Putting back the original files did NOT get the wiki working well, which would imply that the problem was with either the permissions of the folders/files or that there is some file in the update itself that was breaking things. I can tell this because only by removing the entire directory structure could I get the backup to work. I need to go through a more thorough, file by file, search. >If you start from scratch with the Dokuwiki upgrade and can't get a >working wiki, then you know there's a conflict between the server and >the wiki software and/or setup.
