no - works just fine over here. maybe you do have an issue with php? try
to load/execute <dokuwiki>/install.php ...

if you are rewriting URLs via apache, you need to change the
the .htaccess file (RewriteBase) to match the new-server's document-root
to dokuwiki path.

The problem you describe could also arise if dokuwiki uses it's cache
rather than regenerating the pages on the new server.  Dokiwiki flushes
it's cache if  you modify a config file (file timestamp): try
'touch <dokuwiki>/conf/local.php' and "shift-reload" the wiki page in
your browser..


HTH,
