We're trying to upgrade a French language wiki for educative purposes from 1.13.0 to 1.15.1, and at the same time migrate it to from shared hosting to a dedicated server running Debian.
Most things are working fine, except for a weird problem with images with filenames with accented characters. Characters in the texts are working fine however.
When #$wgHashedUploadDirectory = false; is commented out images are showing. With $wgHashedUploadDirectory = false; images aren't showing and upload.
When we upload a file called "a-é-çtest3.png" the following error shows up: Impossible de renommer le fichier « temp/5/52/20091012063528!A-é-çtest3.png » en « public/5/52/A-é-çtest3.png »
What are the permissions of folder images/5/52/ ?
This is MediaWiki:Filerenameerror. But according to mediawiki.org this message should no longer be required - http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Filerenameerror
"No longer required" in the deletion means that it's no longer required to have a copy of the files in the MediaWiki namespace. Not that the message is no longer used.

Note that if you installed 1.10 with the "backwards compatible" schema, you will need to specify the --default-character-set=binary option to mysqldump in order to copy it correctly.
Now, we don't have SSH access at the current hosting solution and cPanel/phpMyAdmin doesn't seem to have this option. Or does it? Now we're trying to get a dump with this options through the simple hosting support but we might not be able to acquire it.
It's a bit confusing at this point. So all hints and comments are welcome.
thanks, Kasper
If your problem is just with the uploads, you're having a different problem than Matthew Richards.
