<p>thank you Michael for pointing out the further steps for
installing Joomla.</p>
<p>Now this might be off topic, but I can't set up the database
within the Joomla installer, it cannot connect to the localhost
database. I have the choice of MySQL, MySQLi and MySQL (PRO), none
of them are accepted.</p>
<p>I see in phpMyAdmin that the server type is MariaDB. Is this the
issue? I'm using the user «joomla» with the database «joomla».</p>
Thank you for the help and best regards
