[jira] [Commented] (OAK-5112) oak-upgrade breaking versionStorage node when started with copy-versions=false

["Hans-Peter Stoerr (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-5112?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17508960#comment-17508960 ] 

Hans-Peter Stoerr commented on OAK-5112:
----------------------------------------

Oops - I just stumbled over this because I found the message "The version storage on destination already exists. Orphaned version histories will be skipped." in the log. This means it's currently absolutely impossible to copy orphaned versions into a repository that already has version storage, right? I find that very unfortunate, since I wanted to migrate something into a new repository, where orphaned versions are important, too. :(  (They are not referenced by versionables, but are referenced through other properties in an archive.)

> The attempt to sidegrade a repository and only keep the versionStorage of certain paths failed with a broken /jcr:system/jcr:versionStorage node when applying the following sequence:
> {code}
> java -jar oak-upgrade-1.6-SNAPSHOT.jar repository repository-temp  --copy-versions=false
> java -jar oak-upgrade-1.6-SNAPSHOT.jar repository repository-temp  --copy-versions=true --include-paths=/path/requiring/versions
> {code}
> After first and second attempt the versionStorage node exists but has no primaryType. Startup works but fails when ever new nodes would be created underneath jcr:versionStorage.
> The issue can be checked via oak-run console and running the following command
> {code}
> session.store.root.builder().getChildNode('jcr:system').getChildNode('jcr:versionStorage').getProperties()
> {code}
