Hi all I'm new to this list so please point me in the right direction should I have posted this here incorrectly.

I have a mediawiki instance running on a RHES8 server and I am trying to migrate it to Debian Sarge. I have followed numerous docs to the T and got quite far my problem however is this: when I dump my wikidb to a .sql file and then recreate the new wikidb the standard main page: http://somehost/index.php/Main_Page end is still the normal page and not the one I have on my original wiki site on RHES8. However when clicking the "Random page" link I get back all the original info that was on my old wiki.

So my question is how, do I tell my wiki where to get the main page info from.

Have you checked the history of [[Main Page]]?
