I recently switched to an MMP for some project we depend on heavily (http://toolserver.org/~citegen/ - citation template generator) and I found out not everything works like on a normal account. For example, our webserver interface does not set $HOME in the environment, so for each project I might need to hardcode its base directory: https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/TS-1341 Webserver FastCGI interface does not set $HOME Probably something like __FILE__ from PHP should be used but the point was to migrate a working tool and work on refactoring together later. //Saper _______________________________________________ Toolserver-l mailing list ([email protected]) https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/toolserver-l Posting guidelines for this list: https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Mailing_list_etiquette
