      • All files available in $ARCOT_HOME/arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0/sdk/java/lib/external/
    3. Migrate the existing configuration that is saved in the authentication.properties file to the following file:
      $ARCOT_HOME/arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0/sdk/java/properties/webfort-5.4.1.authentication.properties/
      
    4. Migrate the existing configuration that is saved in the issuance.properties file to the following file:
      $ARCOT_HOME/arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0/sdk/java/properties/webfort-5.4.1.issuance.properties/
      
  6. Perform the following steps to verify that the migration of the database to the Release 6.0 state was successful:
    1. Navigate to the following location:
      <install_location>/arcot/logs/
      
    2. Open the arcotwebfortstartup.log file in any editor, and locate the following lines in the file:
      INSTANCE_VER.................................: [6.0]
      Arcot WebFort Authentication Service READY
      
    3. Ensure that the log file does not contain any FATAL or WARNING messages.
