If you are upgrading from a 4.2+ version, you may get the following or similar error in your log:

ERROR [redlantern.actions.apis.common.dao.hibernate.AdminManagerHibernateImpl] - Admin value: CDEPT_FORMAT from app: SB not available or threw an exception when trying to set value
org.springframework.beans.NotWritablePropertyException:
 Invalid property 'CDEPT_FORMAT' of bean class [redlantern.actions.collection.SBCollection]: Bean property 'CDEPT_FORMAT' is not writable or has an invalid setter method. Does the parameter type of the setter match the return type of the getter?

This is because an old admin value (in this case, "CDEPT_FORMAT") is no longer used. When you no longer want the error and are comfortable losing the old admin values, run the cleanup script for your current version.
