Dear Magnolians, dear Samuel
We're trying to migrate a Magnolia 4.4.9 EE installation to 4.5.7, and (as
expected) it's still a bumpy ride. Since I'm expecting many more bumps to come
I called this thread "Migration Troubles I", giving me room for II, III etc. :-/
We've tried to follow the documentation [1] to the letter, although not easy
all the time:
- We've updated our code which now compiles fine with Magnolia 4.5.7 (step 3
[2])
- Strange enough although we did remove the taglib dependencies they
still end up in our webapp (but that's not really a show stopper)
- We also removed the dependency to magnolia-module-templating, but
still find magnolia-module-templating-4.5.7.jar in the webapp (again no biggie)
- We've also updated the security in the webapp and repository and the node
types (step 4 [3])
- The single line documentation to "Update the node types" leave a lot
of room for interpretation even with the additional info in the link. We
reckoned that we had to add the new node types to the custom_nodetypes.xml
file, right? Copied them from a plain vanilla 4.5.7 installation... hoping we
did the right thing.
- Went on to step 5 to restart
- The documentation [4] would make you believe that after completing
step 4 you should be able to start up Magnolia and the migration tasks in the
version handler should kick in.
- The Update process actually does take quite some time, but then fails
with:
"Could not install or update magnolia-4-5-migration module.
Task 'Trigger migration scripts' failed. (IOException: Can't find resource file
at /scripts/migration/from4_4To4_5/ConfiguredMigration.groovy)"
and
"Could not install or update inplace-templating module. Task ''
failed. (IOException: Can't find resource to bootstrap at
src/main/resources/info/magnolia/module/inplacetemplating/setup/config.modules.observation.config.listenerConfigurations.versionResourceOnChange.xml)"
The migration module is 1.3-SNAPSHOT. Should we try with 1.2 or are we missing
something else?
Thanks for helping us clear things up!
