Patrick,
Those changes to local/config.php improved things a lot.
The next set of gotchas are as follows:
1. Revision files in wikid have commas in them. This is not allowed
on YahooMerchant.
2. There are several other files that start with a '.' (dot)
1. .flock
2. .lastmod
3. .pageindex
4. .htaccess
3. logging in doesn't work
Again, any suggestions welcome.
