All went well, but mediawiki does not know about the
files yet. I
thought running
./maintenance/rebuildImages.php
is the right thing to do, but it is undocumented and does not achieve anything.
output is:
Processing image...
Finished image... 0 of 0 rows updated
Processing oldimage...
Finished oldimage... 0 of 0 rows updated
Any hints how to restore the image to the wiki?
Sure. Easy. :)
Step -1: The images should *not* be inside your wiki's images/ dir,
put them somewhere else.
Step 0: *REMOVE* thumbs/ and archive/ (you might want a copy of that)
and everything that's not part of the 0/ through f/ dirs.
Step 1: Flatten the directory structure. Yes, seriously. Put all
images in one flat dir. find with mv does the trick nicely.
Step 2: Run importImages.php and point it to the flattened directory
your images are in.
Step 3: Put archive/ back in place, if you want it.
Tada!
Like I said: easy. ;)
