[Wikitech-l] Error 1064 when importing xml file into mysql with mwdumper

Hello,

I tried to load the wikipedia 20051105 data dump into my mysql database with an installation of media wiki 5.1 and mysql 4.0.26

I used the command

56:~/Desktop mgreiner$ nohup java -server -jar mwdumper.jar --format=sql:1.5 20051105_pages_full.xml.bz2 | mysql wikidb &

and received the following error:

56:~/Desktop mgreiner$ ERROR 1064 at line 82: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '''''Anarchism''' is a generic term describing various rev

I suspect that it has something to do with the version of mysql. What version is recommended for installing wikipedia?

I hope that somebody can help me.
