Description

After a successfull installation following steps here https://mifosforge.jira.com/wiki/spaces/docs/pages/74711072/Mifos+X+Installation+on+Linux+-+Ubuntu+Server , it was possible to change the suggested root password for MySQL. 

But for the latest build, if you change the root password from "mysql" to something else, when you start tomcat, you will get errors. This looks like the root password (the suggested one) is hard coded in some files of the fineract
