Hi there,
I'd like to extend an existing wiki (MW1.16) with LiquidThreads. In order to modify the db I have to run the maintenance/update.php. But I just can't get that script running, using phpshell since I don't have shell access (shared hosting): always giving me 504 time out error. "unset REQUEST_METHOD", as described in the manual, doesn't help either.
The same problem of course occurs when I try to upgrade the whole wiki. That problem is solved by simply rerunning the installer. But this solution doesn't work in case of extensions that extend the database.
So, dear community: Is there any solution for this? Help appreciated.

If you have phpMyAdmin, you can use it to run the queries that are in lqt.sql (if you have a database prefix, make sure you replace "/*$wgDBprefix*/" with it).

Thanks for your help. I could indeed modify the database by using phpMyAdmin.
Problem now is that while LiquidThreads works fine in the main mediawiki-installation, the symlinked installations don't: I am unable to save anything there; the saving-wheel appears and keeps on spinning, whereas the browser reports 'done'. (Different db-prefixes are taken into account.)
Any idea?
I'd still appreciate help on this issue.

Maybe it is really a timeout in the sense that updating liqudthreads take a long time? In such case you could wourk around that by adding set_time_limit(0);
