Summary

0009701: Install/upgrade shouldn't need admin user when DB already exists

Description

Using PostgreSQL. I'm installing Mantis on a web server, and I've configured postgres to only allow a single non-admin user to access mantis database from there. I've created the database manually.

Couldn't get through the check "Attempting to connect to database as admin" (error: "Does administrative user have access to the database? ( Unable to Connect )")

So I've replaced the line 292 in install.php with just "$t_result = 1;", and the rest went well.

I don't think installation should insist on having admin access when it's not necessary. A checkbox for "Database already exists" on the installation form would be acceptable, if it's too complicated to figure this out automatically.

Notes
(0019604) jreese (administrator) 2008-10-20 11:31	1.1.x has known issues with database schemas for Postgresql; last I knew, Paul was the one dealing with trying to port the fixes from trunk back to 1.1.x.

(0019611) olegos (reporter) 2008-10-20 19:28	Trunk behaves the same way.
