Migration from 4.2.c to 5.1.g Community

joko71

I'm having a problem with migration on my Win-32 XP Professional VM machine. Server is JBoss 5.1.0 GA with Java 7 JDK and DB is MySQL 5.5.28.
We haven't used Solr in 4.2.c.

I was kinda expecting that upgrade from 4.2.c to 5.1.g will go pretty smooth.

In server.log the first strange occurence was the loop of these lines repeating:

[domain.schema.SchemaBootstrap] Schema validation found 48 potential problems, results written to: C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\Alfresco\Alfresco-MySQLInnoDBDialect-Validation-Pre-Upgrade-act_-1323738560616869338.txt

And then, after a not so small number of iterations, it gave up with the message in the log:

Dumped difference files and verbose server log are in the attachment.

I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone encountered this loop behavior in upgrade and why that happens?

Here's also my repository.properties file from VM, maybe something in it is causing the behavior.

It means that Alfresco cannot upgrade database schema. Try upgrading to 4.2.f or 5.0.d instead of targeting directly 5.1.g

joko71

I tried with 5.0.d first. I've got the same thing as with 5.1.g, the upgrade enters into endless loop. Dissapointing, after so many setuping. Next chance is 4.2.f. 😕

Here's my latest repository properties file, just in case someone notices something wrong.

I really hoped this upgrade path would work, but no, the same endless loop happens with upgrade attempts to 5.1.g, 5.0.d, and 4.2.f. The last one is surprising to me because our 4.2.c current version is not too far.

Maybe our upgrade past is the problem? It goes like this:

2.1 –> 3.2 –> 3.4.d –> 4.0.d –> 4.2.c

(2.1, 3.2 and 4.2.c were/are working versions, others were just temporaries on upgrade path)

I can try to upgrade it to 4.2.d or 4.2.e and see what will happen, but I'm worried if we're blocked by someting in further upgrades. 😕

angelborroy

We have tested these paths: http://www.keensoft.es/en/alfresco-upgrade-paths-for-community-edition/

Hope it helps.

It seems I solved the problem.

I've found the solution by accident on this page: https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Schema_Upgrade_Scripts

Quote:

<blockquote>
The following properties control the generation and execution of SQL statements to modify the Alfresco schema and data (defaults shown):
db.schema.update=true
db.schema.update.lockRetryCount=24
db.schema.update.lockRetryWaitSeconds=5
db.schema.update=true:

When this is off, Alfresco will not generate or execute any SQL statements. This can be used to completely avoid any metadata queries between upgrades.

db.schema.update.lockRetryCount and db.schema.update.lockRetryWaitSeconds:
If schema updates are on and some modifying SQL has been generated, then the system attempts to get a lock against the database by creating a lock table alf_bootstrap_lock. If the table already exists, the system will wait and repeat the process of metadata examination and script generation. If the lock table cannot be created after all the retry attempts have been exhausted, the system will post a message and exit:
</blockquote>

So, if there is in Alfresco DB lock table, Alfresco will try to perform update defined number of time in a loop, then exit.

For some reason, I had alf_bootstrap_lock table in my Alfresco development DB which I used on my VM. When droppped, 4.2.c –> 4.2.f –> 5.0.d upgrades went just fine. Upgrade 5.0.d –> 5.1.g seems OK, but JBoss stops or freezes when Alfresco WAR is started. Probably is something wrong in web.xml or libraries.

joko71

As I said in previous post, I have a new problem. It seems upgrade is finished, but JBoss stops or freezes when Alfresco WAR is started. I tried to tinker with repository.properties and web.xml but nothing.

Alfresco 5.1.g has different structure than before, that's obvious. I don't know where to look next. One of the changed files is jboss-web.xml. I tried to use it like this:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
