Any details about your machine OS? But anyway mwdumper have not GUI
front-end yet, but works as command-line. So use shell or open your
command-line tool, write and execute command like
java -jar proper-path-to/mwdumper.jar --output=file:your-wiki-dump.sql
--format=sql:1.5 --progress=10000 your-wiki-dump.xml
Of course "proper-path-to", "/", "your-wiki-dump" are only
for example and
you must replace them with your really names/symbol. Next, you must have JRE
1.4 or preferable 1.5 installed in your OS. And remember, that the --output
argument must be before the --format argument if --format is used.
