Re: upgrading the main database

Hi Markus,

refdbd is now failing unless a username is supplied.  Here is the 
feedback if there is no username:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# refdbd -a -D sqlite -e 0 -l 7 -i /var/lib/refdb/db/refdb
incorrect username
# refdbctl start
incorrect username
/usr/bin/refdbctl start: bibliography tool application server could not 
be started
/
#
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

refdbd has not previously required a username when running an sqlite 
backend.

When a spurious username is supplied it attempts to run but still fails:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# refdbd -a -D sqlite -u spurious -e 0 -l 7 -i /var/lib/refdb/db/refdb
dbi_driver_dir went to:

The database location is correct.
