This VM is created for 2 reasons: 1. Very little initial setup work required to make MediaWiki live, within minutes. 2. This system should keep running for Years, without requiring Updates / Breakages.
If you are new to Virtual Machines, then please watch Video below ( taken from my other project. just replace td with mw wherever mentioned )
After starting this VM, please login to its administration panel with:
Website Address: https://mw.local/
( Accept Any Warnings Due to Usage of Self-Signed https Certificates )
Admin Username: admin
Admin Password: change_this
from any PC on your Local Network.
Explore all the Left Side Menu Options & User Guide, before starting any page entry. Some Demo Page Data is also loaded for info sake. Feel free to clear them, as required.
Once setup & running, please ensure that a Backup of system, is taken regularly, to avoid any issues.
These are covered in the video. Google Search helps in finding more about MediaWiki.
Features
- Please visit https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki for the complete list of features and documentation

- A small correction in the Video below: Choose a LAN Card Network Adapter Connection in Virtualbox ( Not Wifi ), after connecting your PC to your Router / Switch, with a LAN Cable. If the Router / Switch has a DHCP Server enabled inside, then the Virtual Machine, will be able to obtain an IP Address from it, quickly.
