Description Aude 2013-11-05 14:43:25 UTC 
If Wikibase is in a non-standard location (e.g. another level deep in the extensions folder) then all the maintenance scripts (e.g change dispatcher) fail.

If MW_INSTALL_PATH environment variable is set, then this is not an issue.  

Fortunately, WMF setup defines MW_INSTALL_PATH so the scripts still work, but we shouldn't rely on that completely.

Comment 2 Gerrit Notification Bot 2013-11-07 10:12:37 UTC 
Change 93711 abandoned by Aude:
Check Wikidata build install path for dispatchChanges script

Reason:
prefer https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/93737/ over doing things this way

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/93711
Comment 3 Aude 2013-11-12 15:16:39 UTC 
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/93737/ is merged.  It provides a way to run scripts for extensions and stuff in non-standard locations.

One could also set the MW_INSTALL_PATH environment variable.  WMF sets MW_INSTALL_PATH (dynamically) and uses their own wrapper for scripts, so no problem. :)
