Switching servers shouldn't affect access to the database, so it's possible that DH made a mistake in the move; feel free to contact their support. For the internal server errors, follow MediaWiki's debugging instructions < http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_debug>. Your server's error log is located at /home/username/logs/http/error.log. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
