Sorry, I fat fingered the email address and posted to the wrong list. Here's the results of my testing.

Hi Rob,

I completed running mwdumper with the following command last night. It took several hours to complete. I aborted the previous importDump.php in order to run this test for you. The wiki they were run against was en.wikigadugi.org. The database name is endb.

[root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]# java -jar mwdumper.jar --format=sql:1.5 /wikidump/dump/enwiki-GFDL-20070206-pages-articles.xml | mysql -u root -p endb Enter password: [root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]# [root@gadugi archive]#

The mwdumper ran to completion through almost 4 million articles then exited. I then applied the command you had specified. Same result, mwdumper does not work as was previously reported on other blogs. I am running Fedora Core 5 on wikigadugi. Configuration has already been provided in previous posts. Here is the output from applying the UPDATE command via mysql. [root@gadugi /]# [root@gadugi /]# mysql -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 30734 to server version: 5.0.18

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql> use endb Reading table information for completion of table and column names You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A

Database changed mysql> UPDATE page SET page_touched = 20070226080700 -> ; Query OK, 61932 rows affected (2.72 sec) Rows matched: 61932 Changed: 61932 Warnings: 0

mysql> mysql> mysql>

The server is at http://en.wikigadugi.org and as you can see if you visit the site, mwdumper fails to update any of the articles to the database (other than filling the mysql Innodb file with a lot of wasted space).
