#4157 (ok 4.2.0) Changing users password will delete it

[Spider.007]

When using the "Change Login Information / Copy User" block to update a users password, since I don't want 2 users with different pwds, I selected 'delete the old one from the user tables.'

This results in a resultpage (list of users) that seems fine. When reloading that page however; the user disappears because it has been deleted!

Spider,
if you want to just change the password, you should not use the "Change Login Information / Copy User" dialog but the "Change password" dialog. The steps you did, resulted in deleting the user, because you changed neither the host nor the username part, and asked to delete the "old" user.

Therefore, this had for result that a DROP USER query was generated. The only bug here, is in the first page refresh that still was displaying the user.

Hugues,
this is not resolved for 4.0.10 but for 4.2.0.
