Hi everyone,
I'd like to upgrade from 1.3.1 to 1.3.9 on our internal network.
First I backup the database :
mysqldump -u root -p wikidb > wiki.db
Then, I follow the normal setup of a fresh install of mediawiki 1.3.9
When I want to restore my old data :
cat wiki.db | mysql -u root -p wikidb
this tells me : "ERROR 1050 at line 11: Table 'archive' already exists"
Indeed, the definition of the table 'archive' seems to be at line 11 of
file wiki.db, and I guess that the fresh install of mediawiki already
created such a table.
So my question would be : how do i get my old data back into my new
install of mediawiki ?
Thank's for any help.
I've been looking through the pages :

.... but i could not get any information on this problem.
