Nico Knoll Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hey, when I'm installing PW local I use a XAMPP installation where MySQL has no password. So I always have to "hack" the installation progress to use it because db password is "required". Could someone remove the required="required" stuff for this field?

adrian Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hey Nico, I installed a local copy of latest dev yesterday without a db password. Are you installing stable or dev? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiNNuT Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 The password requirement has been retired for at least a couple of months now on the dev branch. https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/ProcessWire/issues/278 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n0sleeves Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I installed a fresh PW dev version about an hour ago on a Wamp machine. It too had a password requirement. Ended up having to create a user in PhpMyAdmin with a password :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felix Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I installed a fresh PW dev version about an hour ago on a Wamp machine. It too had a password requirement. Ended up having to create a user in PhpMyAdmin with a password :/ Open up devtools -> inspect the form -> add novalidate as an attribute.

Ended up having to create a user in PhpMyAdmin with a password :/ ProcessWire dev has no DB password requirement, and hasn't for months. Can you post a screenshot or paste in the error that you got? Also adding novalidate as an attribute won't help on the dev installer because the field has no required attribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
