Upgrade to Artifactory OSS 5.4, and Artifactoy won't start

Question

I have upgraded from Artifactoy 5.1 to 5.4. Now Artifactory will now start. Getting the following error:

Can you share more details about how you performed the upgrade? — Dror Bereznitsky

This error occurs due to a missing step during the upgrade process. As mentioned in the wiki page, as part of the upgrade, you need to remove the existing $ARTIFACTORY_HOME/bin folder and copy over the new one from the extracted zip file.

This step is crucial, as it contains a property which makes the Access service to be bundled with Artifactory. When this property is missing, the Access service creates a new database with a new admin token, which is different than the existing one. This results in the 401 error that you're seeing, which prevents Artifactory from being restarted.

In order to overcome this issue, follow the steps of the upgrade process, including the removal of the existing bin folder.
