190864 - typo in MySQL setup instructions

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Documentation, defect)

Description

[Diego Biurrun]

There's a small typo in the MySQL setup instructions:

 mysql>  UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('<new_password'>) WHERE user='root';
                                                        ^^^^

It should correctly read

 mysql>  UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('<new_password>') WHERE user='root';
                                                        ^^^^

It's small but it can bite you if you don't know anything about MySQL like I do.
 Please fix this.  I don't provide a patch since it's so trivial.  Thanks.

This was FIXED by the checkin I just did for bug 191034.

This is still present in 2.17.4 and CVS, it was obviously not fixed by your
commit.  Patch coming up in a second.

This patch fixes the typo in the xml/, html and txt directories.  No idea if
all were necessary or not, you get to choose which to apply :-)

attachment 122514 [details] [diff] [review] has only the XML patch, fyi.

typo correction

This only needs to the change to the .xml file... all the rest are generated.
It would have been more work sorting through this patch than just applying it
manually :).  Clearing the review request rather than deny it.

Fix checked in (did 2.16 as well).

Also checked in compiled versions so it will show up on the web page.

Just checked the web page, it's fixed, thanks.  Marking VERIFIED.
