In Crowd 1.1, two new web applications have been added to Crowd, along with the Crowd Administration Console and the Demo Application. The new applications are:

Perform the following steps to finish the upgrade:

1. Create a database to house the data specific to the OpenID Server.
2. Point the application context to the new database. The application context for the OpenID Server is in atlassian-crowd-1.1.0/apache-tomcat-5.5.20/conf/catalina/localhost/openidserver.xml More information on how to modify this file for your particular database can be found in 2024-04-19_12-06-30_Connecting CrowdID to a Database.
3. Update the atlassian-crowd-1.1.0/crowd-openidserver-webapp/WEB-INF/classes/jdbc.properties to reflect the dialect of your database.
4. Update atlassian-crowd-1.1.0/crowd-openidserver-webapp/WEB-INF/classes/crowd.properties to use a secure password for the OpenID Server application.
5. Add the application via the Crowd Administration Console. The default name of the application is crowd-openid-server and the password is whatever you specified in crowd.properties in the previous step. For more information on how to add an application, see Adding an Application.
6. Restart the server. This should set up the OpenID Server in Crowd.
