Database Upgrade scripts
------------------------

         Key: JS2-463
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-463
     Project: Jetspeed 2
        Type: Improvement
  Components: Deployment, Installer, Project Build  
    Versions: 2.1-dev, 2.0-FINAL    
    Reporter: Scott T Weaver
    Priority: Critical


Moving to the release version of Jetspeed 2, I have run into enough database 
changes to make upgrade fairly painful.

1.  The format of the PREFS_PROPERTY_VALUE was completely altered requiring 
manual migration of existing data from the old table format to the new (see the 
attached .sql file for example script to move existing prefs).

2.  The page statics system was added, not a big deal, but still was suprise 
and required digging into the logs to locate the issue.

The issue is  that on existing build systems I cannot simply wipe/recreate the 
database like I do on a local dev system and now that we have a release and 
will try to release incremental builds we should really focus on migration and 
upgrade scripts for the database.
