Look in page, page props, page_links, logging, category, category links .....

If you are not using MySql workbench it would probably make your life easier to download from the MySql site and check it all out.

Hello

I am now really puzzled, in order to understand where mediawiki saves its information I resintalled a new mediawiki and connected it to new mysql data base. I just created on new page, called it seminar and wrote a sentence then saved the new page.

When I looked in /var/lib/mysql/maqwiki

The only files with the relevant dates where searchindex.MYD searchindex.MYI

The other files of the database where not touched.

Then I have a simple question if all relevant information is saved in these files could I not just simply shutdown the server replace these two pages (by one of a different data base) restart the server

I did this but the nothing happened. That is I only see this new page with its content, which makes me think that the information is save in some other place but where??????
