Downgrading Kantega SSO Enterprise to the previous version
- Elias Brattli Sørensen
Normally, an app update has no effects on the configuration saved, and the only change that occurs is that new app code is deployed to your system.
This means that uninstalling the current version of Kantega SSO Enterprise and installing the previous version is unproblematic.
Platform 7: newer versions need a system parameter set
If you need to downgrade on a newer product running platform 7, like Confluence 9, Jira 10, Bitbucket 9 or Bamboo 10, then file upload on UPM has been disabled by default. To re-enable file upload, set stop the product, set the following JVM startup parameter and restart: -Dupm.plugin.upload.enabled=true
You simply have to follow these steps:
1. Click uninstall under Kantega SSO Enterprise in Manage apps (in our example a dev version, 6.7.1 SNAPSHOT):
2. Refresh the page, and see that Kantega SSO is uninstalled:
3. Upload the version to downgrade to with Upload app (in our example the prevous stable version, 6.6.3):
4. And you are all set with the prevous version running!
Restore a backup
If you took a backup / snapshot of config before updating, and you updated to a version with breaking changes, you should restore the backup that was taken prior to updating the add-on. This restore has to be done on the same add-on version as the backup was taken with.
