Summary08960: Persistent "Cdbconnection failed to open the db connection" error
Description

After complete successful installation on a webserver I got a permanent "Cdbconnection failed to open the db connection" error.
I use a very long MySQL password string containing '\' and '"'
I found that in LimeSurvey/application/config/config.php these characters where escaped to '\' and '\"' although the installation did not fail.
Manually editing the config.php on the webserver helps me out in this case.

TagsNo tags attached.

Update: Manually editing the config.php did not help me out.
After the fresh install I was not able to log on as Admin, probably because the installation script did not run completely.
Not knowing better I was forced to erase all (PHP&SQL) and restart from scratch with a MySQL password without '\' and '"'
:-(
