Hello,
this question I asked a few days ago, no anwer yet:
I've been finetuning the systemmessages in one wiki, now I want to use them in another wiki which is on a different server. I tried using PHPmyAdmin to copy the table 'text' from one wiki to the other, but that does not seem to work. The 'text'-table is 4.2 Mb big, to big maybe or is this not the right way at all?
Anybody knows how to solve this?

Hi,
I want "Upload file" and this menu option is not present in toolbox. What I do so that it appears?
tks, Cris
Uploads aren't enabled by default in MediaWiki. Enabling them is usually a simple process of:
1. Making the images directory world-writable 2. Setting $wgEnableUploads = true; in LocalSettings.php

Please don't start new threads by replying to existing messages and changing the subject line. Most mail clients (though not Outlook) are able to sort messages into discussion threads, and replying to them instead of starting a new thread breaks things for the rest of us and for the archives.
Thanks.

[I don't claim this will work, but its a start]
The system messages (in MW 1.5+) are stored in the "xx_page" table, and cached as one blob in "xx_objectcache" (keyname: "yourwikiname:messages").
You'll need to extract all the rows for the Mediawiki namespace:
SELECT * FROM `xx_text` WHERE `page_namespace` =8
Then you'll need to delete the pages in that namespace from the other DB, and insert the exported pages (without having ID clashes).
Now you'll also need to remove the cached object and re-edit your "Special:Allmessages" page, so the objectcache blob is restored.
And ofcourse before you start, make tested backups.
