	"error": {
		"code": "readapidenied",
		"info": "You need read permission to use this module",
		"docref": "See https://fbs01/MethodenWiki/api.php for API usage"
	}
}

What if you set $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = true; ?

Maybe you're using Extension:LockDown ? (would be a dupe of T148582 in that case)
