That problem will only happen if the uploads.dir property is set and it should not be set unless you are migrating from Roller 4.0. However, we still have the property in the roller.properties file. So, the last fix I will make before release is to: 1) remove uploads.dir from the roller.properties file 2) clarify the text in the Install Guide that explains the need for uploads.dir at migration time Then, I'll upload new release files and start the release process, getting them on mirrors and etc. I'll hold the JBoss and Websphere files back, and make them available only in at http://people.apache.org/~snoopdave/apache-roller-5.0-experimental (dir does not exist yet) Thanks, - Dave > On 05/03/2011 07:41 AM, Anil Gangolli wrote: >> >> I did cursory testing on RC6 and encountered no issues.
