Rudder

I have been trying to automate the install and configuration of a rudder server and have noticed that when i use the external-db.conf the install will move along fine but during the post install script it will still randomize the passwords saved in /root/.pgpass and /opt/rudder/etc/rudder-passwords.conf causing the DB upgrade to fail and rudder-jetty to fail to restart after. I confirm this by validating the password in the external-db.conf does not match the password in the other 2 files but if i update them with the correct passwords jetty will start.
