I have mediawiki installed on an ubuntu machine, which worked fine for the longest time. I use the wiki infrequently, it had probably been weeks since I used it last, but when I tried to open it a few days ago I get the error message "The requested URL /mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page was not found on this server."
When I check /var/log/apache2/error.log I see the line: [Fri Feb 01 12:14:10 2008] [error] [client 192.168.1.102] File does not exist: /var/lib/mediawiki1.7 Playing with the locate command, I see that I get a few results for mediawiki1.7 and pages of results for mediawiki1.10 $ locate mediawiki1.7 /var/lib/dpkg/info/mediawiki1.7.postrm /var/lib/dpkg/info/mediawiki1.7.list /etc/apache2/conf.d/mediawiki1.7.conf /etc/mediawiki1.7 /etc/mediawiki1.7/cherokee.conf /etc/mediawiki1.7/LocalSettings.php.var-dpkg-backup /etc/mediawiki1.7/LocalSettings.php /etc/mediawiki1.7/apache.conf /etc/mediawiki1.7/README So I figure I must have upgraded to mediawiki1.10 at some point, I'm not sure if it was during one of Ubuntu's daily updates or what, and that I must still have a setting somewhere pointing to 1.7 that I should redirect to 1.10. The problem is that when grep all the config files in /etc/apache2 I don't see any mention of mediawiki1.7. apt-cache policy indicates that mediawiki1.7 should not be installed, so I'm not sure that doing an apt-get remove mediawiki1.7 would do anything, and I'm a little hesitant to just try it out of concern I might make things worse. So I'm looking for advice on where I should be looking to let apache know it should be using mediawiki1.10, as I'm not sure where else to look from here. -- John D.
