Thanks, Jimmy. UPGRADE is the entry point indeed!
But I'd already read that and was not able to find references to how to move, if
possible, the contents of a MediaWiki: 1.5.7 based wiki to a MediaWiki: 1.8.2 one. This
file has not this purpose, of course!
I could do an upgrade of the 1.5.7 installation to 1.8.2, then back up and restore the
data in the new location. But I'm having some problems with PHP in this box and it
will be great to avoid this path.
I could install 1.5.7 either in the new box, move contents, then do an upgrade. It is
probably the easiest path.
But once installed 1.8.2 in the new server, I was wondering if there is some script/tool
that could avoid me any of both update processes.
Please, accept my apologies if I am messing things at any extent or missing any important
point.
Any help will be welcome!
Cheers,
Ricardo
