DescriptionThe P4DTI test suite invokes the MySQL command-line client on Windows in a way which doesn't reliably work. We say 'mysql -u "<user>" "<database>" -e "<command>"', but for some values of the command this mysteriously fails. Found by reading the logs of a test suite run.
AnalysisSay instead 'mysql -u "<user>" -e "<command>" "<database>"'
