Description

Hi,

the database connection fails, if % is defined inside the password. Maybe this isn't automatically escaped?

Best regards,
Daniel

Do you use double quotes to wrap your password in database.yml?

No i used the example config and changed the password.

For Example:
production:
password: test%test /* fails */

production:
password: testtest /* works */

Maybe those do quotes should be added in the example, like in the postgres example.

Yes, that should work with double quotes:

password: "test%test" 

I've updated the configuration example in r10729.
