Ran into a weird dump problem yesterday, which has me wondering if
there's a problem with my artificially created xml for upload.
Here's what happens. I have a script that builds wiki pages from an
external source and embeds them in xml for upload via importDump.
The script can be toggled to either generate a single page or a bunch
of them. The same script failed to load some pages that load just
fine if you specify them individually, but ImportDump.php does NOT
crash during the import.
I suspect that there is something wrong with the upstream items, but
I can't find it. The Brown Univ XML validator complains about the
following:
line 3, ecoliwiki20070730123135.xml:
error (1102): tag uses GI for an undeclared element: mediawiki
line 166616, ecoliwiki20070730123135.xml:
error (1012): reference to undeclared entity:
line 166616, ecoliwiki20070730123135.xml:
error (1003): entity (or its expansion) is invalid:
line 166616, ecoliwiki20070730123135.xml:
error (1012): reference to undeclared entity:
line 166616, ecoliwiki20070730123135.xml:
error (1003): entity (or its expansion) is invalid:
line 184234, ecoliwiki20070730123135.xml:
error (402): EOF encountered; no doctype declaration found: mediawiki
but I'm pretty sure these are all red herrings. So...is there a
validator out there I should be using? Is there another reason why a
record might be skipped? I know that if the timestamps are earlier
than the last version there's a problem, but these were all loading
into empty Category pages.
