Upgrade issues

[mxs57]

Hi all,

I am currently trying to upgrade our alfresco to the latest version 4.2.f. Our version is 3.4.a, I upgraded it unitl 3.4.e without issues. When I deployed the 4.2.f, I have got some erros or warning as below:

<blockquote>
INFO  [patch.impl.AVMToADMRemoteStorePatch] [AVMToADMRemoteStorePatch3] WARNING: unable to migrate path as site id cannot be found
</blockquote>

<blockquote>

I followed the method from alfresco documentation, mysql dump, backup of alf_data on restore on new version. When I am trying to access any site on new alfresco I have got the 500 error:
<blockquote>
A server error has occured
</blockquote>

I tried with "java openjdk" and "java sun jdk", it is still not working. Do you have any idea about this issue?

Best regards,

Hi,
this issue sees to be caused by a version mismatch about built classes.
What kind of JDK are you using.
Usually with Alfresco 4.2.f we use JDK 1.7 by Oracle (formerly Sun).
Try with this version and be sure you're actually using it checking your environment variables, or simply by typing with java -version command.

Regards,
Andrea

I installed the JDK 1.7 by Oracle, see below the java -version result:
<blockquote>
java version "1.7.0_60"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_60-b19)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.60-b09, mixed mode)
</blockquote>

Thanks,

Have you also performed indexes rebuild?
Moreover, did you use the installer for this new installation or simply the Alfresco binaries?
We would need more info…

Hi,

Yes I performed the index rebuild via:

index.recovery.mode=FULL

I didn't use the bin installer, I downloaded the alfresco-community-4.2.f.zip and only copied the alfresco.war and share.war into /usr/share/tomcat/webapps.

During index building I had these following messages:

Hi,

Yes I performed the indexes rebuild via directive:
<blockquote>
index.recovery.mode=FULL

When I rebuilt indexes, I had theses following messages:

I didn't use the bin installer, I just downloaded the alfresco-community-4.2.f.zip, extracted and deployed alfresco.war and share.war into tomcat webapps folder.

Thanks,
