Quick question

[cesy]

I'm trying to review bug 671, which includes email notifications. I've been told ESN requires TheSchwartz, so I'm looking at the wiki page to set it up.

It mentions the following line of code in etc/config-local.pl:

pass => $DW::PRIVATE::THESCHWARTZ_DBS{pass},

However, there's a very similar block in etc/config-private.pl from the recent database changes (it's the one that was somewhere different before and we had to copy and paste across), and that has:

pass => "password", #CHANGE THIS

(Or something similar - I don't have access to my Dreamhack right now so can't double-check the syntax, but that was the gist of it.)

So, should I change it to a new password, or which existing password, or should it be what's on the wiki? Also, which file should it be in?

pass => "password", #CHANGE THIS

Yep, change that "password" in config-private.pl to your password in quotes. Then it will use your actual password when it calls pass => $DW::PRIVATE::THESCHWARTZ_DBS{pass}, in config-local.pl.

This was implemented so that when config-local.pl is changed, you don't lose your Schwarzt setup, I think.

Thanks.

Do I invent a new password for this, or is it meant to be the same as my db one?

The same password as your Dreamhack itself has, yes.

(I hope - I never changed my DH passwords)

Same as your database one
