This tutorial assumes that PHP is already installed. If not, install it using:
apt-get install php7.0

the reason for this is when i start i get the php page that says “this is the main entrypiont for mediawiki” no php… problem solved by isntalling php

Make sure you set a proper ownership of MediaWiki files/directories using:

chown www-data:www-data -R /var/www/html/mediawiki

The official website mention to change the permission.
find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

But I still have the same error. Do you have any clue on what I can do?

This tutorial assumes that MySQL server is already installed. If not, install it using:

sudo apt-get install mysql
