Thanks a lot for your response.
@Jeremy: I've changed to version 1.5 but run into other problems: http://pastebin.com/3v65rt2X I think there are files missing in the source code. This directory src/org/apache/commons/compress/ is empty.
I see mwdumper has not been under development for years. What do people use to load (wiki) xml data into database?
@ Henny, I'm trying to load xml data into database not backing up my database. I saw MySQLDumper has restore script that can read data from .gz file back into database but not sure if it does what I need. I'll take a look at it.
Thanks,

Why don't you try this handy tool, works like a charm, I have used it already for a long time
That's ok if you're trying to dump a MySQL database. But better to use something like mysqldump or one of the hotbackup tools (like xtrabackup). Even better, get a webhost that doesn't make you jump through hoops to get a backup of your own DB!!!
Anyway, that's all irrelevant. This thread has nothing to do with DB backups.
