As far as I know, there are a few reports about issues with upgrading user accounts \
from 0.6.x to 0.7. You may find the discussion in Mantis #4875 \
(http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=4875) interesting where a routine is \
described for forcing the update of user accounts. Basically, it consists of manually \
resetting the "Migrations" table entries for "UserAccount" or "AuthStore", removing \
those tables and thus forcing OpenSim to rebuild the new tables from the old "users" \
table on startup. If you want to try this, then make sure to only reset one table \
between restarts of OpenSim and never both at the same time.
