I made a copy of our production instance of Ebase today and went through the process of upgrading it to Ebase 5.
When you start the server for the first time after setting upgrade=true in UFSSetup.properties, Ebase will refactor all of the resources and make all of the associations between resources and lists with the form that they belong to.
I wanted to let you know that the refactoring bug that I previously experienced when I attempted to upgrade to Ebase 5 a few weeks ago is still there and has the same behavior where one of my applications crashed on load because a database resource was not associated with the form and had to be manually re-added.
I am in the process of testing out our production applications and will update this post if I find any more refactoring bugs.
Please see if you guys can look into this so that the refactoring doesn't miss this kind of thing.

Jon,
I ran into more issues that related to refactoring.
I had at least 3 forms that contained grids which generated an error.
When loading the form, an error would appear which stated that the control gridcell1_2 (The actual control name varies by the grid obviously) is duplicated. I was able to fix this by going to the grid and finding the cell in question and renaming it to something like gridcell1_99 for example and that took care of this problem. I did not see any obvious duplicate grid cell names by glancing at the grid.
Another major issue that I have found is the way that table resources are mapped to fields. One of my table resources was mapped completely incorrectly (which I verified by going to the resources tab, clicking on the table and selecting the "show mappings for resource" icon. My resource was associated with form fields instead of the database resource which had to be manually fixed.I have found 2 cases of this so far.

Segi,
We haven't seen any of these problems before. Do you think you could export the forms that are affected from a V4 system (assuming that you still have this) together with any associated elements and send it to support@ebasetech.com. A brief note of where the problems occur would also help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Jon

Jon,
I have another urgent problem with a database resource and I don't know why its happening.
One of my forms calls fetchTable() on a multi row DB resource and it is throwing a NullPointerException. This resource worked perfectly in Ebase 4.
The resource is defined like this:
Here is the output from the log

Another refactoring bug to report.
I was getting an error on one of my forms that a table is not backed by a resource.
When I go to the table, the resource field for that table is blank and needs to be manually re-assigned to the database resource. Not a big deal to fix but thought that I would let you guys know.
