Thread:Project:Support desk/How do I determine the version of MediaWiki from the database?

So my hosting provider basically lost my entire website, but I have a backup of the database. I know that I have an install that is 1.5.x but I can't determine which version I had installe d (i installed it probably 3 years ago), and my attempts to just use 1.5.8 (and edit the database info) have failed unfortunately.

Anyone have any ideas on how I can determine which version of MediaWIki my database is for just based on the database?

Thanks in advance!
