Re: Vector skin not working

Hi andre,

thanks for reply so quickly.

I created a new Debian with apache2. Then I downloaded core-REL1_33.tar.gz from wikimedia.org and extracted it to /var/www/html/mediawiki . Next I exported the Database from old server to new.
And then I went through the setup wizzard.

I have already found this https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Common_errors_and_symptoms#The_wiki_appears_without_styles_applied_and_images_are_missing and checked all the hints. But I didn't find a glue to fix vector skin.

Ok. This not my first try to update my mediawiki. First try was to go to newest version was also not successful.  So I planned to go in smaller steps. The still running version 1.31.14 I installed from Debian repository but this was not updated for a long time. My users are waiting  for new features they have read mediawiki.org.

See you,
Hans-G.

How exactly did you "move"/update? Is anything shown in webserver error logs and/or the web browser's console when loading the site? Also see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Common_errors_and_symptoms#The_wiki_appears_without_styles_applied_and_images_are_missing

Also please note that 1.33.x has been unsupported in upstream for more than a year and has known security vulnerabilities in upstream.
See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download for supported versions.

Cheers,
andre
