http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15088 --- Comment #2 from Liz Rea <liz@catalyst.net.nz> --- Created attachment 44347 --> http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=44347&action=edit Bug 15088 - notice when koha has been installed with --request-db instead of --create-db Patch does 2 major things - * creates an options file during koha-create that lets us know what database option was used when the instance was created /etc/koha/sites/$name/createoptions * when an instance is removed, we assume we can do things to the database, per usual. If we have a createoptions, we'll read it and find out if our instance was created with create-db or request-db. If it was requested, we don't do anything with the database because we assume we don't have rights to, and print a message. If it was created, we do the same thing we've always done - remove the database and users (unless we've specified --keep-mysql) To test: create a throwaway instance with --create-db remove that instance, all should happen as normal. your instance should have an /etc/koha/sites/$name/createoptions file with REQUEST_DB=0 in it. create another throwaway instance with --request-db remove that instance, you should see a message alerting you to the fact that you may still have database work to do after Koha is removed. your instance should have an /etc/koha/sites/$name/createoptions file with REQUEST_DB=1 in it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
