I need to move a mediawiki site from a drive on my server that is running Linux Mint LMDE flavor: to a drive on that same sever that is running Ubuntu Enterprise server. Both are latest versions. I exported the database (MySqlDump) and have it "backed Up" as well from Webmin. No issues there as I got the exact same size file after exporting it 2 times, 4.1Gb. I tried to do a standard upgrade after installing the new mediawiki 1.24.2 to the ubuntu server. i.e. following the instructions from mediawiki. it said I was successful, but I was never able to get the site to open, just a blank page. i tried stripping down the site and removing most of the extensions so that is not the issue. I finally decide the installl was somehow corrupted and put up a brand new site from scratch and it is running fine. So I tried using the imported data base by simply changing the name of the datsbase in LocalSettings.php. that seems to have worked sort of, but the graphics and several main page links are missing. So here is my question. How can I fix this. Any tips or ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Did you download vendor and did you install vector skin.

And look your error log to see where error is coming from.

The path configuration in LocalSettings.php is probably incorrect. See $wgScriptPath etc.
