[opencms-dev] Workaround for mysql login problem

[kwaH]

Hi,

unfortunately most of the hints I received did not work.

There is still a workaround if you want to install
OpenCMS just for the purpose of knowing how it looks:

If you start your mysqld with the option -Sg or --skip-grant-tables,
the tables for authentication will be ignored and OpenCMS will login,
regardless of what login information is submitted as user and password.

Sure this is *not* the right way for a production environment :-)

Regards,

Emre
