Plugin fails on a Mahara 1.4.0 / PostgreSQL site #1

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Attempt to install Shibboleth auth plugin into a working Mahara 1.4.0 site

The plugin fails to install due to PostgreSQL less-relaxed datatype checking.

In the version.php file, the two boolean assignments will be translated to 
empty strings by ADODB, and since the corresponding column datatypes are 
integer, PostgreSQL will puke.

Suggested change:
$config->requires_config = true;
$config->requires_parent = false;

Should be:
$config->requires_config = 1;
$config->requires_parent = 0;

In the lib.php file, lines 46-55 are not necessary because the LiveUser() 
constructor will initialize the properties, and the subsequent boolean 
assignments will cause new user creation to fail for the same reason as the 
installation failure.

Suggest lines 46-55 in lib.php be deleted.

Regards,
FW
