Thread:Project:Support desk/MediaWiki 1.5 to 1.21 upgrade/reply (5)

i have all the newest versions on the new server (debian squeeze)

installed using these commands:

aptitude install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5 php5-imap aptitude install mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql aptitude install phpmyadmin

followed manual 1.21 install procedure

current version of mediawiki (working) is from here (OpenVZ appliance) - http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/MediaWiki (Debian Squeeze, MediaWiki 1.15, MySQL5.1, Postfix, Apache2, PHP5.3)

tried copying over the whole folder and DB - get a forbidden error on the new server

on the old server the mediawiki folder is in the /var/lib folder but when installing the 1.21 version the folder goes in /var/www?

any advice?
