If the database password is set to something that includes special characters, upgrade.php fails before it even starts. The sql password I had included the follow characters: .$& one of them seems to cause the upgrade script to fail with the following message. The upgrade continues after changing the password to something simpler.

Notice: Undefined variable: Nypc in /home/marticus/public_html/FUDforum2/upgrade.php(995) : eval()'d code on line 36

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user [email]'marticus_fudforu'@'localhost'[/email] (using password: YES) in /home/marticus/public_html/FUDforum2/upgrade.php on line 456

I'm unable to reproduce the problem. I've installed FUDforum 2.8.1RC1 and changed the admin password to X.$&. The upgrade script connects successfully with this password and upgrades the forum.

Do you have "Magic Quotes" enabled (it is OFF on my forum)?

Best regards.
