Hello,

It works wonderful, but I did find a couple of strange things:

The import page is still referring to a beta:
http://www.xxxxxxx.com/index.php?title=Special:Import

The system messages-page errors:

Warning: set_time_limit(): Cannot set time limit in safe mode in
/home/httpd/vhosts/xxxxxxxx.com/httpdocs/includes/SpecialAllmessages.php
on line 8
http://www.xxxxxxxx.com/index.php?title=Special:Allmessages

I get an error message at:
http://www.xxxxxxxx.com/index.php?title=Special:Maintenance&subfunction=disambiguations

wfSpecialDisambiguation is broken. Link tables have changed...


Further, I have chmodded my images directory, also for TMP, like
suggested, but I am a bit concerned that it is possible to upload
malicious code there to. Is there a way to prevent this? .htaccess?

Anyway, nice piece of work! Thanks!

Not complete.

Safe mode sucks; even the PHP documentation says it's "architecturally
incorrect". We can probably suppress the messages...

These functions are rarely used and not maintained. If you'd like to
have a go and fixing them up, feel free.

Is image uploading enabled? If not, then you have to have something
_else_ on your server that allows uploading arbitrary files into _that_
directory.
