[Mediawiki-l] Problem with importImages.php

[Sam.Sexton at thomsonreuters.com]

Hmm - I  sent this ti the list on the 3rd, but didn't get a reply -
hardly surprising, as I now can't see it in the archive! Trying again
...

Hi - I have recently migrated our wiki to a new host and version
(1.13.0). That is working fine, but I wanted to reimport all the images
into my dev system as that will act as a backup system as well. However,
although the majority of images are imported correctly, some are just
reported as "failed". I have tried uploading one of these manually and
it worked fine. The image didn't exist in the image dir and wasn't shown
in the image db table prior to the manual upload.
 
The only clue I have found was in a truss of the import:
 
6203: write(5, "07\0\0\003 C O M M I T", 11)    = 11
6203: read(5, "07\0\001\0\0\002\0\0\0", 16384)  = 11
6203: time()            = 1243847745
6203: resolvepath("/home/sam.sexton/TGSTWiki/includes/WikiError.php",
"/home/sam.sexton/TGSTWiki/includes/WikiError.php", 10
24) = 48
6203: open("/home/sam.sexton/TGSTWiki/includes/WikiError.php", O_RDONLY)
= 6
6203: fstat(6, 0x01219180)        = 0
6203:     d=0x05240459 i=1527070 m=0100644 l=1  u=324   g=666   sz=3337
6203:   at = Jun  1 07:57:37 GMT 2009  [ 1243843057 ]
6203:   mt = Nov 21 15:46:40 GMT 2008  [ 1227282400 ]
6203:   ct = Mar  6 15:42:59 GMT 2009  [ 1236354179 ]
6203:     bsz=8192  blks=8     fs=nfs
6203: read(6, " < ? p h p\n / * *\n   *".., 8192) = 3337
6203: read(6, 0x015DD8B8, 8192)     = 0
6203: read(6, 0x015DD8B8, 8192)     = 0
6203: close(6)          = 0
6203: write(1, " f a i l e d .\n", 8)     = 8
 
so this could be a database issue, but I'm not sure where to go next ...
any clues would be appreciated.
