Hello:
I upgraded MediaWiki from 1.4b5 to 1.4.2 today, and
Special:Recentchanges comes up blank! View source gives
"<html><body></body></html>". I can't find any other
problems with my
wiki (
http://jfwiki.org).
My upgrade process was by the book: back up the original wiki
directory, untar the new stuff over the old stuff, create a temporary
AdminSettings.php, and run maintenance/update.php.
Update.php said nothing alarming:
bash-2.05$ /usr/local/php/bin/php update.php
Going to run database updates for wikidb
Depending on the size of your database this may take a while!

Done.

The only odd thing was that I had tried to run this script before,
giving it the mysql "wikiuser" account instead of the mysql root
credentials. Got an error, fixed AdminSettings.php, and ran it again
with the above results.
http://jfwiki.org/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&feed=rss gives
me good data, so I know my database is OK, right? Special:Version now
says 1.4.2.
Any suggestions? Please help!
Thanks in advance,
