Tompsett <mtompset@hotmail.com> --- Created attachment 79052 --> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=79052&action=edit Bug 20929: Create and Use CNF file Rather than have hostname, username, and passwords on the command line, visible with a ps, use a CNF file so that mysqldump knows them more securely. TEST PLAN ---------- 1) start kohadevbox 2) reset_all 3) sudo systemctl deamon-reload 4) git bz apply 20929 -- choose just this patch 5) restart_all 6) perl /home/vagrant/misc4dev/cp_debian_files.pl 7) sudo koha-dump kohadev 8) ls -la /var/spool/koha/kohadev -- there is a koha-dump.cnf file with rw owner only perms 9) sudo cat /var/spool/koha/kohadev/koha-dump.cnf -- the host, username, and password should match what are in the koha-conf.xml file. 10) zcat the backup to make sure the backup has meaningful data in it. BONUS TEST: Change the kohadev DB password, make the koha-conf.xml file match, confirm your kohadev still works, and that a retest has the new username/password in the koha-dump.cnf file. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
