Upgrade Woes...

I clicked the "Ok" button today to upgrade the OpenEdit editor and I now get this when attempting to login:

The administrator has received a copy of this error.

Did the webapp reload ok? Make sure it reloaded. If that does not fix it please list your jar files in WEB-INF/lib/

The webapp is running (www.tmmaa.com). I just can't login to do edits/maintenance.

James Carman Wed, Jun 25, 9:37 AM

Thats odd. Looks like your users are missing. Make sure there is a good /WEB-INF/users/* folder.

Christopher Burkey (OpenEdit) Wed, Jun 25, 9:43 AM

What about the "Could not find bean named TabModule"? Should I maybe have upgraded "core" first?

The users directory looks okay to me:

Oh ok.

The editor upgrade will automatically upgrade the core as well.

Did you restart the web site after the upgrade? Make sure Tomcat really does stop when you stop it.

Christopher Burkey (OpenEdit) Wed, Jun 25, 10:04 AM

Make sure there are no duplicate JARs as well - that could cause this if it's loading an older jar from the lib dir. This is a common problem on windows boxes.
