Hi,
I've been runnning MediaWiki as a proof-of-concept for technical documentation. It's gained a lot of support, and so it's being moved from it's current home on my development box to a production server.
The version I'm running at the moment is WIN32 based using EasyPHP.
The intention is to move to Linux.
Can anyone give me any pointers for performing this migration?
Just dump your database in a file.sql Install the Linuxbox with everything you need. (LAMP) Load the dump in a new Database. Install mediawiki just like normal.
Presumably I can take the current MySql datafiles and copy them across unaltered, but I'd have a tidying up exercise when it comes to uploaded
No, you just can't copy mysql-files from win to linux. You need to dump the db.
images/document, and their relative paths?
Just take the images directory and copy it to the new machine in the images directory there.
--manfred
Any advice/pointers appreciated
Sean
