I am relatively new so forgive me if this is not the right place to report this. I was looking at the installation on RHEL using RPM based builds as many companies are CentOS based if they cannot afford RHEL.
I am using RHEL 7 with tomcat 7, Maria 10.1 and java 1.8. The issue I see is that the mysql root password in the server.xml appears to be ignored if it is anything other than "mysql". RHEL 7 looks fine with the tomcat and Maria connects and generates the tables as long as the password is mysql otherwise it fails. Could it be that the mysql root password is hard coded to be mysql somewhere? Regards Paul
