| Subject: | mysql connection test fails - insecure default |
When installing DBD::mysql through the CPAN shell, it never stops to ask
me what username/password to use for the tests where it connects to
mysql. It just uses user root and a blank password. So, I can either
leave mysql insecure while installing DBD::mysql, or I can't use CPAN.
I did notice in the documentation that you can specify the user and
password by changing them in the test configuration - but you can't do
that via CPAN. (At least not that I could find!)
Would it be possible for the test script to prompt for a username and
password before doing the connection tests?
