Hi all, Forget about the "download data-dump problem" as I have download another data-dump file from a different pc.

And the output of "uname -a" is as follow (just in case if someone asked); Linux A70 2.6.38-11-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 29 19:05:14 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Best regards, Victor Mong On 07/09/2011, alicatux <[email protected]> wrote: >> I then proceed to down load the "data base dump" by pointing my >> browser to >> http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20091009/enwiki-20091009-pages-articles.xml.bz2 >> but it report with ERROR 403: Forbidden! > > I got a nice 404 and it's a two-years-ago dump , so it might be gone, > the latest one is on http://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20110803/ > >> "http://localhost/wikipedia/"; (I install the program >> under var/www/wikipedia) the browser display a "blank screen" > it should nor give you a blank screen, did you install php? > > > On 4 September 2011 01:42, Chung Kin Mong <[email protected]> wrote: >> I have followed the instruction from the website "igeek" and installed >> the "mediawiki" (the installation software say "successful" or >> something like that). >> >> When I go to "http://localhost/wikipedia/"; (I install the program >> under var/www/wikipedia) the browser display a "blank screen" and I >> suppose that is normal because I have not put any data there yet (I >> may be wrong here and please confirm my understanding). >> >> I then proceed to down load the "data base dump" by pointing my >> browser to >> http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20091009/enwiki-20091009-pages-articles.xml.bz2 >> but it report with ERROR 403: Forbidden! >> >> I recalled that in a previous attempt (i.e. about 20 minutes before I >> started the installation) I have been able to browse the page but at >> that time I don't know which file to download so I just quit. >> >> I would be much appreciated if someone tell me how to get hold of the >> "data base dump file", thanks in advance! >> >> Best regards, >> >> Victor Mong >> >> _______________________________________________ >> MediaWiki-l mailing list >> [email protected] >> https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l >> > > _______________________________________________ > MediaWiki-l mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l > _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
