Solution Import - Overwrite Customizations option not appearing?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 125

Hello,

I am importing an unmanaged solution version 2020.02.18.3 into a target environment that contains the same solution but it's version is 2020.02.06.1

It should recognize this as an update and give me the below options:

 This page will display a yellow bar saying This solution package contains an update for a solution that is already installed.

  • Maintain customizations (recommended) Selecting this option will maintain any unmanaged customizations performed on components but also implies that some of the updates included in this solution will not take effect.
  • Overwrite Customizations Selecting this option overwrites any unmanaged customizations previously performed on components included in this solution. All updates included in this solution will take effect.

I don't have any of those options and I need to overwrite the customizations.

Has anybody ran into this before and how have you addressed it? I've always had those options appear before when I was importing a new version of the same solution. 

Thanks,

    You can't overwrite customisations for unmanaged solutions.

    Hi Haris,

    We didn't experience this issue before, usually if solution name is same then customization selection option should be available. Please note that this option seems to be for only managed solutions. We have verified in our local environment and for unmanaged solutions there is no option but for managed solutions, it is working as expected. 

    Best Regards,
