Template:MW file/noslash Template:MW file/noslash The "setupStore.php" script is a maintenance script that sets up the storage backend currently selected in the "LocalSettings.php" file or the default data backend (store) if no other backend was selected. Semantic MediaWiki 3.2.0Released on an unknown date unknown versions of MediaWiki brought an improved client output to this maintenance script.1 Moreover this maintenance script now checks if the minimum requirements for the version of the selected data store is met by the respective server's environment.2

This maintenance script should not just be run when updating the Semantic MediaWiki software but also on a regular basis within a period of 90 days maximum to perform an optimization of the wiki's semantic data store. Thus best usage experience by increased performance is being assured. See also the note below on this page.

This maintenance script deprecated the former "SMW_setup.php" script starting with Semantic MediaWiki 1.9.2Released on an unknown date unknown versions of MediaWiki which was removed with the release of Semantic MediaWiki 3.0.0Released on an unknown date unknown versions of MediaWiki in October 2018. When upgrading to Semantic MediaWiki 3.0.0Released on an unknown date unknown versions of MediaWiki or later the migration to this script must be done.

Script specific parameters

Parameter	Description

--backend [backend]	Execute the operation for the storage backend of the given name. For instance "SMWSQLStore3" or "SMWSQLStore2".
--nochecks	When specified, no prompts are provided. Deletion will thus happen without the need to provide any confirmation.
--skip-optimize3	When specified the key distribution is not being analyzed, optimized and stored. Thus the internal query planner cannot determine the most efficient execution for queries.

Note

This maintenance script is by default performing a database optimization if not skipped with the --skip-optimize flag. If this was not done within the period of 90 days a maintenance alert will be added to the Semantic MediaWiki dashboard reminding of this task. The last database optimization run is recorded by this maintenance script by adding the last runs timestamp to the last_optimization_run information of the setup information file (".smw.json").4
