Problem
Since The Good Place uses SQLite instead of MariaDB, sometimes database-specific issues can crop up that effect the environment, but wont exist on production.

Examples

• T246917: SQLite Database Error on Special:Investigate/Compare

Quesitons

1. Is there a tool in MediaWiki (or elsewhere) to move data from one database to another?

Proposed Solution

1. Use maintenance/dumpBackup.php to create a dump of all of the pages.
2. Reinstall MediaWiki on a MariaDB database
3. Use maintenance/importBackup.php to import all of the pages

Unfortunately MediaWiki's (built in) import/export does not import/export other data (like users or CheckUser data).
