Package: phpwiki
Version: 1.3.11p1-1
Severity: normal

I upgraded a running phpwiki install from a sarge system. We used
external authentication in the past which meant that phpwiki bombed out
the first time it tried to hit the user table; after changing
ENABLE_USER_NEW to false I was able to login but phpwiki starts setting
up the database from scratch, deleting all of our content and inserting
its default pages.

Unfortunately I can't reproduce the problem, possibly because I spent
the time waiting for the tape restore modifying changes to config.ini
(to use only HttpAuth) and WikiUserNew (to fix a separate problem where
phpwiki was attempting to use its own session handler rather than rely
exclusively on the external HTTP authentication), suggesting that it had
something to do with the old user code and missing database user
entries.

Since it's probably going to be difficult to reproduce this problem I
entered this bug more to request that any updates with significant
database changes save a copy of the original sqlite file in case
something goes wrong with the update..
