I always use the first form (php maintenance/xxx) for all scripts, and haven't had one break yet. update.php doesn't access the filesystem anyway, except to get includes, and those are always loaded in a working dir-independent way. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Now I see more people suggesting Jan's version of the command. Is it the intent of Mediawiki developers to ensure that _all_ scripts should run from any directory if the path to the script is provided as part of the argument to php?
