Hello everyone!
If I need to migrate a MediaWiki installation from one machien to
another, how do I go about that task?
In other words:
1) Is there an established procedure?
2) If so, where is it described?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,

I just did that. I backed up (Linux, using tar) my MediaWiki
directory. I backed up the database. Then I ftp'd the directory
structure to the new server and untarred it. Then I imported the
database into the database on the new server.
If you have images, execute the maintenance/importImages.php script
from the command line.
It worked like a dream!
