Thread:Project:Support desk/Easy way to upgrade from version 1.8 to 2.1?/reply (23)

Earlier you said that the table "page" was missing in your DB which made me ask, if your DB got imported completely (it obviously did not that time).

Now you know that this time in this database you currently have a sum of 3540 pages (including deleted pages). There are 14071 text revisions in the DB for these pages; that means that on average each page has around 4 revisions. These numbers should reflect what you expect to have inside the wiki. When they do, then double check that in LocalSettings.php you have set $wgDBuser, $wgDBname and $wgDBpassword to the correct values. Check by using

mysql -u [user] -h [host] -p[password]; use [db-name];

on the shell. Using the username, password and DB name from LocalSettings.php should not give you an error message.

When that worked, then use update.php again and post its output here.
