OK, rather than roll-back, I have changed to the "Database" search method which is working. I think the SOLR method is better/recommended/default (please correct me if I'm wrong), so it would be good to get that fixed. This should hopefully buy me some time with users until Marius (or anyone else) can have a look :) I've posted some error output from catalina.out on the bug in Jira.

Could you confirm if a roll-back requires a restore from backup or if it can be done “safely” in the UI? Thanks again.

Marius is the one who coded this part and I’m sure he’s going to check it out as soon as Monday morning. Right now I suggest you roll back to your previous version and wait for a fix.

I’ve had a look through the recent mailing list topics and nothing seems to match. · We have a custom skin based on Flamingo but the skin hasn’t picked up the new changes to the skin. I’ve tried searching for the tutorial for creating a custom skin and can’t find it. So can someone please help me with: o Link to the tutorial/documentation for creating a custom skin o The physical location on the file system where the custom skin is stored. I can’t seem to find it for some reason. · More importantly, search appears to be broken. Any help in fixing would be greatly appreciated.
