Different versions one installer

Good day,

I installed the Alfresco Community 201605 GA on two machines. I am not sure if I download the installer on two separate occassions. However, I have one version of 201605 GA as Alfresco 5.1.f and the other 5.1.g. Though if I use the admin console (http://url/alfresco/service/admin), I get two different versions, being 5.2.0 (r125711-b6) and 5.1.0 (r127059-b7). Could it be that I download and EA without noticing; or did I mess up somehow significantly?

I think you downloaded two different installers:

  • - which contains Platform 5.1.f and identifies as r125711-b6
  • - which contains Platform 5.1.g and identifies as r127059-b7

The fact that we messed up somehow significantly in Platform 5.1.f by setting its Version Number as 5.2.0 probably doesn't help...

Sorry about that!

Hi,

Even with that in mind, the database tables on the two instances are different, the r125711-b6 build does not have the "avm" where as the r127059-b7 build has; which really means there was a huge naming mistake. The tables that were removed in the 5.1.f build should not have been included in the 5.2.g build i would think.

Hi

AVM has been removed in 5.0, and the avm_ tables are not created any more in 5.1 -- unless you have upgraded an older Alfresco installation, in which case the schema is upgraded, but the AVM tables will indeed remain.

You can actually check the difference between the two tags of Platform, in Subversion :

svn diff https://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/COMMUNITYTAGS/5.1.f/ https://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/COMMUNITYTAGS/5.1.g/

You will see that there are very few differences apart from setting the version.

The one difference you'll see is in the file version.properties, where the version was brought from 5.2 to 5.1, to make a bit more sense...

Hope this helps!
