Re: Failed 1.4 upgrade (??)

Still no luck upgrading to 1.4. I guess something is missing in the 
instructions:

I untarred the archive in /usr/local and made a symlink from my documentroot

Then I copied the old Localsetting.php and modified contents to correct 
paths

The I ran update with the following result:

---------
[root@kropix mediawiki-1.4.0]# php maintenance/update.php
PHP Warning:  chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in 
/usr/local/mediawiki-1.4.0/maintenance/commandLine.inc on line 28
Content-type: text/html
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.10

A copy of your installation's LocalSettings.php
must exist in the source directory.
-----------

So what does this script do, and how can I check if it did anything: ie 
does it modify the database??
