I have to move a mediawiki site that has a
database of approx 4.1GB. It
is somthing I have done before and I usually just use the command line
syntax to do it. However I have tried 3 times to export it and the files
are always either incomplete due to server (Mysql) disconnect. I finally
did get one that seemed to complete OK but then I tried several times to
import it into the new server and likewise got server disconnect errors. I
am aware that there are a multitude of possibilities, so what I'm asking
here is for any tips on moving databases of this size or larger. I'm
beginning to wonder if Mysql is the way to go here.
Thanks!
