Moving Stash to new server [Install problem]

Question

Hi, we'd like to move stash to a new server first and then upgrade this instance to the newest stash version. Currently we run Stash v2.4.1 with a mysql database. I did the steps like described here https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/STASH024/Migrating+Stash+to+another+server but I'm unable to start stash in its "old instance" after that. Server settings are: Mysql 5.5.38-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 Ubuntu 14.04 java version "1.7.0_80" When I run stash with the new database settings set in stash-config.properties file and I do see the stash frontend, it thinks I want to create a fresh installation of stash. I've set the path correctly in setupenv.sh and use the complete dir from the old server. On the old server, stash was connected to a JIRA instance. A newer JIRA instance already runs on the same server - in a different version (a newer version) than on the old server. Does that mean something? ~Pascal //Edit I have enabled debug logging via /shared/stash-config.properties and restartet STASH. In catalina.out I dont see the verbose debug logging. Where does that happen now?

I moved the file 'stash-config.properties' from /shared/ to just and now it uses the file. I dont know why I had this file created (or moved) to the shared folder. Probably because I was reading the newest STASH docs before reading the 2.4 docs for STASH. Silly me.
