Upgrade to Roller 4.0: Cannot Login
We have an existing installation of Roller 3.0 and would like to upgrade
it to Roller 4.0 (rc3).
I backup the database, created the file roller-custom.properties, copied
the necessary jars, create and deploy the roller war using Tomcat
Manager.
The upgrade process went well, the database got upgraded, and I can
access the roller homepage. But, when I tried to login, it always failed
even though the username/password is valid. I checked roller.log but see
no errors.
Is there something wrong with my upgrade steps or any other explanation
why this happens?
The configuration is Roller 4.0rc3 on Tomcat 5.5.20, JDK 1.5.0_06, and
MySQL 4.1.20
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

Perhaps this is the problem:
Roller now defaults to storing passwords in the database in an
emcrypted format. So, if you are upgrading an older version of Roller
and you went with the default setting for encrypted passwords, which
was off by default, then you'll need to set this propery in your
roller-custom.properties file:
passwds.encryption.enabled=false
(that is from the 4.0 RC6 installation guide)
