Converting Database for YouTrack UpgradeSince version 3.0, YouTrack bundles its own database, not previously used Oracle BerkleyDB JE. In order to use your previous data with the new YouTrack version, you must convert your current database to the new format.
Managing Database
YouTrack uses its own in-process database, no dedicated database server is required. By default, data files are saved to ${user.home}/teamsysdata directory.
| Important note about database accessibility Please ensure that database files are accessible from within YouTrack! The user account, which YouTrack runs under, should always have sufficient permissions to create, modify and read database files. Access to database files via network is prohibited since YouTrack in that way cannot guarantee durability of your data. |
