["Alex Karasulu (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-830?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Alex Karasulu closed DIRSERVER-830.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Committed in revision 506868 for 1.0 branch:
    http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=506868
Committed revision 506870.
    http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=506870

This fixes the overwrite problem.  Also it seems inno installer offers your last installation directory which in this case was c:\Program Files\apacheds-1.0.0 when you already have it on disk rather than offering c:\Program Files\apacheds-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.

I guess this might be because of the minor version? Don't really know.  However if you uninstall the old installtion directory the generated installer offers up the correct directory to install 1.0.1 in.  I really don't like this behavior but I cannot find a way to prevent it.

For now we have a way to prevent the overwrite issue which is what this JIRA is about.

> When I used the 1.0.1 snapshot installer to upgrade 1.0.0, it overwrites my configuration file (and maybe some other stuff it shouldn't???).  I am not sure everything that get overwritten because I just wiped out my test install and installed fresh.
