[postfixadmin:feature-requests] #40 Installer - check perms to create tables etc

[Christian B. <chr...@us...>]

- **Comment**:

setup.php comes with a note to use ?debug=1 if something fails, and with that, it will print out all queries it runs.

I know failing ist not really a permission check, but IMHO it's good enough ;-)  Nevertheless, I'll accept patches that do it 100% correct for mysql, postgresql and sqlite ;-)

Quite a few users seem to run into problems on installation regarding the ability to create tables within their db.

The installer \(setup.php\) should check to see whether the db user can create tables within the database, and if not, it should write out the SQL to screen for the user to run.
\(Presumably this is just a case of doing "echo $sql" rather than "db\_query\($sql\)"\)

The user can then be responsible for copy & pasting the SQL in as appropriate.
