Thread:Project:Support desk/Problem importing from old wiki to new/reply

Hi Chris!

I recommend to import the wiki DB differently: Create a dump of the database with the MySQL tool mysqldump and then on the new server use mysql to import that dump again.

Note that when you run PHP commands from the shell, you must use at least PHP version 5.3. On your new server, the command "php" however executes only PHP 4.3.9. This version is incompatible with MediaWiki 1.22.
