[Freedombox-discuss] Error installing mediawiki

[permondes - sagen]

I am trying again to install mediawiki in Plinth 0.30 and come again to
the error message  "No such file or
directory: \'/var/lib/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php\'\n'), which I
already had with Plinth 0.27 in March:

That is actually a broken link:
> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root     root      32 Apr 13 06:26 LocalSettings.php ->
> /etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php

Would it be sufficient to place that file in that directory? Where
could I get that file from? It is probably pre-generated by Plinth,
right?

The last bit in /var/log/dpkg.log is:

And according to README.Debian, I have to go through the installer, so
which directory is designed for the sqlite DB? It is not
*/var/lib/mediawiki/mywiki* as it gives a permission error.

I am on an OLimex Lime. 

Has anyone successfully gone through this torture?
