This describes how to convert a dokuwiki installation to a mediawiki installation. All history, users and access control lists will not be taken over:

  • install mediawiki. In this example we assume you install to /srv/www/htdocs.
  • convert the syntax of every dokuwiki page to Mediawiki's syntax. MediaSyntax has a converter for this. Also, this howto has been tested with version 1.16.
  • cd to the maintenance folder of your mediawiki, e.g.
cd /srv/www/htdocs/maintenance
  • import all text files from dokuwiki, e.g.:
for i in /srv/www/htdocs/dokuwiki/data/pages/*; do php importTextFile.php $i; done
  • now you will want to care about subdirectories, images and files in the dokuwiki as well
