There aren't. Every path is at LocalSettings.php >From your description looks like the web path is different, eg. your wiki used to be at http://server/~Tod/wiki/ and now it is at http://server/wiki/. And that the wiki is trying to include the urls from http://server/~Tod/wiki/images/... which doesn't work since they are now at http://server/wiki/ on the fictional layout I mentioned. Look at which url is it expecting the images and fix the appropiate variable at localsettings. The value doesn't need to be a full url, but should at least be a url relative to the web root (beginning with a slash), or it may fail with articles containing / in its name _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
