I'm trying to set up a localhost-only wiki for development which will not be
web-facing.
I've been following here [1] and also [2], and have got as far as 'Configure
MediaWiki', and navigating to
http://localhost and there I'm stuck.
The browser shows -
╭────
│MediaWiki 1.30.0
│
│LocalSettings.php not found.
│
│Please set up the wiki first.
╰────
But every time that I click on 'set up the wiki' it takes me to
'http://localhost/mw-config/index.php' and an "Error code 500".
This is where I've installed mediawiki - /var/www/html/mediawiki
Please someone, tell me where I'm going wrong and get me back working properly again.
Thanks
Sharon.
