Since you currently use Bitcoin Core 0.8.6 (older than 0.15.0), you'll see Bitcoin Core convert it's chainstate database which take few minutes to half an hour. I mention it so you won't think something is broken.

The first time you run version 0.15.0, your chainstate database will be converted to a new format, which will take anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour, depending on the speed of your machine.

Dumpwallet was introduced in 0.9.0. You'd have to update your client to do so. If your goal is to find the keys, then you can probably make a backup and upgrade your client.

Seems like the old 0.8.6 version does not have a dumpwallet command on the console. So, as far as I can tell, the only way to do it would be using the dumpprivkey command, one address at a time Undecided

I guess that this is one of the reasons why scripts like PyWallet were originally created, so you could simply dump the whole wallet at once.
