I don't really know much about importing into Wikia.

Have you verified you can reimport the dump into the mediawiki site you dumped it off of to verify it is a valid file?

Also, Wikia runs on a heavily modified mw 1.19, is yours from a newer version?

I'd suggest checking out https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:DumpBackup.php to create the dump, rather than using PHPmyadmin, as it will probs put it into the style it wants the dump to be in.
