If you have not yet upgraded to Crowd 2.3, please read the Crowd 2.3 upgrade notes before upgrading to Crowd 2.4.

Deprecation of Functionality — Roles

While roles are still present in Crowd 2.4 they are no longer supported. Roles offer no functional benefits over groups, they are essentially groups with another name. In Crowd 2.0, the namespace of groups and roles were merged so that it was not possible to have a group and role with the same name.

Upgrade Procedure

To upgrade to Crowd 2.4 from 2.3.x or earlier, please follow these upgrade instructions.
