http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki...ticles.xml.bz2

The above gives you the latest English wiki database as of 1st October 2012...However, its 8.7GB in size so you would be better served in downloading from the link above by lorenzo...

Oh and latest english dumps: http://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiki/latest/

To get this app running you need a "suitable '.evopediarc'" in /home/user

This is mine:
Code:
[General]
darkTheme=true
useExternalBrowser=true

[dump_de_2012-02-25]
data_directory=/home/user/MyDocs/evodic/wikipedia_de_2012-02-25

In this data directory is the unpacked dump from http://dumpathome.evopedia.info/dumps/finished

It is possible. After downloading a dump you need to place a file named .evopediarc in /home/user with content like this:
[General]
darkTheme=true
useExternalBrowser=true

[dump_de_2012-02-25]
data_directory=/home/user/MyDocs/evodic/wikipedia_de_2012-02-25
I hope this helps.

You have to add in to the config file (located in /home/user/.evopediarc)

[Name of the dump]
data_directory=/home/user/MyDocs/path/to/the/folder

as you can see here


[General]
darkTheme=true
useExternalBrowser=true

[dump_de_2012-02-25]
data_directory=/home/user/MyDocs/evodic/wikipedia_de_2012-02-25

I thought I did all said above but I get nothing but this message very often, only some "search-matches" are displayed (in german):

"Netzwerkzugriff in der Anwendung gesperrt, Bilder blockiert"

I try to translate:

"access to network in the application denied, pictures blocked"

Also there seems to work no link in any article which is very sad.

What can i do to avoid this and get full functionality?
Having Wikipedia offline is very important for me...

Sorry for my english and perhaps too many words.

Thanks and regards and a happy new year 2015

Edit:
Meanwhile I found my mistake: the dump was not fully downloaded. First I used Opera, but I saw not really when the download was finished (I have almost no experience with torrents).
The second time I used "Transmission", where I really saw when the download was complete. Now it works great.
The only issue that I have is that Evopedia crashes when I tap on an Image, but I can live with that.

Many thanks to developers even if there is no further development.

Regards
