''On CrushFTP4, you only had a DSA key located in the "conf" folder. CrushFTP4.app/Contents/Resources/Java/conf/''
\\

\\
Loading DB drivers that are not in your classpath has also changed. This means if your DB drivers
are not part of your plugins/lib folder, they will not be loaded by CrushFTP. (Statistics DB if you changed it, SQL Users if you are using that, etc.)
\\

!!CrushFTP4 upgrade troubleshooting tips.
----
!Linux Upgrade:\\
At line 59 added one line
- download the crush package, unzip it into /var/opt \\
At line 54 changed one line
v4 has a bit of a mess on its user connection groups. So when you look in the folder "users" you see MainUsers, lookup_21, lookup_80, etc.
- make it executable, as root : chmod +x crushftp_init.sh \\
At line 56 changed one line
Figure out which ones are correct. MainUsers is the default location since v5. But you can use the other named folders just fine too.
- register your CrushFTP 11 license key in your old CrushFTP admin dashboard, about tab\\
At line 58 changed one line
In the prefs, on the tab with the list of ports, down at the bottom is a list of the user connection groups. Remove or add them as appropriate to match up with the real ones you have based on the folder names in the users folder.
- copy over the files from the above steps for the Windows / macOS upgrade\\
At line 60 changed one line
Then on each port, check to see what user connection group they are configured for. Assign them appropriately.
- change dir into /var/opt/CrushFTP11/ \\
At line 62 changed one line
If you haven't done this then logins may fail when you start using CrushFTP7 as it can't find the users since they aren't associated to the port you are using.
- while as root, execute: ./crushftp_init.sh uninstall -- for all older versions daemon launch reference to be removed. (No CrushFTP app files are touched)\\
- while as root, execute: ./crushftp_init.sh install -- to have latest CrushFTP installed daemon launch reference added. (No CrushFTP app files are touched)\\
----
!!Critical Post Update Items:\\
Copy over your TempAccounts folder if you have been using the WebInterface 'Share...' feature.\\
\\
Copy over your "s3" folder which has all the XML pointers to your S3Crush filesystem...only applies if you use S3Crush\\
\\
Copy over your Previews folder so image previews don't need to be re-generated.\\
\\
Copy over any custom logo images from your WebInterface folder, but do not overwrite any login.html files as CrushFTP 11 is different.\\
\\
Copy over your SSL keystore if you had it in your CrushFTP folder, and update the Preferences, encryption, SSL config to point at the new location.\\
\\
Copy over your 'jobs" folder if you have the enterprise version. It is in your CrushFTP folder.\\
\\
Your daemon/service may have been running with additional memory, re-configure the new version with the equivalent memory.\\
\\
Your daemon/service may have been running as a domain user on Windows. Change the service to be running as that domain user again or UNC VFS paths will fail.\\
\\
Copy over your private SSH key files for the server if they are in their default location. (ssh_host_rsa_key, ssh_host_rsa_key.pub, ssh_host_dsa_key, ssh_host_dsa_key.pub, etc.)\\
\\
Optional: If you want your statistics for reporting to transfer over from v6/v7/v8/v9/v10 to v11, then copy the statsDB folder too.\\
