2 If you are trying to move a MediaWiki, please use the detailed
3 instructions [here](/faq/88).
5 In this example, Ben Bitdiddle will be move a wiki to the 6.001
6 locker. First he makes sure the 6.001 locker is signed up for the
7 scripts and SQL services:
9 > athena% **add scripts**
10 > athena% **signup-web**
12 > athena% **signup-sql**
15 Then he copies over the files:
17 > athena% **attach** bitdiddl 6.001
18 > athena% **cp -a /mit/**bitdiddl**/web\_scripts/**wiki
19 > **/mit/**6.001**/web\_scripts**
21 Then he dumps the SQL database, creates a database named *wiki* for
22 6.001 by logging into [sql.mit.edu](http://sql.mit.edu) as 6.001,
23 and restores the dump into the 6.001 locker. A database dump can be
24 created and restored either [with phpMyAdmin](/faq/10/), or with
27 > athena% **ssh -k scripts**
28 > [bitdiddl@scripts]$ **mysqldump** bitdiddl+wiki
29 > **\> database-dump.sql**
30 > [bitdiddl@scripts]$ **exit**
31 > athena% **mv database-dump.sql /mit/**6.001**/web\_scripts**
32 > athena% **ssh -k**6.001**@scripts**
33 > [6.001@scripts]$ **mysql** 6.001+wiki **< database-dump.sql**
35 Finally, he edits the configuration files in
36 /mit/6.001/web\_scripts/wiki to use the 6.001 locker's username and
37 password. For MediaWiki, this is done in the file
38 **LocalSettings.php**.
