Hi Yuri,

I installed the vm image with virtualbox. I just needed to switch the networkadapter to network switch and do a ifdown -a; ifup -a on the command line. Actually I do need some example pages to test whether I can migrate the pages to sharepoint wiki, and to figure out how long it may take. Nonetheless, your reply gave me a simple alternative for installation. Hopefully, the existing mediawiki will remain, though. As far as I know, sharepoint simply uses one file per article instead of an actual database. According to my research, the markup is stored in HTML, so my best bet seems to simply copy the complete wiki through wget or similar, and then modify the html files, so that I can copy them into the corresponding sharepoint directory.

Thanks for your help, Johannes

You can download the virtual machine with MediaWiki already installed. I suspect that it will have only one Main_page though. [1]

What do you want these pages for? Do you need them for testing purposes, to see how everything look together?

Hi,

Is there a functional mediawiki with several existing pages that I can download? I mean a database backup of the wiki along with the folder with images etc.

Thanks a lot, Johannes
