10.15 testing question

Hi Rick,

The last test that I want to run on the 10.15 release is to try
upgrading a couple of relatively old databases that I happen to have
hanging around.

But I keep bumping into that restriction check that disallows
upgrading to a non-production release.

Can you remind me how I work around this in order to test the upgrade
with the release candidate?

thanks,

bryan

Thanks Rick!

I have no idea what I was doing wrong before. Certainly just a pilot
error on my part.

At any rate, I am having no troubles open and upgrading my database
with 10.15.1.3.

Thanks for getting me back on track.

Hey Bryan,

Just want to confirm that you can upgrade to 10.15.1.3 WITHOUT that 
flag. I can upgrade old databases without setting the flag. If you 
can't, then I'd be interested in understanding the experiment you are 
running: clearly something would have to be wrong.

In any event, here's the property which disables the "don't upgrade to 
an alpha version database" behavior:

   -Dderby.database.allowPreReleaseUpgrade=true

Hope I understood your question correctly.

Thanks,
-Rick
