[Mediawiki-l] hardcoded local links in mw_externallinks table

[Boris Epstein]

Hi all,

I attempted to move a Wiki (MediaWiki 1.8.2) and failed because lots
of images/documents/PDF's that were part of that Wiki were for some
reason in the table for the external links ( mw_externallinks ) and,
on top of that, what I got is full pathnames. So, if my Wiki used to
live under http://mywiki.mydomain.com/ the files would be listed as
http://mywiki.mydomain.com/a/0/image1.jpg and such.

Any idea why? Or how to correct that?

Thanks in advance.

Boris.
