Are you removing the contents of Tomcat/work when installing the new
templates ?
Also how are you deploying the templates ?

Hello all,
We’ve been experiencing some strange (show-stopper) behavior deploying
new templates to an existing Jahia installation. The installation in
question has been through a fair amount of reworking, namely, new
templates deployed and the SQL datastore (mysql) overwritten with
snapshots from another server. The theory is that with the templates,
bigtext content, and appropriate tables in the database, the
installation should mirror the server we took the snapshot from. Is
this correct?
The problem is that we put a new template into the server, and after
adding 3 entries into the first container (list) the fourth fails
every time with differing exceptions – sometimes a ClassCastException
casting to SmallText, other times a duplicate key exception. Doing a
clean installation of Jahia and carefully re-creating the content
seems to have solved the problem and the template works fine. So, how
would a duplicate key exception come about? I know that there were
some old bigtext content files that weren’t related to anything in
that installation – it was legacy data from a previous build – would
this affect the system at all?
I can supply more details (like the template) if you like, although
the specifics don’t seem relevant to this particular situation – once
Jahia is tangled up it doesn’t matter what template you put in – it
fails with random errors.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
-Greg
