Migration to 12.0.21 losing data #71

Closed Trebia closed 8 years ago

Trebia commented 8 years ago

I have just migrated to version 12.0.21. I have found that equipment is now having from one side the options of required/maximal and black/red,

I was having all my previous equipments set to "maximal", so in the new version ideally should be "maximal" and "black", however I found that all the previous equipments setting were lost.

It seems some problem recognizing the previous setting data from 12.0.20

If secondary options are added, it is not possible to retain the options. This is a one-time issue. I even intend to make sure none of the options carry over. Yes, having the same options would be idealistic, however, problematic if something in the script goes wrong. I just want to make sure you start with a black page again so that you don't accidentally have set a certain option on a subdivision you definitely do not want.

Um... is complicated to make, as in order to fix the issue you will need to develop an algorithm that double checks the previous material and makes a migration. Is more a design issue.

I would suggest to indicate this potential issues in the release notes... I think is better to keep the script as simple as possible.

Thanks for the job!
