Dear Jaques, thanks for your answer.
I double-checked: In fact my sources are based on a 12.04 checkout from around Oktober 13, not an 11.04. So my 12.04 checkout did not contain the patch mentioned. I applied the patch and had recognizable progress. I found further bugs, but no more showstoppers as to now. I would like to report my findings, but as we have seen, I do not measure from the correct baseline; so my problems may be only mine, greatly irrellevant to ofbiz. As I am trying to find a base for deployment, I am reluctant to go for trunk, as the baseline for testing could vanish randomly every day. So I went for 12.04 in 08.2013, because it looked more stable than 13.xx then. I would also not be comfortable with randomly updating my production environment with trunk checkouts. I do not yet fully understand the development/configuration/release model of ofbiz, please allow me to ask: Are there labels for 12.04.01, 12.04.02, 12.04.03, 12.04.04? (I observed o "voting" for 12.04.03. What is it about?) How can I reproduce these releases? I only find labels like "12.04" at github. Which up-to-date label would you recommend as a base for end to end tests and following production deployment after fixes? Basically...maybe I lost it: do you even plan on "freezing" a release, or is a "release" just a snapshot from trunk? Is a release based on a defined feature set, that is patched up after release until stable? What is the difference between 12.04.xx and 13.xx.xx? Is the data model stable or compatible in 12.xx? On release update steps must I plan for full blown data migration?
