I think I see what you mean: I can keep the configuration file in the MediaWiki directory and not in /etc as the Phabricator entry suggested.

All right, what directory do I "clone" jobrunner into, and how often should I set up cron to run it?

You will not need root access, but you will need shell access to run the
job runner service.  In theory you should be able to just put runJobs in
cron, the job runner will just run things sooner and with more parallelism
(if necessary).

That sounds like something a root-access admin needs to install. I've
asked quite enough favors of my Web hosts without adding another one. Are
you sure this is the only way to get jobs run when setting #wgJobRunRate to
zero? Why shouldn't I set up a cron job to run every hour on the hour?

Both the redisJobChronService, which handles delayed jobs, and the
redisJobRunnerService, which handles jobs ready to run need to be used.

What's this instruction all about, on the page:


https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family#Multiple_wikis_sharing_common_resources

They're telling me to set $wgJobRunRate to zero. But they don't say
whether it should stay that way permanently. Now if it does, that means
one
of us has to get into the Secure Shell, cd to maintenance, and execute
php
runJobs.php at least once every twenty-four hours. Or more frequently.

To whomever wrote that part of the manual (this is about installing a
family of wikis sharing media resources): are you sure you want to tell
wikifamily admins to do that? Or to set up a big cron job to execute a
bash
script? If so, how often would you recommend that, and at what time (say,
with reference to UTC or to the most likely anticipated geographical
cluster of users)?
