Hi,
Andre suggested mailing to this list about task T236671 [0]. It is about a misleading error message issued when having senior moments and trying to run "update.php against" a non-existing database.
The issue is not a big deal, but it may be possible to improve usability without considerable effort. I cannot assess, though.
Thanks a lot for having a peep at this.
Cheers, Karsten
