You need to run it from command line, terminal or shell depending on your system. They are basically the same thing though.

This is a total newbie question but how do you run the updateArticleCount.php?

Hi all,
I have mentioned this issue previously but as there was no response I shall have another attempt, this time being clearer and more succinct!
I have an issue with two wikis that I have merged in that the total no. of pages in the special:statistics page is being mis-reported, (please note I'm not talking about the 'legitimate content pages' number). Although all the page titles do seem to be present when I go to Special:Allpages.
I am concerned that if that figure is being read directly from a table, that there may be data integrity issues - can I trust this combined wiki enough to make it live and operational? Or is it possible that the figure for total number of articles has simply become 'stuck' somehow?
After I ran rebuildall.php all the statistics remained fixed at the values they were at before I appended the second wiki, although after I ran updateArticleCount.php, the figure for legitimate content page then doubled, although not the figure for total no. of pages...
Is this normal?
Thanks for any assistance.
Regards, Charles.
