[TYPO3-windows] Typo3 problem: Create "admin" user does not create a user in DB.

[Nick Cohn]

Hello

 

I am installing typo3 for the first time and can't work out what the problem
is.  Everything seems to be OK.  Install script reports no errors with DB.
If I use the Create "admin" user function in Database Analyser in Install
Tool it reports back "User Created" with no errors.  If I then go to the
Backend log in page I can't log in.  If I query the DB I get the following
result:

 

C:\>mysql -e "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM be_users" typo3

 

+----------+

| COUNT(*) |

+----------+

| 0        |

+----------+

 

Further the database seems to be working fine.  The Install Tool can access
the database OK. At first I had a problem accessing the database because of
the known hashing problems but that all works now (old_passwords added to
my.ini). All of the graphical tests in the Install Tool work well. "COMPARE"
under Database Analyser in Install Tool reports everything OK.

 

I am a MCSE/IBM Administrator (AIX) but Open source software and databases
are new to me.  I can't find anything about such a problem via typo3
documentation or Google.  Please help!

 

Thanks

 

Nick Cohn
