mmap.error: [Errno 12] Cannot allocate memory when starting to compile wiki dictionary

It's probably not too hard to hack compiler.py to pick up and continue, but this is not something that works out of the box. Are you trying to do this on a 32-bit machine, by any chance? If so, this is not going to work, compiler uses memory mapped files and 32-bit doesn't provide enough address space for something as big as dewiki.

I am currently on a 64-bit machine, but I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit. I also have a 32-bit machine, unfortunately no Ubuntu installed at the moment. Could my problem be related to insufficient disk space?

Hit the wrong button...

I don't think this is related to disk space. The fact that actual hardware is 64-bit doesn't matter - if OS is 32-bit it is 32-bit for all intents and purposes. Article store is >3G. While technically 32-bit allows to address 4G, finding >3G of continuous address space (which is what mmap does) is a tough proposition. To compile something like dewiki aardc needs 64-bit, sorry.
