Thread:Project:Support desk/Problem migrating to new server

I am attempting to migrate a wiki to a new host. I believe I have created the new database correctly, and configured LocalHost.php with the new data. The The host provider has given me a temporary URL to access the site in the form of "Http://some.odd.url/~folsom9.

When I access that URL and the wiki, "http://some.odd.url/~folsom9/wiki" I get a 404 Not Found of the form "http://some.odd.url/wiki/index.php?title=Folsom_Family_Wiki_Main_Page.

In other words, the original URL with the "/~folsom9" omitted.

Is there a chance the "~" in the path name is messing up the process, or is it more likely I screwed up LocalSettings.php?

Thanks,

Al Folsom
