===Troubleshooting===
'''Note:''' With MySQL 8, there is some possibility that it will default to the wrong authentication method.

*If Mediawiki has problems connecting & gives you "'''The server requested authentication method unknown to the client.'''" as part of the error message, sign back into MySQL & adjust the user being assigned in the wiki install:
**<code>sudo mysql -u root -p</code>
**<code>ALTER USER 'someone'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';</code>
