Thread:Project:Support desk/How do I access Maintenance scripts?/reply

Hi Emilio,

I guess you are trying to access the maintenance scripts with your webbrowser? That is not possible. :-)

Do you have Shell access on your server? Or with other words: Can you access the command line on your server? Black window with just some lines of white text? That is what you need.

Then you can use the commandline to navigate to the folder maintenance/ ("cd" command) and execute one of the maintenance scripts (with "php"). E.g.

cd wiki/maintenance/ php update.php
