Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-7112:
-------------------------------------
TL:DR because of:
* discussions seem to take place in both this issue and OFBIZ-7754 leading to a lot of confusion.
* other more important issues need to be addressed first.
As soon as I find the time I will have a proper look and try to work towards a solution is acceptable to all.

> Ofbiz reads properties from either a properties file or the entity:SystemProperty. The way it works previously is that ofbiz reads from the entity:SystemProperty first and if there is no value associated with the target propertyname, it would then locate the value from the relevant properties file.
> In other words, if there is a database entry for a property, the database entry should override the associated properties file.
> The issue is that if a database entry exist but the value is empty, it would look for a value from the properties file. It should not do so. If a database entry exists for the propertyname of interest, the value should be taken from the database even if it holds an empty value.
