[Cwisusers] Installation Blues - Login

[Sebastian de la Chica]

Hi Ed,

- I am installing the latest version available on the site 0.9.4 (Beta).

- There was an entry in the APUsers table but the field UserName was
empty.

New Developments: I just tried reinstalling although this time I enabled
the Debug option in the SPT--InstallComplete.php and added two print
lines right b/f the APUsers table is updated from within said php file
to check thae values for username and password. Once again the
installation went thru fine and the debug lines were printed (the
general ones plus mine). When I checked the MySQL database, the username
was there and the login worked! I do not have time to go back and
experiment again to see if removing the Debug lines may have something
to do with it or if it was the choice of username and passwords that was
causing the problems. 

Pairs that failed included (username/password): cwisadmin/cwisadmin,
cwisroot/cwisroot... Again I do not have time right now to go back and
experiment much more, but will try to post whatever else I find out...

Thanks for the prompt reply,
Seb

   Hi Seb.  A couple of questions:  Are there any entries at all in the
   APUsers table after installation, or is it completely empty?  And
what
   version of CWIS are you installing?
