Not sure if this is the kind of level you are after but this is what I wrote up for use in my organisation if we need to perform a complete disaster recovery of our wiki. This has been tested numerous times for both recovery on the same server, as well as migrating to another server. I haven't tried between OS though but don't see there would be any issues with that.
Before doing this, Apache2 needs to be configured in the same manner (ie same directory root etc), correct php version installed and compiled, etc.
A couple of things: wikidb.servername.$DAY is just a gzipped mysql dump of the database. wikifiles.$DAY.tbz is simply a tar of the entire directory structure. I have a cron job run daily to backup both.
Create Database Mysql –u root –p Create database wikidb; Exit Restore Database files Cd /<backup location> Gunzip wikidb.servername.$DAY.gz Mysql –u root –p wikidb < wikidb.servername.$DAY
Ensure database restored mysql -u root -p wikidb show tables; <list of tables (about 35 should appear).
Create Wiki User account in MYSQL Mysql –u root -p create user 'wikiuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password to be used: IMPORTANT make sure this is also the same as in the LocalSettings.php file!'; Grant privileges to wikiuser on wikidb database Mysql –u root –p GRANT ALL ON wikidb.* TO wikiuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password to be used'; Flush privileges;
Restore wiki config files and images Cd / Tar –xvjf /<backup location>/wikifiles.$DAY.tbz Complete restore process complete – to make sure, perform test plan again
Potential things that ** may ** be required are: /<wiki install>/maintenance/php5 rebuildall.php Double double check the correct database, username, password are used in the /<wiki install>/LocalSettings.php file Make sure apache is set up correctly, and the wiki location set appropriately in the LocalSettings.php file

Realizing the article is there, I've seen a ton of questions raised about the process as that page directs, issues coming up, doesn't work, etc. The "manual" I'm talking about would be something tested at every stage and the doesn't assume any user knowledge at all.

Seems this question comes up a lot, as well as the question as to all the various steps needed, doorknob to doorknob as they say, to back up and restore an entire DB. Maybe an exhaustive how-to manual of these two items would be a good idea. Anyone? Bueller? Anyone?

What would the easiest way be to move a MediaWiki installation from one server to another? I have installed MySQL and PHP already on the new server. What I had in mind was to setup the latest MediaWiki installation on the new server, export all the pages and import them on the new server. Is there an easier way?
