[Phpgroupware-users] SECURITY ISSUE: Fatal Error: It appears that you have not createdthe database tables...

[Izzy Blacklock]

Further to my posts re this error (it has nothing to do with LDAP by the looks 
of it so I figured I should start another thread).  Just to recap, I'm 
getting the following error intermittently, sometimes with a broken link:

Fatal Error: It appears that you have not created the database tables for 
phpGroupWare. Click here to run setup.

At this point, I'm not sure the cause, but I'm more concerned with the 
security issue it creates.  The provided link, when it's correct, links 
directly to the setup III page without prompting for a password.  This could 
leave a site open to attach or stupid user syndrome.  I noticed it when the 
error came up when I was logged in as a non-admin user.  After hitting 
re-check my database a few times, the normal setup screen came up complete 
with the "uninstall all applications" button.

I'll post a bug report on this aspect of the problem.  I see past bug reports 
have been filed regarding the error coming up, but they've been closed with 
no solutions.
