           Summary: Various installer.pl fixes
           Product: Koha
           Version: CVS
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Installation
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
         QAContact: address@hidden


This is essentially a repost of Bug #91 with the directory fixes removed:

(1) There are two almost identical rootness checks near the beginning. We just
need one.

(2) In some mkdir calls, the arguments are reversed.

(3) It was not minding the permissions of /etc/koha.conf when the file is being
created; this is fixed by some umask()ing

(4) Aborting the installation leaves an invalid /etc/koha.conf; rerunning
installer.pl won't work, because it will think Koha is already (successfully)
installed.

(5) If MySQL is not installed in the usual places, the directory used silently
defaults to /usr, which is almost guaranteed to be wrong; but the admin doesn't
know the installer made a silent decision, and has no chance to override it

(6) The MySQL password is not quoted; passwords can contain whitespace and/or
double quotes etc.
