Hi all,
I tried to import the entire english wikipedia dump(some 15 gigs) in to mediawiki1.4. The entire process took 2 days and then, it seems nothing happened ! I got an error like the following in between somewhere.
ERROR 1062 (23000) at line 28: Duplicate entry '1' for key 1
But the import was not aborted. So I let it continue.
I used the follwoing command for the import :
java -Xmx512m -server -jar mwdumper.jar --format=sql:1.4 pages_full.xml.bz2 | mysql -u root -p wikidb
where wikidb is the database name.
I think people had similar problems as is evident here

But then what went wrong. Or what needs to be done to make it work ?
