Strange behaviour "Product builder" after upgrade to R1 CU5

Hi everyone,

I have upgraded our test environment to CU5. All works fine. This week I planned to upgrade our production environment when a collegue of mine saw that the productbuilder missed a field.

I checked, and all seemed to be correct. So I thought: let's recompile. When I recompile, trouble begins. It compiles fine: No compile errors were found, only gives an error "subknooppunt bestaat al", which is Dutch and means something like "sub node already exists".

From that moment on, the client language changes back to Dutch (it was English before). Also the product is not compiled.

When I make a new product model, and import the settings of the old product model, it compiles fine without errors. It seems there is a problem with the upgrading of the old cu2 base model.

Anyone has a clue why this strange behaviour happens and how I can resolve it for my first product model?

I am not sure if it is wise to continue with the upgrade of our production environment based on this experience.

Ok, it took me a few hours but I solved the issue. Actually what the error ment was that it found some forms/classes that where already there.

First I compared the adjusted PBA classes to the sys layer. There was no code added that could explain these problems. Then I removed the USR layer of the PBAex classes. Tried to compile again without success.

Then I checked the forms: that was it! The product builder generated forms were present in the CUS layer... I removed the two forms PBAex from the CUS layer, removed the classes again, and recompiled in the USR layer: Works like a charm! Also the missing field returned.

Of course this does not explain the change of language... let's just say that there will be a hotfix somewhere to be found...

Our upgrade is still a go this Easter!

Hope it helps someone.

Kind regards, Willem.
