Hi all,
I've found the solution to my question myself:
after cloning the server I just had to add a new database via phpMyAdmin, Re-run
the installer and change the corresponding entries in LocalSettings.php. :-)
Greetings Katharina
Another option would have been to drop the old database. But it isn't
bad idea to have the clone with a different db name, even if you're not
going for now to merge them. You may still want to do it to remove the
old contents that are in the clone (more free space, info from the old
wiki can't be fetched if the new VM is compromised, no option to confuse
the VMs using the clone thinking it's the original).
