[Mediawiki-l] backup SQL database

[Morten Blaabjerg]

I had the same problem - You will most likely need to split up the SQL into 
smaller packages to execute with PHPMyAdmin.
I wish there were an option to make the database dump in PHPMyAdmin 
automatically do this, but so far haven't heard of any. Anyone who knows of 
a workaround?

Best wishes,
Morten :-)
