You say you've looked at your LocalSettings.php, but have you looked
nearer the top - I usually forget I've changed things up there when
upgrading, for example. I'm talking about ie $wgServer, $wgScriptPath
and $wgArticlePath - were they set to anything before, and aren't now?
When I've got 500 server errors before, it's been due to that.

We run four instances of MediaWiki on our website. Two

than the standard spam headaches.
I upgraded the software on 3 of the wikis last night with no problems.
Strangely enough, the upgrade worked for one of the wikis which is down.
But I can't get the wiki to display anything at all.

I've checked the paths in the LocalSettings.php file. They look fine. I
even compared them to another LocalSettings file for a wiki that works.
I just can't figure out why this wiki is displaying a mysterious Server
Error page when the other wikis are working.
We upgraded to PHP 5 recently, but these two wikis went down before that.
Have people had any experiences with hackers or spammers bringing down a
wiki by inserting bad data?
I'm really banging my head against the wall on this one, so any insights
are appreciated.
