#12671 assigned enhancement

Installer page doesn't check if MySQL tables were created successfully

Reported by: thedotproduct Owned by:
Priority: normal Milestone: Future Release
Component: Upgrade/Install Version: 2.9.2
Severity: normal Keywords: needs-patch mysql permissions gsoc
Cc: westi

Description

When running the web-based setup script - My Mysql user didn't have create permissions so no tables were created but the message (underneath all the MySQL errors) said setup was successful.

I think it would be worth doing a check for no MySQL errors before proclaiming the installation a success.

Good idea. I think it should run with $wpdb->show_errors on.

  • Milestone changed from 3.0 to Future Release
  • Type changed from defect (bug) to enhancement

This one came in a little late for 3.0. Patches welcome :)

It might also be nice if possible to have a generic "capability" check for the mysql permissions that the db user has.

So that the core code / plugin can check to see if the db user has be granted x or y before it tries to do something.
