene the wiki as it was before; all the files exist as backups. My suspicion is that at some point my LocalSettings.php ran afoul of a MW update, even with extensions today commented out, and if I try to debug it, I might get to the heart of the matter. I must admit I’m not sure what process to use (logfiles) to follow for debugging. -- Rob Lingelbach http://rob.colorist.org http://colorist.org [email protected] _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
