Reported Issue
Contents
Description
Steps To Recreate

Description
During Service Pack installs when using installSPack.sh/.cmd the encrypted passwords stored in
ENVIRON.INI are corrupted. This is because setconfvalue.plx called by these scripts rewrites
ENVIRON.INI incorrectly.
Encrypted passwords are specifically corrupted because of the format of the stored encrypted
text. These values contain an "=" character as in this example:
DBPASS=ENC(4Pvqtt7gMX32k73H6m3VSnY3K0VQZNATRFxHCa9f58U=)

Steps To Recreate
1. back up $SPLEBASE/ENVIRON.INI
2. execute configureEnv.sh/.cmd and update the environment description to:
Test = 10124173
(the value needs to contain an "=" character)

3. execute:
perl setconfvalue.plx -k MPLADMINPORT -v 8802
(don't forget to change it back later!)
4. execute configureEnv.sh/.cmd and check the value for environment description. The
value is now "Test" instead of the expected "Test = 10124173"
(The value has been truncated at the first "=" character)
Also, encrypted password values in ENVIRON.INI will no longer contain the trailing
characters "=)"
