Description

Hi all,

I'm just letting you know that if you have a database user that has a password with certain special characters ( in my case: "!" ) the installation will encounter a parse error when loading kalturaCE/kaltura/api_v3/config/database.ini

Thanks,
Jeremy Herrman

Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for posting this here as well.

This issue was fixed in the code by wrapping the passwords in the settings files (database.ini and databases.yml) in double-quotes.

Next release will include this fix.

We will also try to push it to the SVN before next release so that anyone that want's to checkout from SVN and use the latest code fixes will be able to do so.
