Of course I tried that, but didn't help.
Some further research showed up:

You need to copy LocalSettings.php to AdminSettings.php and add 
$wgDBadminuser+$wgDBadminpassword containing your DB's root

BTW: I'm a little bit confused why it needs root privileges to 
add / change some tables. Isn't the database already owned by the
wiki's user ? ... strange ...
