Thread:Project:Support desk/Can't contact the database server: Access denied for user 'wikiuser'@'localhost' (using password: NO) (localhost))/reply (6)

Hi,

I also get:

(Can't contact the database server: Access denied for user 'wikiuser'@'localhost' (using password: NO) (localhost))

The reason is that the LocalSettings.php is not honored.

I am on a debian wheezy and my version of mediawiki is: 1:1.19.18+dfsg-0+deb7u1

If I enter the database access information into the /usr/share/mediawiki/includes/DefaultSettings.php file things are working at least for the database connection. Then the next things starts failing.
