[Bug 1376072] Re: Lost username / password doesn't recgonise admin users email address

 

Ok, I'm not able to replicate the problem but I've found some
inconsistencies with the setting of the admin's email on install.

The problem here looks to be related to install of the mahara system -
when the admin user is first created it is assigned the
'admin@xxxxxxxxxxx' dummy email address.

This address is saved in usr table email column and is also saved in
artefact table under title column as artefacttype = 'email' and in
artefact_internal_profile_email table during the install page.

When you continue onto the next page you are prompted to save a new
password and email address

This new email is saved in the usr table  (post this fix:
https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/3201/2) and
artefact_internal_profile_email but doesn't update the artefact table.

When I install via cli I get the email address variable being saved in
usr table but not in artefact nor artefact_internal_profile_email - they
are still admin@xxxxxxxxxxx

We need to adjust it so whether installing via browser or cli that the
admin user's email address is correct in all three places
