WORK + SAVES ROOT PASSWORD TO DISK!
The secure installation scripts connect to the
server by storing the password in a temporary
option file. Now, if the script gets killed or
fails for some reason, the removal of the option
file may not take place.
This patch introduces following enhancements :
* (.sh) Made sure that cleanup happens at every
call to 'exit 1'. This is performed implicitly
by END{} in pl.in.
* (.pl.in) Added a warning in case unlink fails
to delete the option/query files.
* (.sh/.pl.in) Added more signals to the signal
handler list. SIG# 1, 3, 6, 15
special chars
This script failed when the user tried passwords with multiple spaces, \, # or
' characters. Now proper escaping and quoting is used in all contexts.
This problem occurs in the Perl version of this script, too, so fix it in both
places.
Term::ReadKey"
Add the missing module import. Also, while here, fix a few glaring problems
with the script, and ensure that it behaves properly. It seems this script
may have never been working correctly (e.g., reading password didn't chomp()
the result, so password was set with \n at the end; comparing the re-typed
password to original was done with inverted test).
Add END { cleanup(); } block to ensure the script removes temporary working
files.
Add SIG{INT} / SIG{QUIT} handler.
Do a bit of reorganization to make the code easier to understand.
Limit failed connection attempts to 3.
Use ./bin/mysql if it exists, and then fall back on mysql in PATH (before it
assumed 'mysql' in the path). Print a nicer error if 'mysql' can't be called.
This has been tested on Windows (ActivePerl from cmd.exe, no cygwin needed)
and Linux.
