The issue was, that phpmyadmin wasn't installed.

When I try to install mediawiki on my synology ds414j I receive an error message that there is something wrong with the username or password set on the previous install steps.

I didn't let anything empty or used special characters.

I am having the same issue on my new Synology 216j. But how do I install phpmyadmin, when I am in the middle of installing MediaWiki?

phpmyadmin is not needed, but you need to have username and password of a user with enough privileges to create a new database and new users (usually the user root), that you should specify during installation (there's an option where you can choose a different user for installing and for the normal database access)
