We seriously do not have any extensions, either on the old host or the new host. We would like to be able to use LDAP at some point but it isn't looking good for keeping confluence overall.<BR>
<BR>
I wiped the new box and I wiped the database host and redid the entire process from the get go - we're still experiencing the same problem.<BR>

It looks like RT is having problems matching the SHA hashes, but I'm really not sure what's going on. I know in users.pm we convert the password the first time the user logs in from MD5 to SHA, but then it seems to fail all the new SHA matches. WTF?<BR>

What changed was
<A HREF="http://lists.bestpractical.com/pipermail/rt-announce/2011-January/000185.html">http://lists.bestpractical.com/pipermail/rt-announce/2011-January/000185.html</A>
It is also documented in docs/UPGRADING-3.8
It sounds like you have an extension somewhere that clobbers the new
password checking routine. It also sounds like you missed some parts
of the upgrade.
