Need a wiki

[Shango Oluwa]

Given your list of requirements, plus your preference for a MySQL
backend - I highly recommend Mambo.

http://mamboserver.com/

Mambo is not strictly a wiki but a content management system, so it is
configurable to the task of acting wiki. Easy to learn. quick to set-up.
Our organisation was introduced to Mambo by Don da Silva of
http://blink.org.uk who says Mambo allows developers to "punching above
their weight"! ... I agree: boxing clever!

Give it a try.
