Hello Mediawiki-l,
thanks for the answer. I updated the database today (after the
2003-12-08 update) like this:
cd ...htdocs/wikipedia
wget
http://download.wikipedia.org/archives/en/cur_table.sql.bz2
That'd be the December 3 dump off the old server. Try the new server,
which should be at
download.wikimedia.org (sigh...)
bzip2 -dc cur_table.sql.bz2 | mysql -u wikipedia
-pmypassword wikipedia
Was that right, that easy? Or do I have to delete the old cur
table first? It seems it wasn't really updated. It took about 8
minutes (athlon 2400+/512mb ddr) and there was no error message.
The first command in the dump deletes and recreates the cur table.
Nothing is printed on success; if there were a problem then it would
complain.
When I now call pages from my local wikipedia
mirror the most
recent
edits are still from november. I looked up a page that was
edited on
december 2 in wikipedia but on my local mirror only a version
from
november appeared. (In november I installed everything the first
time).
Also new entries are not accessable.
November when?
I only want to serve the printable page (via
mod_rewrite) so
nobody ever will use the "What links here", "Related Pages" or
something like that. I understood your answer, Brion, that way
that under this circumstances I don't have to do a "php
rebuildlinks.php". Or should I? Does it really take several
hours?
1 hour 45 minutes on a 2GHz Opteron with lots and lots of memory.
