[rt-users] RT Upgrade going bad (4.0.8 -> 4.2.2)

[Nick Fennell]

So it’s mainly this I’m having issues with;

{{{
[6096] [Tue Feb  4 10:12:39 2014] [critical]: Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /tmp/rt-4.2.2/sbin/../lib/RT/Crypt.pm line 237. (/tmp/rt-4.2.2/sbin/../lib/RT.pm:393)
Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /tmp/rt-4.2.2/sbin/../lib/RT/Crypt.pm line 237.
make: *** [upgrade-database] Error 255
}}}

I’ve had to scrap the upgrade and revert to a snapshot (I love VMs) from before I started. Means I’m back to v4.0.8.

Any ideas would be good!
