To the Community, Wanted to let everyone know to make sure you get the following prerequisites right before trying to install mifos,
1. MySQL version should be 5.5 or 5.6 2. JDK version should be 8 and you can download the latest from following link https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/javase-jdk8-downloads.html This is one of the reasons for "Couldn't connect to server. Make sure you are using correct settings.
