[xwiki-users] oddity after upgrade from 7.4.1 to 7.4.2
Ubuntu 14.04 with xwiki installed from xwiki repo after apt-getupdate and apt-get dist-upgrade and a reboot, ran through the distribution wizard on first login, no errors seen, but the front page looked like http://pasteboard.co/1ZhrOEed.png I followed "The wizard fails to appear at startup" on http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/DistributionWizard and deleted the .../jobs/status/distribution/status.xml file, then restarted, the distribution wizard was not seen, but the "pages" are now working again Cheers
I did the same exact same thing as you yesterday (on the same system) and it went well for me. Are you sure you were connected with a user having admin right ? On Thu, Mar 3, 2016 at 12:04 PM, shouldbe q931 <[email protected]> wrote:

Absolutely positively an admin user within xwiki :-) I had missed something from my first post, after seeing the "Pages" missing I did try a couple of reboots* but there was no change, it was only after I removed the .../jobs/status/distribution/status.xml file and rebooted that it appeared. I wonder if I might have misclicked something at the end of the distribution wizard, but as the distribution wizard didn't show after that reboot, I'm not sure... * I'm quite aware I only needed to restart tomcat, but as I'm the only user, and its a VM that boots in ~5 seconds... Cheers
Ok I understood from your first mail that the DW was not showing up even after you delete the DW status. Maybe you clicked by mistake the "never" button (which disable DW until next upgrade) instead of "continue" or something like this. If you have kept the distribution status from that time you should see in it if the step was completed or canceled. On Fri, Mar 4, 2016 at 8:56 AM, shouldbe q931 <[email protected]> wrote:

Apologies, I think I have not been adequately clear the complete sequence was as follows sudo apt-get update && apt-get update reboot DW runs and appears to complete, but "Pages" is empty rebooted DW does not run, "Pages" is still empty rebooted DW does not run, "Pages" is still empty renamed .../jobs/status/distribution/status.xml to status.xml.old rebooted DW does not run, "Pages" now shows the renamed status.xml has contents as per http://pastebin.com/HW4WjFR1 apart from the timestamps, the old version contains <previousDistributionExtension> <id>org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-web</id> <version class="org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion" serialization="custom"> <org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion> <string>7.4.2</string> </org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion> </version> </previousDistributionExtension> <previousDistributionExtensionUi> <id>org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-ui-mainwiki</id> <version class="org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion" reference="../../previousDistributionExtension/version"/> </previousDistributionExtensionUi> this does not appear in the current status.xml Cheers

the complete sequence was as follows
sudo apt-get update && apt-get update reboot DW runs and appears to complete, but "Pages" is empty rebooted DW does not run, "Pages" is still empty rebooted DW does not run, "Pages" is still empty renamed .../jobs/status/distribution/status.xml to status.xml.old rebooted DW does not run, "Pages" now shows
the renamed status.xml has contents as per http://pastebin.com/HW4WjFR1
apart from the timestamps, the old version contains
<previousDistributionExtension> <id>org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-web</id> <version class="org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion" serialization="custom"> <org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion> <string>7.4.2</string> </org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion> </version> </previousDistributionExtension> <previousDistributionExtensionUi> <id>org.xwiki.enterprise:xwiki-enterprise-ui-mainwiki</id> <version class="org.xwiki.extension.version.internal.DefaultVersion" reference="../../previousDistributionExtension/version"/> </previousDistributionExtensionUi>
This looks like the status after you deleted it since otherwise you would have 7.4.1 as previous version (that's what I have on my side for example).
this does not appear in the current status.xml
