Description Dan Jacobson 2006-12-29 03:04:12 UTC

commandLine.inc has
  $IP = realpath( dirname( $self ) . '/..' );
which perhaps(?) causes the maintenance scripts to always use realpath
when looking for LocalSettings.php, whereas entering via index.php,
one would be following symlinks, if any, to a possibly different
LocalSettings.php! Yes, then one would need Setup.php etc. But still,
what a surprise. No more symlinks for me.
