Technically, it's impossible for installer to create database for you UNLESS you provide it with username and password of the superuser (e.g. root).<br>After installation, it stores the superuser name and password in a config file to remember them later whenever it wants to connect to the database. This is bad security, it leaves your superuser information out somewhere. Due to a security bug in ANY application running under apache, someone could be able to read your config file and steal your superuser information.
