I'm one of the originators and current maintainers of Roxy. I vaguely remember that there was a reason we split those in the beginning, but assuming there was, I have no idea what it was. From a review of the code, they appear to be used interchangeably.

Values for both are set in deploy/default.properties. I suggest ensuring that they have the same value. You can either stick with the default, or if you need to change it, this should work:

app-modules-db=my-better-name
modules-db=${app-modules-db}

There was a proposal to merge the two (feel free to +1 that issue to bump up its priority), and I think that's something we on the Roxy team should do. Until then, just ensure you have the same value.
