Description

Most of the files have been uploaded, but there remain about 30 that are larger than ca. 150 MB that generate errors when attempting an upload with Pywikibot. They either require several more attempts or to be uploaded manually – it looks like the Upload Wizard does not trigger similar problems.

Event Timeline

A typical error looks like this:

WARNING: API error internal_api_error_DBQueryError: [XKHP9wpAEMQAACSm8CcAAABS] Caught exception of type Wikimedia\Rdbms\DBQueryError

Note – it's _probably_ not a problem with the files themselves, as I've managed to upload files that had generated an error at an earlier attempt.

Uploading them via the Upload Wizard turned out to work well, the last few large (~1GB each) files are being uploaded this morning and should be done soon.
