> h2. Do what?
> * Confirm that the Mifos database connection works before starting up Mifos.
> * If not,
> ** prompt the user to change the db connection settings
> ** test those settings (try to connect again)
> ** fix or create a local.properties file (or at least display what should go 
> into MIFOS_CONF/local.properties) 
> h2. Rationale
> I see this as a blocker for many, many folks. All of us have run into this at 
> some time or other. Mifos assumes a database is present, and crashes horribly 
> if it is not.
> Since Mifos has no real installer, there's nothing to help the user quickly 
> and effectively connect Mifos to a database.
> h2. Other ideas
> These should probably be separate issues:
> * Remove the existing DatabaseInitFilter.
> * Also provide assistance for database connections for BIRT reports and Mifos 
> BI (Pentaho).
> * This "assistance" with configuring the Mifos database connection must 
> happen before Mifos proper starts up. When working on this, keep in mind that 
> we may want to do other things during this time, like [show progress on 
> database upgrades|MIFOS-2742].
> h2. See also
