Hi, I've been trying to set up mediawiki-vagrant on my machine.But Vagrant crashes everytime. It says that vagrant home directory(address) has spaces, even though I've installed C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant . and cloned medaiwiki-vagrant at C:/myMediawiki/vagrant. Need help.

Yeah, that error message is super confusing. The vagrant home directory is actually in c:\users\<your username>\.vagrant.d by default. You can change that path by changing the VAGRANT_HOME environment variable, either by using export VAGRANT_HOME=c:\HashiCorp\.vagrant.d in bash, or by following https://superuser.com/questions/949560/how-do-i-set-system-environment-vari… . Hope this helps! Merlijn

Thanks Merlijn! That worked. Now , I am interested in Wiktionary and Wikidata and want to contribute to them . I've setup mediawiki-vagrant successfully and running it. Now , how do I setup and run wikitionary and wikidata on my local machine . I didn't see any clear guidelines for that . I think , one probably needs to utilize the memory dumps of the projects . Where can I find these dumps ? I'll probably write an article on the contributors section too after discovering the path myself . Besides, Should I create a new thread for this ? Devang(dg711)

There is a wikidata role for MediaWiki-Vagrant that you can enable: `vagrant roles enable wikidata && vagrant provision`. The role only includes the wikidata software and not any dump data.

Where can I find these dumps ? I'll probably write an article on the contributors section too after discovering the path myself .
