Error description

• Synergy 7.1 Upgrade Instructions Guide or UNIX.pdf mentions on

  10. Merge notify customizations.
  After you have used these Upgrade Instructions to upgrade a
  database from
  Release 6.4, 6.5, or 7.0 to Release 7.1, you have two notify
  directories
  under that database. To complete the upgrade, you must reapply
  the changes
  you made in your previous release to the new
  database_path/notify
  directory. Your previous notify directory was saved in
  database_path/oldnotify.

  10. Merge notify customizations.
  After you have used these Upgrade Instructions to upgrade a
  database from
  Release 6.4, 6.5, or 7.0 to Release 7.1, you have two notify
  directories
  under that database. To complete the upgrade, you must reapply
  the changes
  you made in your previous release to the new
  database_path/notify
  directory. Your previous notify directory was saved in
  database_path/oldnotify.
  
  
  Caution You must merge these files with the Release 7.1
  versions,
  not just copy back your saved versions. It is very
  important that you do this merge if you use Rational
  Change, because it requires modified notify scripts.
  ====
  
  
  Note: The wrong path is indicated:
  
  
  database_path/notify and database_path/oldnotify instead of
  
  database_path/lib/notify and database_path/lib/oldnotify
