I tried to do a strait forward example of using the MediaWiki connector. So started on play-with-docker.com with a MediaWiki. I used the following docker-compose.yml provided on https://hub.docker.com/_/mediawiki:
version: '3'
services:
mediawiki:
image: mediawiki
restart: always
ports:
- 8080:80
links:
- database
volumes:
- images:/var/www/html/images
# After initial setup, download LocalSettings.php to the same directory as
# this yaml and uncomment the following line and use compose to restart
# the mediawiki service
- ./LocalSettings.php:/var/www/html/LocalSettings.php
# This key also defines the name of the database host used during setup instead of the default "localhost"
database:
image: mariadb
restart: always
environment:
# @see https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/source/mediawiki/browse/master/includes/DefaultSettings.php
MYSQL_DATABASE: my_wiki
MYSQL_USER: wikiuser
MYSQL_PASSWORD: example
MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD: 'yes'
volumes:
- db:/var/lib/mysql
volumes:
images:
db:
Following the setup routine resulted in the following LocalSettings.php:
<?php

# Enabled skins.

wfLoadSkin( 'MonoBook' );
wfLoadSkin( 'Timeless' );
wfLoadSkin( 'Vector' );
# End of automatically generated settings.
# Add more configuration options below.
The wiki itself is working like expected.
But not the MediaWiki connector:
I tried the credentials several times. What's going wrong here? What I'm missing?
Thanks in advance.
