Sure. I already answered you on the list.
Your new php has no support for gdbm. That's it.

You can try for example to setup your own local phpwiki with a php
with gdbm support,
export all your pages there and impiort into your live wiki, after you
changed the database
backend to a driver which is supported in your new php.
