---------------------------------------------------------------------
I think i had 2 options
Option1 editing file src\main\resources\META-INF\spring\hikariDataSource.xml
before building the war (since i use tomcat)
or
Option2 editing
tomcat\webapps\fineract-provider\WEB-INF\classes\META-INF\spring\hikariDataSource.xml
but this can only be done using the default passwords - you launch tomcat
once all is ok stop tomcat and edit the file
so i edited the server.xml too with the new root password
<property name=_"driverClassName"_ value=_"${fineract_tenants_driver}"_ />
<property name=_"jdbcUrl"_ value=_"${fineract_tenants_url}"_ />
<property name=_"username"_ value=_"*put the user name*"_ />
<property name=_"password"_ value=_"*put the password*"_ />
also set the user name and password in mysql
Started tomcat and all worked like a charm

> After a successfull installation following steps here
