*Proven on Mint 20 ... (Gets MySQL 8.0)
*Proven on SparkyLinux 5.11 ... (You'll have to [https://tecadmin.net/install-mysql-server-on-debian9-stretch/ fix the missing MySQL] thing & install vim first)

===Install the LAMP Stack===

[[WebServer - Basic LAMP Stack Install|Basic LAMP Stack Install]]

===Install MediaWiki===

*<code>wget <nowiki>https://releases.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.34/mediawiki-1.34.1.tar.gz</nowiki></code>
*<code>tar -xvzf mediawiki-*.tar.gz</code>
*<code>sudo mkdir /var/www/html/wiki</code>
*<code>sudo mkdir /var/www/html/labnotes</code>
*<code>sudo cp -r mediawiki-*/* /var/www/html/wiki</code>
*<code>sudo cp -r mediawiki-*/* /var/www/html/labnotes</code>
*<code>sudo mysql -u root -p</code>

CREATE DATABASE my_wiki;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON my_wiki.* TO 'someone'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
CREATE DATABASE my_notes;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON my_notes.* TO 'someone'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;

*<code>sudo vim /etc/php/7.2/apache2/php.ini</code>
**(this may be in a slightly different location depending on version of php installed...)
**increase <code>upload_max_filesize</code> to 200M
*Fix upload directories:
**<code>sudo chmod -R ugo+rwX /var/www/html/wiki/images</code>
**<code>sudo chmod -R ugo+rwX /var/www/html/labnotes/images</code>

Browse to http://ServerAddress/wiki & follow the steps presented.

Set it as Authorised editors only.

Set as Private Wiki

===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>
