Question

I am install MediaWiki 1.26.0 and facing this error.

Install Setting up database... done Creating tables...

A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.

Query:

Function: DatabaseBase::sourceFile( /var/www/html/mw/maintenance/tables.sql )
Error: 1031 Table storage engine for 'wkuser' doesn't have this option (localhost)

Any clue?

And I could get it installed properly.
