I'll personally no longer accept them (other moderators still could).
Thanks
This said, yes this book is still a good resource to learn from, at least it's the most complete for a beginner. Even with misplaced file, using their
names you should be able to continue your journey.
Unfortunately there are no other books/references more up to date.

I'm trying to add a new DB column to a table, render it on the screen, and make
it searchable.
I was looking at the Apache OFBiz Beginner's Tutorial (Howell and Wong) but
immediately noticed that a lot of the file locations and file names in the
exercises are out of date when using it against 17.12. I managed to get about
halfway though the chapter 2 exercises, using my best guess as to which files
to edit but am concerned that the code examples may be not compatible or even
work correctly in the current OFBiz version.
Question: is this book still a good resource to learn from? Are there other
books / references out there that are more up to date?
Thank you in advance.
