Difficulty getting alfresco share3.0 to work on alfresco3.4d

[naveenalfresco]

Hi all,

We have developed sites entirely based on the structure of Alfresco share 3.0 , due to performance and 500 error issues we are migrating to alfresco 3.4.d but the problem is after migration we were not able to login to share ver 3.0. 

Steps performed:
1 . Installed Alfresco 3.4.d
2. Was able to load and work on alfresco ver 3.4.d and share ver 3.4.d
3. Connected a working site built entirely on alfresco share 3.0 to the alfresco ver 3.4.d
4. On successful start, entered username and password as "admin" but was not able to login.
5. On analysis it was found that the alfresco share ver 3.4.d structure has been changed.
6. Tried even connecting alfresco share ver 3.0 to alfresco ver 3.4.d, still was not able to login.

It would be of great help if anyone could help me out.

Thanks

The versions of Alfresco and Share have to match exactly, as they use inter-dependent APIs.

Thanks,
