Summary | 0019583: Add $g_crypto_master_salt to sample config file | ||||
Description | I tried mantisbt-1.3.0-rc1-dev-master-83a66f1 to upgrade my 1.2.19 installation, and admin/install.php told me to add $g_crypto_master_salt to my config_inc.php file. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | $g_crypto_master_salt = 'lkfqsdjfklmqsdjfmklqsdfjlmqsdkfjqsldkmjf'; | ||||
Additional Information | Additionnaly, there is no $g_crypto_master_salt in config_inc.php.sample. | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
I was not able to reproduce the error with this string.
This is by design actually - the idea behind the salt is that it should be unique to each instance; if we provided a valid value in this file, many administrators will just rename the sample file and use the provided value as-is, defeating its purpose. What I can do is add $g_crypto_master_salt = ''; in the sample file with a comment indicating that it should be filled, if you think that would be more clear. |

MantisBT: master cbfe0832 2015-04-10 04:16 Details Diff |
Add $g_crypto_master_salt to sample config file Since the string is required for MantisBT to operate, including it in the sample file gives a good hint to administrators that they need to initialize it. Fixes 0019583 |
