Migrating to Post-v1.2 Database Configuration

Mifos database connection configuration changes significantly with the Gazelle A release. Here is how the former connection settings map to the new configuration file format:
list-table:: New Database Configuration Settings:header-rows: 1

• - Setting - Mifos 1.2 - Mifos Gazelle-A
• - custom database configuration file - deploymifosDB.properties - local.properties
• - directory for custom database configuration file - AppServerClasspath - Mifos Configuration Locations
• - database/schema name - part of hibernate.connection.url - main.database
• - username - hibernate.connection.username - main.database.user
• - password - hibernate.connection.password - main.database.password
• - database port - part of hibernate.connection.url - main.database.port

Hibernate-specific cache configuration is considered an advanced topic and is not covered in this guide. Property names for these settings are available in mainDatabase properties in source control.
