1.0.23 (10/31/2024)
FLEXDEPLOY-12786 - The installer now works with newer 8.0 and 9.0 versions of the docker image. Previously it failed with error message Failed to register in JMX: [javax.naming.NamingException: Unexpected exception resolving reference [Root exception is java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "${MAX_ACTIVE_CONNECTIONS}"]
1.0.22 (10/10/2024)
FLEXDEPLOY-12825 - When you change the Java location in the installer’s config file, it now properly updates the java path in your setenvoverride.sh file.
1.0.21 (9/13/24)
FLEXDEPLOY-12704 - FlexDeploy 9.0 compatibility. FlexDeploy 9.0 must be installed with version 1.0.21 or higher. 1.0.21 also works with older versions of FlexDeploy.
1.0.20 (6/24/24)
FLEXDEPLOY-12432 - The Java Version check now works when _JAVA_OPTIONS are set.
1.0.19 (5/28/24)
FLEXDEPLOY-12312 - Resolved the 1.0.18 regression where installing with maintain set to 1 didn't start the new config files with the appropriate values.
1.0.18 (4/5/24)
FLEXDEPLOY-11883 - Resolved regression 11883 in installer 1.0.17 where the installer was requiring a JDK when a JRE may be sufficient.
FLEXDEPLOY-11617 - The installer now sets up influx more completely before starting FlexDeploy. This should reduce instances of customers upgrading and not getting influx setup because they cancel the installer before it completes.
FLEXDEPLOY-11887 - The installer no longer modifies the context or server xml files at all when maintain is set to 1. Previously, the database url, port, and password were updated, which caused issues for customers using Cyberark and other password management tools.
1.0.17 (3/12/24)
Known Issues
Installer 1.0.17 does not work with JRE. If you are using a JRE, do not use version 1.0.17.
FLEXDEPLOY-11081 - The installer now verifies that the Java version is at least 8.0.192.
FLEXDEPLOY-11236 - Add support for FlexDeploy 8.0+
Only FlexDeploy Installer 1.0.17 or later should be used with FlexDeploy 8.0+ 1.0.17 is also compatible with older FlexDeploy installs and upgrades.
The path of external jars (besides Oracle database driver jars) has changed from FLEXDEPLOY_HOME/apache-tomcat-flexdeploy/libext to FLEXDEPLOY_HOME/apiext.
This means that the update to 8.0 may require some changes to you custom CMS or ITS system code if you used a Java implementation.
1.0.16 (12/19/23)
FLEXDEPLOY-8076 - Add error handling to the oracle database backup functions so future errors should be more verbose.
1.0.15 (10/24/23)
FLEXDEPLOY-6232 - The installer now handles upgrading Postgres databases which were created to have different users instead of FD_ADMIN.
1.0.12 (8/10/23)
FLEXDEPLOY-9104 - The installer will now delete the artifacts backup file if the backup fails so that it will backup again the next time it is run. Previously the backup would be skipped on the second attempt.
1.0.11 (5/10/23)
FLEXDEPLOY-8052 - The installer will now clean up the apache-tomcat-flexdeploy/temp folder before backing up the apache-tomcat-flexdeploy folder.
1.0.10 (3/30/23)
FLEXDEPLOY-7606 - Allow using passwords with special characters for Oracle Databases. Now most special characters should work fine. The characters are not allowed Double Quote, Pipe, Forward Slash.
