I tried to install for the first time mediawiki, and I got the following message: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mediawiki tried to access the database via wfGetDB().

Are you using Postgres? Mysql? Sqlite? For other devs maybe looking at this: Looks like a change in ParserOptions causes this to load from the RequestContext user (which doesn't exist in the installer!). Although it's a similar bug, it's *not* the same as bug 28172 per the stack trace.
The server's php has postgres, mysql and sqlite capabilities. I tried disabling postgres module from PHP and got the same error. The database that I will use is mysql but the error appears just entering the URL for installattion, it didn't even show up the first step. I have read the bug 28172 and it's similar but not the same (seems to be some steps ahead).
What strange!.... I tried few minutes ago again without changing anything using the same URL and the installation worked!
