Hi Damian,
I presume you said yes to the delete templates because not 0.6 compatible
question during the upgrade process?
I don't remember anymore - I expect I just accepted whatever
defaults I was offered. Should I have said "no" to this question?
I can easily reinstate the old 0.5 meta* tables.
let us review our update strategy again - not sure our software is doing
the right thing here
I just tried to do an "Update all" for the datasets that got
converted from 0.5 to 0.6, to see if I could get back all
the attributes and filters that I had hidden, but I got
a null-pointer exception from marteditor and it didn't
perform the update.
ok - something got seriously messed up on the 0.5 to 0.6 conversion. Think
we need to start from scratch and try and work out exactly what went wrong
plus the biomart group needs to work out if we should be deleting and
regenerating the existing template or just transforming it. Hold off till
tomorrow is prob the best advice - we may have a fix by then
Cheers,
David.
