Well, anything is possible, LOL.  Having done desktop support for several years 
before I started working full-time with Remedy, I can see several potential 
sources of problems:

*         What is the recommended upgrade process and are there any steps need 
to be done manually? (Are there instructions?  Did you actually FOLLOW said 
instructions?  If you relied on memory instead, did you remember correctly?)

*         Functional changes associated with the update that BMC needs to 
address.

*         Differences in recommended upgrade processes - maybe Apache has one 
while BMC recommends something slightly different, in which case, who you 
listen to can determine whether you have problems or not.

*         Corrupted download.  Installs, but does not work correctly.

But yes, someone who has bravely stepped out onto the bleeding edge and 
attempted this update is going to be in the best position to speak to any 
pitfalls!

Just out of curiosity.  I periodically see notes in my Tomcat log that tells me 
that the ecache (caching mechanism used by Mid-Tier) is out of date, and a new 
version is available....

Has anyone ever upgrade ecache?....is it possible, does it break Mid-Tier?

Thanks Natalie,

I should have mentioned flushing the mid-tier cache and user's browser cache 
does seem to clear it up. This isn't the first rodeo for us either with this 
occurring.
Just looking for some sort of least disruptive recovery during the middle of 
the day.

Thanks again
Rod

Rod:

We are on ITSM 7.6.04 SP2 and also run Best Practices view in Incident 
Management.  I can tell you that we have definitely seen the behavior you show 
in your screenshot, although only once that I can remember.  There are actually 
other weird things that we see more often.

As I was not the one who had to resolve the issue, I unfortunately don't 
remember what the fix was.  I'd probably try some of the standard things like 
flushing the mid-tier cache, then clearing the cache on the user's browser and 
trying again.

Good luck!

We're on ARS 7.6.04 SP4, Mid-Tier 7.6.04 SP4. Our customers are on IE8 and IE9.

Running the Best Practice View of the Incident form our customers randomly see 
fields that appear to move on top of other fields or hidden fields become 
visible or field just disappear.
Has anyone experienced this type of behavior?

I have attached one screenshot.
