Have you tried using diff to reveal what is different between your clean version of
MediaWiki and the broken one you've been given?

I volunteered to administrate a wiki which was left to itself for
quite some time.
The previous admin left in a bad way and it's possible he messed stuff
up purposefully before he left.
So I upgraded the wiki to 1.19.1 by copying the LocalSettings.php over
to a folder containing 1.19.1, then commenting out all stuff by the
old admin I didn't like and then using the web updater.
The wiki is running at the moment, but I have one problem: When I try
to register a test account, it doesn't work:
The user account was not created, as we could not
confirm its
source. Ensure you have cookies enabled, reload this page and try
again.
When trying to log into my existing account, I get
PandoraWiki uses cookies to log in users. You
have cookies
disabled. Please enable them and try again.
But cookies are enabled. I even tried
another browser to be sure.
The server also has no problems with cookies in principle: I wrote a
test script (see
http://wiki.openpandora.de/myCookieTest.php) and I
could set cookies from there just fine.
I also read about the config option to disable the cookie check, so I
put the following line into my LocalSettings.php:
$wgDisableCookieCheck=true;
But that doesn't change anything.
I've also redownloaded MediaWiki, checked whether the downloaded
archive was correct, unpacked it and reuploaded all files again to be
sure there are no problems there.
So now I've kinda run out of ideas what might be the problem.
If you want to see yourself, the wiki is located there:
http://wiki.openpandora.de/index.php?title=Spezial:Anmelden
There are also some problems with some (not all) thumbnails (see the
mainpage), but I haven't really looked into that, it's far down my
priority list at the moment.
