Upgrade from 2.x issue for SessionMethods installed for users other than DataCurator

Session Methods are expected to be in the UserGlobals of DataCurator; if they are installed for users other than DataCurator, they are not handled correctly during upgrade.

Session Methods are an undocumented feature allowing session-specific methods to be installed.  It is particularly used in the GLASS/Seaside/GsDevKit environment.

Workaround

Executing the following code allows the upgrade to complete.

You must edit to specify the user name for the user in whose UserGlobals the session methods are installed, and to provide the password for SystemUser (for security, this should never be swordfish).  Execute using topaz prior to upgrade.

set user SystemUser pass swordfish
login

run
 "Disable session methods to prevent executing methods that need recompile"
