Revision as of 03:18, 18 August 2021 by Benkoo (talk | contribs) (→Administrator's name and password)
The configuration file should have the following entries:
## Database settings
$wgDBtype = "mysql";
$wgDBserver = "database";
$wgDBname = "my_wiki";
$wgDBuser = "wikiuser";
$wgDBpassword = "example";
Important parameters
There are two important parameter that must be defined, database name and the administrators password.
Database name in Docker's Default Network
Due to PKC is running in docker, the value for $wgDBserver is often suggested to be localhost, and in the docker-compose.yml file for PKC, it is set to be database already.
Administrator's name and password
For the purpose of learning how to set up PKC, the administrator is set to be:
Administrator user name:adminPassword:YOUR PREFERED KEY PHRASE
You may change the password using MediaWiki's web-based interface after you log-in as the user:admin. The interface is in the Special:Preferences page.
