7.0b9 - MySql Password Question
« on: January 04, 2006, 12:41:04 AM »
So with a fresh install of b9, my MySql root ended up with a password that matched my LDAP login.  The turba upgrade script as part of the mysql.init script was then failing.  I was also required to use the "-p" option to log into the database.  

Near as I can tell, the function esmith::util::LdapPassword() used both to generate .my.cnf and in the turba_upgrade script is returning the hash in both cases when it should be plain text.  

I manually changed them in both places to the plaintext password and it corrected the problem.  

I am not 100% clear on how this is suppose to work and will be happy to log a  bug if necessary, just wanted to confirm that it is one.

Thanks,
Jeff

Please report any peculiarities in the 7 beta series to the bug tracker. It saves developer time if we get them in the bug tracker rather than the forums and we're the most likely to be able to confirm/deny the bug.

Thanks,

Gordon
