I am trying to understand the origin of a 'wordpress.php' file that exists in the root directory of one of the wp sites that I support. I know this isn't part of the initial build, but it may have been created by a plugin (perhaps WP-Auto-Upgrade?)
Here is the content of the file:
<?
system("gunzip ./wordpress.tar.gz");
system("tar xf ./wordpress.tar");
system("rm -f ./wordpress.tar");
$fp = fopen("./wp-config-sample.php", "r");
$filecontent = fread($fp, filesize("./wp-config-sample.php"));
$new_content = eregi_replace("%%DBNAME%%", $_REQUEST["db"], $fileconten$
$new_content = eregi_replace("%%DBUSER%%", $_REQUEST["u"], $new_content$
$new_content = eregi_replace("%%DBPASS%%", $_REQUEST["p"], $new_content$
fclose($fp);
$fp = fopen("./wp-config.php", "w");
fputs($fp, $new_content);
fclose($fp);
?>It appears to simply take the data from wp-config-sample.php and place it into the wp-config.php file. Anyone know the story behind this?
