Hi,

I note in the release notes mention of https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/c/gerrit/+/334325 - and that due to this there’s no clean downgrade if issues arise.


Any one spotted any issues upgrading at all?   Or successful updates yet?

Smoothly upgraded without problems!

Already loving that updated lit.dev based UI!

I have to say that the above is just copying to the new labels format for Gerrit v3.7, but the v3.6 was supporting both old and new.
So, I believe I’ll amend the release notes saying that downgrading to v3.6 *will be supported*.

No, but I have to say that I haven’t upgraded GerritHub.io yet :-(

Hi I just noticed that after upgraded to 3.7.0 there's some problem with Jenkins via the Jenkins-Gerrit plugin. This might not be the issue on Gerrit side, but to workaround the issue ASAP my only viable option now is to downgrade Gerrit to 3.6. So from what you have mentioned, this will be feasible? And if yes, is there a official downgrade instruction somewhere I can follow? Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Kai

Any estimate when the docker image will be tagged and when a docker stable-3.7.0 branch will be available?

Could you take a look of this and kindly let me know if there is a way to downgrade fro 3.7 to 3.6?

Thanks,
Kai

I haven’t finalised yet the downgrade instructions for Gerrit v3.7 to v3.6.

I am going to give you hints here on how it will look like:
1. Look at [1] for the instructions on how v3.3 was downgraded to v3.2 (note that you would need to use the v3.6 schema version in your case)
2. Perform an offline reindex

I’ll post on this thread as soon as I’ll have uploaded the instructions for v3.7.

Luca.




Thanks,
Kai

Thanks Luca.

I just read that v3.3 downgrade guide and used these commands:

1. Stop Gerrit 3.7.0 service.
2. For All-Projects.git: git update-ref refs/meta/version $(echo -n 184|git hash-object --stdin)
3. For All-Users.git: git update-ref HEAD HEAD
4. java -jar gerrit-3.6.3.war init -d site
5. java -jar gerrit-3.6.3.war reindex -d site

Then I get these during reindex:

I renamed the site/index dir and the reindex procedure can finish without problem. Gerrit 3.6.3 can start now. Thanks!

Glad you managed to finalise the downgrade.
I’ve added the downgrade instructions for review at [2], would you like to review them?

Thanks.

Luca.
