This can be done with `$wgScribuntoEngineConf['luastandalone']['luaPath'] = '/usr/bin/lua5.1';` + - In future, we may symlink the preinstalled Lua to the system one. +- [MediaWiki:Manual:$wgShowExceptionDetails](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgShowExceptionDetails) for if error details are hidden and you need to show them.
