Hmm... First, take a peek in the database:
SELECT * FROM page WHERE page_namespace=4 and page_title='Terms_of_use';
make sure it made it through intact.
I had to change 'page' to 'mw_page' to run the query. All the tables in the database are prefixed with "mw_". Is this incorrect? No results, though I found the talk page in namespace 5. That means it didn't make the transition. I'll go back to an earlier snapshot pre-upgrade (I'm using VMWare) to make sure it survived the mysql database import.
This is actually a known problem with Apache 2's path handling; it merges adjacent /s before they get passed down to the level where the wiki sees it.
Are you running Apache 1.x on the main server and Apache 2.x on the test server, perhaps?
Ouch. Yes, we're running 1.333 on the main server, and Apache2 on the test server. Thanks for the heads up. You don't happened to know if there is a workaround do you? I realize it's not a Mediawiki problem, though.
- "My Watchlist" page is empty of links, even though pages
are still marked
as watched and show up in recent changes as bolded.
Check with some new edits and confirm it's not just that older items fell off the list...?
I tried clicking the 'all' link, and still no older pages in the watchlist appear. I also tried editing the url to '/w/index.php?title=Special:Watchlist&days=60' with no result. Checking Special:Recentchanges with a 30 day timeframe shows multiple watched pages.
On a more process-related note, would you rather that issues like these were split into multiple posts, or in a single one like this? Or should issues be put directly into Bugzilla?
Thanks for your assistance.
