Description MZMcBride 2013-04-14 03:31:22 UTC 
There's a report that when specifying "@zhy\$%84hsi3" as the database password in the MediaWiki installer, the string is changed to "@zhy\\\$%84hsi3" in the generated LocalSettings.php file, making the wiki database inaccessible.

I've not confirmed this bug.
Comment 1 Andre Klapper 2013-04-14 12:21:37 UTC 
Version info welcome (in general). Is this git master (1.22)?
Or a 1.21rc tarball?
Comment 2 Andre Klapper 2013-04-23 10:38:30 UTC 
MZMcBride: Which MW version is this about?
Comment 3 MZMcBride 2013-04-24 05:51:52 UTC 
I don't remember. I was just relaying a user report from #mediawiki.
