Summary0008715: Problem with db installation in binary package for Ubuntu
DescriptionWhile in the installation documentation, one should create the database taler-merchant. And this is the database, that is pre-configured in all the config files.

I fixed the documentation to use 'talermerchant'. That said, you probably should just have run taler-merchant-dbconfig which automates everything!
