Hi List!
I was asked to move one of our wikis (see http://uwe-kern.de/winfwiki/index.php/Spezial:Version) from "uwe-kern.de/winfwiki/index.php/" to the new domain "wiki.intermoves.de/index.php/". The server is still the same, only the document root changed (namebased virtual hosting).
So i copied all the wiki-files into the new directory, removed the images directory from the old location and linked it into the new, and changed $wgScriptPath in the new location's LocalSettings.php to match the new URL: old: $wgScriptPath = "/winfwiki"; new: $wgScriptPath = "";
All other pathes still have default values.
Then the wiki was accessable via both URLs. When an article that links to other articles using the "[[articlename]]" syntay was written by someone using the "uwe-kern.de/winfwiki/index.php/" URL and someone else using "wiki.intermoves.de/index.php/" clicks the links, he gets the "not found" apache error page: Not Found The requested URL /winfwiki/index.php/Testseite was not found on this server. Apache Server at wiki.intermoves.de Port 80
This behaviour is occasionally and we have no clue why.
If a page that contains false links is then edited using the new "wiki.intermoves.de/index.php/" URL and saved again, the links work for "wiki.intermoves.de/index.php/" but not always for "uwe-kern.de/winfwiki/index.php/".
Could it be that paths are also stored in the DB and not runtime-calculated? We deactivated all caching and accelerating engines. This is what LocalSettings says about caching: ## Shared memory settings $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_NONE; $wgMemCachedServers = array();
# When you make changes to this configuration file, this will make # sure that cached pages are cleared. $configdate = gmdate( 'YmdHis', @filemtime( __FILE__ ) ); $wgCacheEpoch = max( $wgCacheEpoch, $configdate );
Any help/hint is very welcome as we can't move our wiki until this issue is resolved :(
With regards,
Heiner Wulfhorst
