I had to change the path to tidy and add a '/' character to the front of the absolute path to the program, then it worked with 1.9.3. I noticed that the path parsing has subtle differences between MediaWiki versions.
$wgTidyBin points to the tidy executable and must be *either*:
* a full path (from filesystem root, meaning with initial '/')
or
* an executable name, which will be searched in the system PATH environment variable
Any other value will lead to undefined behavior.
This has not changed since it was introduced, so far as I know.
i.e. one example was the path rendering of $wgLogo when I first installed 1.9.3. Someone might want to check over all of the path parsing and make certain it is consistent throughout in the event someone fat fingers the strings (like I did).
Some paths which worked under 1.8 stopped working under 1.9.3. (I have used the same syntax on 1.6 through 1.8, but on 1.9.3, it stopped working unless the path specifications were precise).
Give specific examples if possible.
Note that the default LocalSettings.php as of 1.9 doesn't set as many of the path variables as previous versions did; you can either set them explicitly in LocalSettings.php or let them be interpolated against the default parents.
