This version has been made available on the Atlassian Marketplace.

Since this is a major release, expect breaking changes!

This major update includes changes to the database tables containing projectdoc documents. The rebuild process will be started automatically by default when updating the app. Dependent on the amount of projectdoc documents on your Confluence server, this process will require quite a long time (half an hour to several hours) to complete. Although the process runs in the background, the results of queries on projectdoc documents are not reliable until the process completes successfully.

Today we released version 

Display Property
property-nameVersion
of the projectdoc Toolbox. It includes changes from version 5.0.0 to 5.0.7.

Content Marker
hidetrue

This version has been made available on the Atlassian Marketplace.

Since this is a major release, expect breaking changes!

Please read this release notes carefully prior to updating the projectdoc Toolbox!

We highly recommend to run this process on your test system to estimate the time for the rebuild of projectdoc documents on your system.

This version 5 includes a couple of changes required for data center support. Data center support is planned to be supported by the major version of the projectdoc Toolbox.

Info Box

Download the projectdoc Toolbox or visit the projectdoc Toolbox on the Atlassian Marketplace!

This version is a preparation step to support Confluence Data Center (DC). We are about to start the approval process for DC and once this process is completed, a DC version of the projectdoc Toolbox will be available on the Atlassian Marketplace. Customers with a DC configuration will then need to move to a DC license of the projectdoc Toolbox. More information on Data Center Pricing & Licensing or Collaborate without compromise on DC can be found at Atlassian.

Section
titleUpgrade Instructions

Here is a short guide to update to this new version of the projectdoc Toolbox. For detailed information on dependencies, please consult the documentation of the add-ons.

Caution Box
titleBackup first, install add-on second!

This upgrade requires an upgrade of the projectdoc tables. This upgrade will be started automatically!

Expect this to be huge. Do not install this version of the projectdoc Toobox Toolbox without a backup plan!

Info Box
titleUpgrading from an alpha Version

Upgrading from a previous alpha version (for example version 5.0.3) to the latest alpha version (for example version 5.0.69) does not require any of these steps. Simply update the app by uploading it manually to replace the 5.0.3 with the new 5.0.69.

Section
titleUpgrade Order
Caution Box
titlePlease check again!

Make sure you have a recent backup and checked the upgrade in a test environment before you continue with the following steps.

Section
titleprojectdoc Toolbox only

In case you are only using the projectdoc Toolbox without any extensions, you may install the projectdoc Toolbox and the automatic upgrade process of the projectdoc tables in your database will start automatically.

Order, when only the projectdoc Toolbox is in use (only one step):

  1. Update projectdoc Toolbox
Section
titleprojectdoc Toolbox with additional projectdoc add-ons

The projectdoc Toolbox will check that the versions of the add-ons are correct. If not, the upgrade process will be postponed. The issue will be logged at error level to the log and on each projectdoc document page online. This is the default process.

Alternatively you get full control over the process by setting the Java System system property de.smartics.projectdoc.upgrade.skip-auto to true. This will prevent the upgrade process to start. Install the projectdoc Toolbox then the extensions, unset the system property and restart the server.

For more information on updating information in the projectdoc database tables, please refer to 

Static Document Link
documentprojectdoc Rebuild Manual
, especially
Static Document Link
anchorUpgrade Task
documentprojectdoc Rebuild Manual
labelUpgrade Task
.

Please install only those add-ons that are actually used! In case you do not use any of the projectdoc extensions, there is no need to install it. (smile)

Caution Box

The migration process only starts when the projectdoc tables of version 5 are empty.

If these tables are not empty and the migration should be startet, please clear all tables of the projectdoc Toolbox with the PD5_ prefix.

It is highly recommended NOT to remove tables with the PD_ prefix until your migration process has completed successfully.

Automatic (recommended)- projectdoc Toolbox with extension and doctype add-ons:

  1. Update projectdoc Toolbox
  2. Check logs or open a projectdoc page to see if add-on updates are required
    1. update extension add-ons (start with Web API Extension)
    2. update doctype add-ons (start with Core Doctypes)

Manual - projectdoc Toolbox with extension and doctype add-ons:

  1. Set the system property when starting the JVM -Dde.smartics.projectdoc.upgrade.skip-auto=true
  2. Update projectdoc Toolbox
  3. Update extension add-ons (start with Web API Extension)
  4. Update doctype add-ons (start with Core Doctypes)
  5. Remove the system property added in step 1 -Dde.smartics.projectdoc.upgrade.skip-auto=true

Java System system property de.smartics.projectdoc.upgrade.skip-auto to true. This will prevent the upgrade process to start. Install the projectdoc Toolbox then the extensions, unset the system property and restart the server.

This is detected by the automatic upgrade process. So there is no need to start the rebuild manually if the automatic upgrade has been selected.

For complex navigation structure between projectdoc documents it may be required to run a refresh on the tables.
