Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/19800 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: base system Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: danielc Updated by: danielc Status: patch Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/settings.dburl.diff (581 bytes) Currently, the default $db_url in /drupal/sites/default/settings.php is "mysql://drupal:drupal@localhost/drupal". It would be helpful for end users if its contents were more descriptive, such as "mysql://user:password@localhost/databasename". A side benefit of this change is helping automated installation scripts determine if the settings in the /drupal/sites/default/ are meant to be used or not. This is because the existing db_url could possibly be used in real life while the proposed text is very unlikely to be used. danielc
