Graeme Ruthven updated MIFOS-2850:
----------------------------------
Description:
The instructions in the INSTALL file included with both 1.4.2 and Gazelle C use
"root" in section 3.2 of the accompanying INSTALL file.
This is repeated in mainDatabase.properties.
This is very poor security practice and does not reflect the instructions on
the Mifos Ubuntu Install wiki page on www.mifos.org.
I strongly recommend that all samples, examples and instructions are altered to
remove references to using the root user for connection to any of the mifos
databases. "mifos" or "mifosuser" would be more suitable.
The local.properties file in the config directory of the 1.4.2 download file
uses "mifos".
