The MySQL database engine is one of the most commonly-used database backends for MediaWiki. Since MySQL used to be the relational database management system used by the Wikimedia Foundation websites, it is well-supported in MediaWiki. Much of the advice for MySQL and for MariaDB apply to each other.
See Compatibility#Database for a list of supported versions.

Installation
[edit]- For further information, see Manual:Installing MediaWiki#Create a database
Basically, if MySQL is installed, the installation script can create a database for you. Just supply the script with your MySQL root password (by default blank).
 Warning: | Leaving the root password blank can seriously compromise the security of the MediaWiki installation. You should modify the password if you haven't already. |
Maintenance
[edit]Multiple maintenance scripts are included in the /maintenance/ directory of your MediaWiki installation.
Some of these scripts are provided to refresh parts of the database as one-time operations.
