Well, Mikey, probably I was not clear due to my poor english... (and probably is due to my poor english that your post seems offensive to me...)
I had several problem in a local box (strange url behaviour, php error)...
Thanks to platonides I fixed the php errors, simply due to a not enough mem resources...
After several tests the url problem seems to be related to the charset encoding in MySQL tables due to the export-import procedure. After the db export, I've found something that sounds like an inconsistency:
The word in the page name is Capacità... I've found the same word in a wiki link. Two word are not "written" in the same way (as example, if I export with hex encoding I see the difference showed in my previous post). After the import in the local db, the internal link in the page is written in the same way BUT the page name is changed... thus the link "ask" for a new page to be created...
This problem, IMHO, concerns the interaction between MySQL, phpMyAdmin and the MediaWiki db structure... and, of course, something I'm missing.
