Detailed Description

Sets up the storage backend currently selected in LocalSettings.php (or the default MySQL store if no other store was selected).

This is equivalent to clicking the respective button on the page Special:SMWAdmin. However, the latter may timeout if the setup involves migrating a lot of existing data.

Note: if SMW is not installed in its standard path under ./extensions then the MW_INSTALL_PATH environment variable must be set. See README in the maintenance directory.

Note: For people still using MediaWiki 1.16.x, there is the SMW_setup_1.16.php script.

Usage: php SMW_refreshData.php [options...]

-password Password for user account NOTE: specifying user credentials in a command line call will usually store them within the shell history file. For security, provide credentials in Adminssetings.php instead and ensure that your text editor does not create world-readable backup copies when modifying this file.

--delete Delete all SMW data, uninstall the selected storage backend. This is useful when moving to a new storage engine, and in the rare case of unsinstalling SMW. Deleted data can be recreated using this script (setup) and SMW_refreshData.php but this may take some time.
