Okay...that's a bit weird. Where is the webserver root for the wiki then? Is the vendor directory present there? If symlinks are set up manually I'm going to guess not, since vendor was introduced recently. (basically every directory in the second line of <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/MDEB/browse/master/debian/mediawiki.install;12a9e70e20eaa03964a9ef272643d85a1d04102e$2>, I think serialized is new as well, though it's only required when logging in IIRC). In general, I would recommend spending some time getting your wiki out of a user's home directory and using the normal filesystem layout the package sets up (documented at <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Legoktm/Packages#Filesystem>), it will make things a lot easier. -- Kunal
