Hi all,

I was able to run Mifos 1.2.2 successfully on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) using the
suggestions from Adam and Ryan (use Tomcat tarball instead). I'll try to
experiment using the default package of Ubuntu when I have the free time.

Thanks to all those who replied.

BTW, can't wait go get my hands on version 1.3. Congratulations to the Mifos
development team!
