MarionL - changed db url to use remote url.

Changed db url to use remote url (Amazon AWS) - in the mysql
configuration.
Made the same remote url change to the example server.xml file for
tomcat.
Modified gitignore to allow war file to be checked in - this is the
reason it didn't show up during final master check-in.
Added the war file.
MarionL - found a defect in the build script

Found a defect in build script where the jar file was not getting the
properties loaded into it as expected. This is not an issue for the war
loaded under documentation as it was exported directly from Eclipse.
