> 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.
