MWLBFactory tries to determine the current user's name using posix_getpwuid(). This will however fail if the current user has no name, which is the case when running in our standard docker environment. This would cause an error message something like this:
Notice: Trying to access array offset on value of type bool in /var/www/html/w/includes/db/MWLBFactory.php on line 401
