@Addshore I'm confused by your link (https://doc.wikimedia.org/Wikibase/master/php/md_docs_topics_options.html#conceptBaseUri); so if I want to change the URIs from the default http://wikibase.svc/entity/Q39 to localhost:8181/entity/Q39, I do this by adding something to LocalSettings.php?

The conceptBaseUri says it is constructed from $wgServer by default, the value this has upon initialization is $wgServer = WebRequest::detectServer(); so based on the provided documentation I should just set it as $wgServer = "localhost:8181"?

Thank you!

UPDATE #1: Deleted everything to start from scratch for the fourth (or fifth?) time. I followed all of the steps and changed $wgServer = "localhost:8181" for loading in data. This actually made it so localhost:8181 stopped working in the browser, so this is (probably) not the solution.

Updater still isn't working, same stack as I posted above.

UPDATE #2: I've totally given up on this; this is an absolute nightmare just to get data from one instance to another and it seems nearly impossible to navigate. If you're in this situation, I'd just recommend giving up and either adding in everything manually or picking a different database system.
