| Re: [babel-dev] MySQL "failure" setting up babel environment |
I created the following bugzilla to address and track this issue:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=242011
Thanks everyone!

Matt,
That is very unfortunate and somewhat unavoidable. As far as I know
we are using the same scheme for passwords that Bugzilla uses. So
changing how Babel stores the user passwords away from the MySQL encrypt
command probably isn't an option. It might be worth looking into how
Bugzilla handles being installed on Windows (assuming they do).
To remedy the situation for local testing and developing on Windows we
might want to define a constant like WINDOWS_ENVIRONMENT. When
WINDOWS_ENVIRONMENT is set to true use a different set of MySQL queries
that use the PHP MD5 command or something else like that to obfuscate
the password for storing in the database.
