There is no way to configure ident identification in config/application.properties

[yuriiz]

While performing this step:

$ cp config/application.properties.example config/application.properties // Update properties as necessary

It is not possible to configure ident identification to postgresql database. Setting

datasource.hq.password=
datasource.formplayer.password=

Results in:

Caused by: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "commcarehq"

(verified psql formplayer connects fine).
And removing this lines completely from application.properties results in:

Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Could not autowire field: private java.lang.String application.WebAppContext.hqPostgresPassword; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not resolve placeholder 'datasource.hq.password' in string value "${datasource.hq.password}"

Similar error happens on omitting couchdb credentials.

Hi @yuriiz thanks for reporting. we've noticed it as well and are going to try and fix soon (work around being to add a password)
