When I upgraded my site from 2.4.4 to 2.5.1 there was no upgrade folder in 2.5.1 so I used the upgrade folder from 2.5.0

Everything went nice and smooth. But afterwards I noticed little things in the admin not working right. Not sure why I looked, but in the mainfile.php I noticed all my database info was there. I thought to myself that should not be there, it should be in secure.php.

I FORGOT to make the mainfile.php writable. The Upgrade SHOULD have noticed that and warned me, I would think. But it did not, it went right through the upgrade process. So I had to create secure.php by hand and also recreate mainfile.php manually.

It happened to two sites before I caught it.

Just thought I should let someone know

Thanks,

John

UPDATE:

I guess it does not matter if mainfile.php is writable or not it does not process the mainfile to secure.php.

So it must be a bug and maybe alot of peoples little problems.

On a new install the database info is stored in secure.php but not an upgrade. On upgrade secure.php is empty.
