AFAIK if you only have ftp access you can rename your LocalSettings.php,
install your wiki once again and move back LocalSettings.php

Hi,
Lots of extensions require me to issue a shell command:
php maintenance/update.php
...but I don't have shell access to my mediawiki installation; I only
have FTP access.
So far I haven't needed to deploy any extensions that required this,
but now I am wanting to deploy several extensions that have this
requirement in their installation procedure.
How do people typically deal with this?
Why does this script need to be run from the shell and not from an
administrative UI?
Thanks.
