Wordpress installation issue

Hi there and thanks for a great panel.

I'm having issues with wordpress installation from the addons menu. After the installation, I click the domain/path it created and get the error: "Error establishing a database connection". Checking Mysql manager shown no DB was created, hence I guess that's the problem.

As I could swear it worked before, I went through the hassle of setting another server with CWP, and tried installed wordpress the same exact way, without changing anything (even kept PHP 5.6.37 version), and I was quite surprised to find I get the same exact error.

Any idea?

Ok, further investigating I found 2 issues:

1. There are times the addon script is using a special character (in my case it was <) - in such case the db won't be created at all. Hence of course there's no way a connection can be established.

2. Still, when there's no special character and the db+user are created - still I get no connection! I'll try to investigate the wp-config file to see if there's a problem there. Still, if I delete wp-config the setup will continue!

Ok, I believe I found the problem.
I took the password the addon script put into the wp-config file and forced it again into the db's user. Ran the URL again and - BOOM! The setup continues!

I've just create another wordpress instance with the addon script just to make sure - and yes. I had to force the password from wp-config to the db's user password again.

So ok, I think I nailed it. Question is how it can be fixed.

unfortunately you can't

ring_c

Should be a good idea to have some kind of know bugs list. Maybe even use github...

Sandeep

if you founded any bugs, please open a ticket to track it.

ring_c

Any estimation when will this be fixed?
Customers can't install Wordpress alone. :(

Sandeep

developers are notified about it this will take some time as they have many jobs to do.

ring_c

Can you say when the next version is due?

I already have the last version (0.9.8.723). For all I know there's no newer version than that.
