I run a multi-languages Wiki setup with several subdomains (like de.mywiki.org, en.mywiki.org, etc.) which all use independent databases. For shared images I also use a pool.mywiki.org with its own database.
When I want to update my different wikis, I expected this to work:
$ cd /var/www/mydomain/w/de/maintenance
$ php update.php --conf ../LocalSettings.php
This indeed updates "a" database, but afterwards I can no longer see my German wiki articles, but the de.mywiki.org site seems to use the pool.mywiki.org database instead, as if I had entered:
$ cd /var/www/mydomain/w/pool/maintenance
$ php update.php --conf ../LocalSettings.php
I wonder what I am doing wrong here.
