jbrewster updated MIFOS-2850:
-----------------------------

    Status: Verified  (was: Resolved)

> Remove all References to Using the user "root: when Connecting to a MySQL 
> Database
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: MIFOS-2850
>                 URL: http://mifosforge.jira.com/browse/MIFOS-2850
>             Project: mifos
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Authentication
>    Affects Versions: Release 1.4, Release 1.5
>         Environment: All
>            Reporter: Graeme Ruthven
>            Assignee: Adam Monsen
>             Fix For: Release 1.5
>
>
> 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".
