Hello,

After configuring my mediawiki it works just fine, but after i make any changes in my localsettings.php file, even changing logo png i get following message:

Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.

Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.

(Cannot access the database)

only action that helps is deleting localsettings.php and going through configuration all over again which is completely not a solution.

i have latest mediawiki version, mysql is running, httpd is running, all required ports are free and listening, firewall is disabled and i can connect to database in terminal as root

thanks in advance

How are you editing your LocalSettings.php? It looks like you are introducing problems when you do that.
