I mean, enter the URL, hit show page, no page is returned.
I do not have an example site, at this time, "visible", I suppose I could try to set one up. My only example right now is on my home system, you are welcome to stop by ... ;)
Yes, no corruption. A simple change from b-w to boinc-wiki and back, with the change to the folder name is all that is done. So, no 404 error saying the page could not be found, but no page content either (though most browsers "pretend" to load a page before coming up blank).
It should not be hard to see if you see the same problem. On a small test installation, change the folder name, change the local settings file to have the new name, and see if what I have seen is reproducible. Maybe it is just me. I will look at the FAQ to see if anything leaps out at me.
And if I can set up a test instance I will let you know. My problem is one of resources, time and so forth, but I will try. As far as an "Error Log" is this something I need to turn on? If not, where is the contents written, I can look there. I do NOT have command line access to the "visible" site, so, that limits me somewhat ... but the local site, including if Apache is supposed to be logging errors (or you can tell me how to turn this on for testing purposes). NONE of the configuration documentation (which is not very intuitive or organized) is constructed in a way that tells a new person how to improve their "self-defense". I have some notes on *MY* experience and I was planning (in my copious free time) to make some additions to the documentation you have.
Thanks, and I will let you know what I can do, if I can show an example site that you can look at ... or not, if what I say happens ... :)

Ok, I install all the files to something/b-w/
Run the index page, get a config file, stand up the WIki. Make sure it works and so on.
Now, rename the directory to the "real" target, say something/boinc- wiki ... change the one line in the config file ... it should come up. Nope, no site.
What does this mean, "nope, no site"?
Can you describe it? Can you provide a URL to the site for us to look at? Is it blank? What's in your error log? Are you keeping an error log? What have you tried so far? Have you confirmed that you haven't corrupted the LocalSettings.php file, causing a fatal parsing error? etc
