Good morning,

 

I am having a problem upgrading from version 5.3.4 to version 6.0.3.

 

Here’s my situation:

·         I have a production installation running on “server1” (version 5.3.4).

·         I’ve created a VMware virtual machine named “server2” and installed version 5.3.4 on it. I’ve followed the instructions in the documentation on moving to a new server. It’s running with a temporary, dedicated DNS server so that it thinks that it’s the proper server name.

·         I’ve tested the new 5.3.4 installation and am happy that it’s working OK. (I then take a VMware snapshot so that I can easily roll back to this spot.)

·         I unpack the 6.0.3 tar ball and do the configure, make, and make install.

·         I then update my perl modules using sympa_wizard.pl –check

·         I then run sympa.pl –upgrade. The upgrade doesn’t report any errors.

·         I started the sympa processes.

 

Sounds great so far. It’s just that I can’t login with any of my user accounts.  I get a message saying the password you submitted is incorrect. It allows me to request a new password and I can change my password which then allows me to login. After that everything appears to work OK. But I can’t make all my subscribers change their passwords. Why is the upgrade breaking my passwords?

 

Thanks!

Pat
