Thread:Project:Support desk/Manually importing database, no wiki-contents visible/reply

Hi!

I guess that in LocalSettings.php in the root of your MediaWiki installation you do not have the MySQL username and password for the correct database. Please make sure that username, password and database name point to that DB, into which you have imported the old MediaWiki database.

When you import a DB from an older MediaWiki version and then you want to use it with a newer MediaWiki version, you first must run maintenance/update.php. Make sure that you did!
