Root auto logs on - Windows install

I have noticed a few people having a similar problem.

After a new install on a windows platform, I never see the logon page. RT goes immediately into the console logged in as root.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Stuart

yes - update to latest version of RT … (if you are using the newest
windows installer)

  1. stop all RT services
  2. download latest RT version (tgz)
  3. unpack the tgz file
  4. copy the new version files into the “old” RT version
  5. start RT
  6. run the db update script (as described in the upgrade procedure)

When I try this method with rt-3.4.2 I get a "server is misconfigured page’.

The db update script you refer to is initdb.cgi, correct?

I can paste back in the old version, run the script and it runs fine,
except for the undesirable auto-login feature.

I’m very new to mysql, apache, and perl so please be verbose with any
advice you might have.

thanks,
Bill
