I need help with this one too. Bumping up.

Yes, well I know that, and I’ve did that my self. That wasn’t the point in posting it here. The point was that it’s probably not what you would expect if you filter out the user tables.

If I don’t want the user tables as part of my build (ie. clear out all user data), than I should still be able to log in to the new site with a new admin account, which is impossible with the current behaviour. This makes it quite useless for people who are not familiar with database management.

For me, this is no problem, since I know how to handle databases, but it did give me trouble trying to figure out why a new admin account couldn’t be created and why I couldn’t use my old admin account either. It’s just an annoying issue that took some time to solve.

That’s why you should consider this a bug report.

Yes, that is correct.

Yep, I can reproduce it, both on localhost and my shared hosting account. It always fails creating the user tables even though I deactivate all plugins.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create package of original site, filtering wi1_users and wi1_usermeta tables.
2. Run the Duplicator installer on new domain and choose to create a new admin user.

Desired behaviour: Should recreate filtered user tables and enter the new admin user in wi1_users.

Actual behaviour: Fails to create user tables, thus doesn’t create the new admin user. Fails with warning “NEW WP-ADMIN USER: Failed to create the user ‘<username>'”
