As I recall, dumps.wikimedia.org has a relatively low concurrency limit. Something like 2 or 4 simultaneous downloads. After that, all further connections give a 403 error until earlier connections finish. If you are downloading a number of dump files, it is pretty easy to try to open more downloads at the same time than the limit will allow. I suspect that is what happened here. -Robert Rohde _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
