Many thanks for the report 👍

Notes:
I was unable to replicate issue with current dev branch. php-mysql is installed as a pre-req.

I guess it was due to: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/2217#issuecomment-435599804, fixed with: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/pull/2214/files#diff-d92a6ee04e02fd2a2dc23d5bec3e6a98R3422

• But that occurred only, if PHP was already installed previously with another database (e.g. SQLite) and then MySQL on a separate install run.
• So should not have appeared on a fresh install with selecting Wordpress (+others) all together.

Yeah, I installed gitea binary with sqlite set up, not sure it is the reason
