Hi John
dumpBackup isn't a full wiki backup.
Sounds like script is timing out. Did you look at the data with an xml tool to see if all
articles are in the file. Could be a time out on upload too. Most host have a max
execution time.
Just use a command line MySQL dump of the database on your local. Then a command line SQL
restore on the host. Makes backups and moving db easy.
If you don't have a command line there are other methods to run a full backup and move
db. XCloner V3.3 stand alone will do website files and db or one or the other.

Ive used this to dump what I hoped would be a complete
backup of my
local hosted mediawiki. Th purpose of which was to import the .xml file
to a new working server. The script to import it did the job. however
the dumped.xml file did not contain all the articles. It uploaded 476 of
a site that contains 5391 articles. Just wondering why. Ive done it 3
times with no different results.
