Hi Dani, Great catch! I like in your solution that it's greatly simplified compared to the original code. However, I believe that the process that executes the whoami command is never destroyed and hangs around in the background, according to the Process class' documentation (subprocesses with no reference to them are not destroyed): https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Process.html Probably this is why the original while loop existed (?) I'm really just guessing. Anyway, I find it strange to use whoami to get the username here, as this username is later on usedd by DirectMySQLManager. So this username is probably for the database, which is usually different than what whoami returns (at least on my system, it is). Better to throw an exception if it's not set?
