[arch-general] MediaWiki installation, Creating sqlite database directory.

[Jordan Windsor]

Hello,
I lost my LocalSettings.php file so I'm going through the MediaWiki
installation again, I'm up to the "Connect to database" stage, I enter
"/srv/http/data" for the database directory and "testdb" as the name,
after I click continue it displays a error message saying it can't
create the directory because the parent directory isn't writable, I've
already tried setting all involved directories to 777 but it still
displays the same error message.
