That wont work (the path is missing) - use the following instead:

require_once(DOKU_CONF.'mysql.conf.php');


AH, that works much better. :) I now see the login screen plain as day.
However, when I try to log in, credentials don't work. "Username/password not found." I have tried two cases: 

1. username and password both set to 'al' directly in MySQL
2. username set to 'al' and password left blank, both directly in MySQL

Neither work. I have forwardClearPass set to 1, just for proof of concept.
It would be helpful for some tips on how to investigate this, instead of just getting the answer... That way I can try to figure out the answer to the next question myself! :)
For example, once the login screen appears, how to tell if it's authenticating against MySQL or against the plain DW users.auth.php file?
