4Subject: [PATCH] Setup: remove custom dbuser creation behavior
5
6Both PostgreSQL and MySQL can be authenticated against from Nextcloud by
7supplying a database password. Now, during setup the following things
8happen:
9
10* When using postgres and the db user has elevated permissions, a new
11 unprivileged db user is created and the settings `dbuser`/`dbpass` are
12 altered in `config.php`.
13
14* When using MySQL, the password is **always** regenerated since
15 24.0.5/23.0.9[1].
16
17I consider both cases problematic: the reason why people do configuration
18management is to have it as single source of truth! So, IMHO any
19application that silently alters config and thus causes deployed
20nodes to diverge from the configuration is harmful for that.
21
22I guess it was sheer luck that it worked for so long in NixOS because
23nobody has apparently used password authentication with a privileged
24user to operate Nextcloud (which is a good thing in fact).
