Right thanks,,, I'm wondering I was looking at the http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Importdocumentation
php importDump.php --conf LocalSettings.php dumpfile.xml.gz wikidb For the this command where you import with the localSetting.php. It doesn't really say what adding the Localsettings file does in the documentation. Does this replace the LocalSettings.php file? It seems like running a statement like that might forgo the need to run the install.php. Does it? Thanks On Tue, Sep 17, 2013 at 4:50 PM, OQ <[email protected]> wrote: > The bash error gives it away.
