Setting up an election:
0. vote/include/election-sql.php expects a secret config file that exists
only on the server and is included as PHP code. It's hard coded currently
to: /home/admin/secret/anonvoting currently.
You at least need to set these variables in it:
$mysql_host
$mysql
$mysql_password
$mysql_db
1. When I deploy, I create an account for the election, as the mysql root user:
mysql -u root -p
Password: <MYSQLROOTPW>
mysql> CREATE USER 'someusername' identified by 'somepassword';
mysql> CREATE DATABASE somedbname;
