[mv] MiniVend 4 Bug

I found a bug within MiniVend 4. 

Situation is as follows:
We have a catalog with the following configuration:

# Define the site-specific information
#
ParseVariables Yes
Variable    SERVER_NAME     @@SERVER_NAME@@
Variable    CGI_URL         /@@CGIBIN@@/bonobo
Variable    SECURE_SERVER   https://@@SERVER_NAME@@
Variable    ORDERS_TO       @@ORDERS_TO@@
Variable    IMAGE_DIR       /bonobo/images

VendURL                 http://__SERVER_NAME____CGI_URL__
SecureURL               __SECURE_SERVER____CGI_URL__
MailOrderTo             __ORDERS_TO__

Database persons persons.asc SQL
Database persons DSN dbi:mysql:bonobo
Database persons USER @@BONOBO_USER@@
Database persons PASS @@BONOBO_PASS@@

ProductFiles persons
ParseVariables No

NoImport persons import

# get translations 
Locale de_CH readfile 1


Quite simple, isn't it ? The problem is that the password for
the database wrong. MiniVend calls import_database for this
and fails. No error message, just calls itself recursively here
(Data.pm, 774ff):

		if($@) {
#::logDebug("Dieing of $@");
			die $@ unless $no_import;
			if(! -f $database_dbm) {
				$Vend::ForceImport{$obj->{name}} = 1;
				return import_database($obj);
			}
		}

I think this may be problem, Christian Müller noticed once, MiniVend
just sucks all memory :-)

Bye
