             Summary: axis2.xml uses weak password , automated penetration 
tools are complaining
                 Key: AXIS2-5910
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-5910
             Project: Axis2
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: robert lazarski


The are 48 axis2.xml file in source control it seems, and they all have the 
same weak password in each file. 

As penetration tools become ubiquitous, they are all finding the same problem 
with these weak credentials in axis2.xml . 

We should consider the Tomcat approach and just comment out the entire username 
/ password section, as that doesn't seem to break anything. It doesn't, for 
example, break the happyaxis.jsp .

Next step I suppose would be replacing all 48 files with comments, and running 
the unit tests?
