wikimedia box, they want to keep root access as restricted as
possible.
You could test it locally of course and submit something that works:)
Who is they? Brion? or who? People who handle things like OTRS are well trusted.
Anyway, database tasks require a postgres account with superuser privileges, which is independent of root access, and permissions for the postgres directories (e.g. config files) would help.
Or perhaps you don't need any help?
