Upgrade Issues with hst:configurations not loading

[jimmy...@gmail.com]

With every upgrade to Hippo 10, that we have done, we have seen this recurring issue.  When we boot the server after upgrading to 10, none of the existing hst:configurations are loaded; a new hst:default is loaded. In the past, we have had to remove all the references in the hippoecm-extension.xml and the hst/configurations.xml files to any existing hst configurations.  Then we boot the server, and we get again only the hst:default node.  Then we import known good hst configurations, with auto-export enabled.  We see the files being created by the import and committing the changes.  Then we shut the server down again, rebuild, and start the server with "mvn -P cargo.run". 

The result is that we keep getting the same path errors for all non-default hst configs:

Failed to process initialize item <CUSTOMER>-hst-hst-hst-configurations-common-hst-abstractpages: javax.jcr.PathNotFoundException: /hst:hst/hst:configurations/common

If the auto-export created files, why cannot the server bootstrap see it?

Thanks,

-Jimmy

Hey Jimmy,

I suspect you do not have a bootstrap file that actually creates the
node '/hst:hst/hst:configurations/common'. Most likely, you have
however bootstrap files that want to add nodes below
'/hst:hst/hst:configurations/common'. Thus, make sure that you check
that you have a bootstrap file that creates 'common'. If you have one,
then most likely its 'hippo:sequence' number is higher than the
bootstrap files that create child nodes below 'common'.
