New Version does not allow special characters in DB passwords

@Olivier
Thanks for your response. I made a snapshot of my production VM this time (earlier I had just copied over the .vols folder to a new VM, which used to work).

I managed to get through the setup process, but now I’m getting these errors inside the kobocat container and it keeps restarting. It seems to be related to changes in the DB structure. Any tips on getting through this?

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
