            Bug ID: 43698
           Summary: SMW_refreshData.php uses the restricted rights mysql
                    user $wgDBuser instead of $wgDBadminuser
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Semantic MediaWiki

Mediawiki provides two users: the standard
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDBuser
with restricted rights and
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDBadminuser
to be used with extended rights, e.g. when running upgrade.php.

SMW_refreshData.php however uses the restricted rights mysql user $wgDBuser
instead of $wgDBadminuser and fails to upgrade the database. This requires for
each update to change the rights of $wgDBuser for each database with SMW and
reset afterwards.

Please align the operation of SWM with standard Mediawiki in this respect to
reduce this work.
