Hi John,
I backed up my database and the entire wiki folder. I didn't re-download
MediaWiki this time. I directly loaded the backup database into the new
server, and moved the entire wiki folder. I don't think the PHP versions on
both servers are exactly the same. PHP on the new server is 7.4 while on
the old one maybe 7.0 or similar.
Thanks!
Catherine

How are you doing the backup/restore? did you backup your database and
re-download mediawiki? are the versions of PHP the same on both servers?
