[Koha] Web Installer Authentication

Hi Frederic,

DB priviledges was my guess too, but the configured dbuser can create  
tables, see below. No matter what I enter into the authentication  
form, I don't receive a message about invalid credentials, and the log  
entry stays the same for invalid credentials.

from /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml:
<config>
  <db_scheme>mysql</db_scheme>
  <database>koha</database>
  <hostname>localhost</hostname>
  <port>3306</port>
  <user>kohaadmin</user>
  <pass>****</pass>
   ....
</config>


accessing with above credentials and creating a table works fine:

grsa at grsa-koha3:/$ mysql -ukohaadmin -hlocalhost -p**** -Dkoha
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 170
Server version: 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.3 (Ubuntu)

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input  
statement.

mysql> create table test (name char(50));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> select * from test;
Empty set (0.00 sec)

mysql> drop table test;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql>

Thanks,

Sabine
