hi Gabriel,

thanks for the instructions. this may probably sound noobish, but Im stuck
with the Wikidump extraction.

after cloning, I ran '$mvn clean install': all went well. I modified the
download.minimal.properties with
'base-dir=/home/thenet/Code/DBpedia/downloads/' and
'download=la:pages-articles.xml.bz2' (why the Latin dump? because it was
small in size, which is usually a good thing for the first test): '$ ../run
download config=download.minimal.properties' ran fine.

I changed the extraction.abstracts.properties to include
'base-dir=/home/thenet/Code/DBpedia/downloads/' and
'source=lawiki-20150310-pages-articles.xml.bz2' (the bz2 exists in the
base-dir/lawiki/20150310/ directory). on running '$../run extraction
extraction.abstracts.properties' I get:
'parsing /home/thenet/Code/DBpedia/downloads/wikipedias.csv
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
...
at
org.dbpedia.extraction.util.ConfigUtils$.parseLanguages(ConfigUtils.scala:83)
...'.

I guessed it had something to do with the languages parameter, so I tried
changing 'languages=10000-' to 'languages=la' in the extraction properties
file. wasnt much better. while trying the same with
extraction.default.properties I noticed that there is no 'extractor.la=...'
parameter, although going by this
<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/DeveloperDocumentation/Extractor> there are a few
extractors applicable for all languages. Im probably messing up a
parameter. I noticed that this question
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28318185/dbpedia-extraction-framewrok-failure-during-extraction-of-dbpedia-dump>
exists on StackOverflow, but its not been answered. Id like to fix it.

thank you.
Amitrajit.
