Well, in our case it turned out that we had a lot of bad data in our wiki
(its almost 2G of data now) and the upgrade scripts were failing.  I
needed to basically add a few debugging lines to the moin conversion
script and search for the text where each bit failed and fix our data
files by hand.

I also had to download a meta file that was supposed to exist in our
install but, for whatever reason, did not. Other then those steps I just
followed the README.migrate that came with the RPM.
