Thread:Project:Support desk/Problems importing/reply (5)

I installed a MediaWiki on my PC (personal wiki). I noticed that this problem happened if I attempted to import a large file and the system timed out. So first I got this message: "Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\EasyPHP\www\wiki\includes\db\DatabaseMysqli.php on line 39".

Then each subsequent attempt of importing returned the message "Import failed: Expected tag, got". The trick was to restart the server after the time out. Which sorted out the "Import failed" message EVERY TIME.
