I changed my password to a simple one, updated the site file, and it worked. I
tried changing it back but it would not let me create a password with an
exclamation mark in it, accumulo produces an exception saying the event was not
found. When you initially create the root user though, you can get away with an
exclamation mark in your password, which is how I got in that situation.

Might be a bug in JLine which we need to look into. We need to make sure that
we're not limiting the characters that can be used in user passwords.
