Could it be that I need to specify the path to the node?

He's looking for the file @ workspace://lightWeightVersionStore/39e90565-836c-41bc-b033-259d209b9615 which seems odd.

And in the example, he also specifies the path afaik:

VersionHistory versionHistory = WebServiceFactory.getAuthoringService().getVersionHistory(ReferenceFactory.newReference(uuid, nodePath));

apparently, the right way to create a version store was like this:

private static Store _versionStore = new Store(Constants.WORKSPACE_STORE, "version2Store");‍

that works and makes it possible to read content and metadata from versioned documents just like regular documents.

EDIT: Apparently my test-environment and my production environment have some differences.

on test it was:

private static Store _versionStore = new Store(Constants.WORKSPACE_STORE, "version2Store");‍

but in production it had to be

private static Store _versionStore = new Store("versionStore", "lightWeightVersionStore");‍
