Hello,

I was using activiti 5.4 with my own vaadin explorer and mysql as db. It was working fine.

Then I decided to change to the last version (5.6). I compiled my project, deployed it on my glassfish server and started using my app. It was also working fine. BUT when I redeployed my project and tried to log in, i had the following exception:

If remove my database, create it and redeploy my project, it works again. But as soon as I deploy it for the second time, the exceptions occurs.

And if I re use version 5.4, everything is fine again.

Do you have an idea?

jbarrez

So if I understand you correct, the database upgrade is run whenever you redeploy your app?

That's definitely not what it should do: the upgrade should upgrade the database schema, and in the next redeploys the engine should see that the schema is up to date now. Can you verify what the values of the ACT_GE_PROPERTY table is? There is the current schema version saved.
