Description

Hi,

I've been having some problems installing redmine 2.4.1. On my local virtual machine i was using a very simple password for the mysql user (only numbers and letters). On the production server we had the following password (which we are not using any more, of course): $enerD$Mi2

If during the installation process I create the user redmine in Mysql and give it this password, this is what happens:

root@redmine:/usr/local/share/redmine# bundle install --without development test postgresql sqlite
Gemfile syntax error:

There is absolutely no more information than this, but the installation process stops here and there is no way to carry on.

If I try the same with my local password (only numbers and letters), it works on my local machine and also on the production server.

I initially though that maybe the problem was that I was using special characters (% and $), but then I tried using the password $%hola and it worked.

I spent quite a lot of time trying to find out what was going on, so it would be nice if you could check it out. Just in case someone finds themselve in the same situation.

This is what we are using:

MySQL 5.5.31
Redmine version 2.4.1.stable
Ruby version 1.9.3-p194 (2012-04-20) [x86_64-linux]
Rails version 3.2.15
Environment production
Database adapter Mysql2

Thanks a lot and let me know if you need more information.
