release v3.12.1.1
2016-12-05 02:03:42 +00:00
Due to changes in the English Wikipedia Category system, XOWA needed to import a lot more data. Unfortunately, this caused the English Wikipedia import to stall on older machines. I was unable to reproduce it on my current machine (i7 CPU on either SSD or HDD), but was able to reproduce it on my laptop (Core Duo with HDD).

<p>
release v3.12.1.1
2016-12-05 02:03:42 +00:00
This issue was resolved by adding a new SQL index during the category import. The total time will still be noticeably longer (from 2 hours to 5 hours), but it should complete in the end.

release v3.12.1.1
2016-12-05 02:03:42 +00:00
There were a number of minor fixes around the 2016-11 Russian wikis.
</p>
<p>
The most significant one was an issue with Wikidata and missing infobox images. For more detail, you can look at <a href="https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2016-November/010019.html" rel="nofollow" class="external free">https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikidata/2016-November/010019.html</a> . This was fixed for any Russian Wiki imported through Import Online or Import Offline. However, Russian wikis downloaded through Download Central will still be missing images, until the next time I rebuild them.
