page=OmeroLinuxInstallHowto

Just assuming you're using this documentation page. If you're not, is  
there somewhere else you retrieved the information from Curtis?


The Quick Install assumes that you're going to use "omero"/"omero" as  
your database user and password, it states:

* NOTE: For a Quick Install it is assumed that you will follow the  
examples laid out here with an password of omero for the omero  
database user.


If you want to change these settings you must follow the "Manual  
Install" instructions, where it states:

* Edit the etc/local.properties file in the OMERO distribution based  
upon your database user and password choices.


Happy to modify the text and/or make it more explicit (Font size 32  
maybe? :)). Thoughts?


So, have you followed the "Manual Install" instructions? As you've  
changed the local.properties file, you must:

export JBOSS_HOME=~/Desktop/omero-3.0-Beta1/jboss-4.0.4.GA
java omero update deploy

(These instructions are in the "Reconfiguration" section of the  
Install document)

You can confirm proper deployment by examining the $JBOSS_HOME/server/ 
default/deploy directory.

Yes, it's normal.
