    <p>Hi Ravi,</p>
    <p>I will look into why the upgrade did not do an update as well.&nbsp;
      The reason why you won't have been able to login is that various
      new fields have been added to the user data object / record.&nbsp;
      These are mainly to provide better security to temporarily lock
      accounts when there have been too many failed password attempts in
      a set period of time.</p>
    <p>I would generally say that EPrints from APT or YUM/DNF package
      management is generally not advised for production repositories.&nbsp;
      Packages are more intended for installing EPrints for testing and
      evaluation purposes.&nbsp; If you have a fairly vanilla repository
      updates are unlikely to cause any significant problems but the
      more bespoke your repository the more likely upgrading through the
      package manager is to cause you repository to fail.&nbsp; This is
      especially the case if parts of the core codebase have been
      modified on your installation.&nbsp; Although the package manager
      should warn you, if you choose not to use the latest version of a
      file being installed, it is likely this will leave you with an
      inconsistent version of EPrints that cannot be run.</p>
    <p>Regards</p>

            PPA. Over the weekend I did the usual update/upgrade tasks
            via the command line, and I noticed that there was a new
            version of EPrints. I installed it and ran '/bin/epadmin
            upgrade &lt;repository&gt;' as advised at the end of the
            install. Everything seemed okay on the command line (unless
            I overlooked some piece of advice), but I couldn't sign into
            the EPrints site with any of my accounts -- I got 'Incorrect
            username or password' every time. Thankfully '/bin/epadmin
            update &lt;repository&gt;' sorted things out.<br>
