Thank you so much Kasimir,
I've learned a lot from your words... My case is the last one. I get it. And I've tried it, but I have this problems:
1) I've dumped my db_domain, but when I tried to up load it in order to creat my second db_tes_domain, I've got the following massage from phpMyAdmin: 'bd_domain already exist';
Any clue?
Thanks a lot, mauro.

If you do, then all that you need to do is create a |symlink (using ln -s) to the wiki A folder. | |If you want to create a copy of the wiki and use the same database |(same edits, maybe different skins or settings), then you should keep |the same database, and just copy the files from one folder to another. | |If you want to create two completely independent wikis but have one |based on the other (a copy right now, changes will be made to each and |they will soon become different), then you need to download the entire |database to a file (use the command mysqldump) and upload all of the |tables into a new database (if you have only one database available |then just change all of the table names). You will then need to go |into LocalSettings.php for your new wiki and change all of the |database information so it is correct for either your new database or |different table names. | |I hope that this helps, |Kasimir Gabert | |On 10/20/06, Mauro do Carmo mauro@carmo.info wrote: |> Thanks Kasimir, |> |> That is great, but I looking for something simpler. |> |> Basically, I want two different wikis.
