They use a development database not acceptable for use in production. Place a sqlite database in an unsafe location a real wiki should never place it in. And use predictable default logins for the initial administrator user. + +Running maintenance/dev/install.sh will download and install a local copy of php 5.6, install a sqlite powered instance of MW for development, and then start up a local webserver to view the wiki. + +After installation you can bring the webserver back up at any time you want with maintenance/dev/start.sh |
