Convert a dokuwiki to mediawiki

To convert a dokuwiki installation to a mediawiki installation:

• 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.
• copy every file in dokuwiki's data/pages folder to mediawiki's maintenance folder
• cd to the maintenance folder of your mediawiki, e.g.

cd /srv/www/htdocs/maintenance

• import all text files:

for i in *.imp; do php importTextFile.php $i; done
