Thread:Project:Support desk/Bitnami + database in Mediawiki/reply

If MediaWiki is working correctly, the database will be there. Check the LocalSettings.php file in the root folder of your MediaWiki installation for the variables $wgDBtype and $wgDBuser and $wgDBpassword. If you use MySQL (to be set in $wgDBtype), then log into phpmyadmin using the username and password of $wgDBuser and $wgDBpassword and you should see the database.

However, in order to install an extension like ApprovedRevs, it should not be necessary to manipulate the database directly. Instead, run the MediaWiki updater: Either via the webbrowser or (preferredly) from the shell. See here for more information: Manual:Upgrading
