After upgrading from 3.10 to 4.0.0, some of user groups have changed the order, so users were automatically moved to another group. This is very annoying, since I can’t move them back to the correct group - OF moves them to the 1st group automatically after logging in. Is it possible to fix that?
A fix that should fix this issue has been applied to both the master branch (which will be the source for a future 4.1.0 release) as well as the 4.0 branch (which will be the source for the 4.0.1 release). In approximately two hours, our nightly builds should be updated with a version that includes this fix. For the impatient: try downloading an update straight from our build server.
As a totally unsupported upgrade mechanism, which causes kittens to be killed whenever you use it (seriously, backup & don’t do this with anything important): try replacing the openfire.jar file from your installation with the one from the nightly (it’s probably best to shut down Openfire before you do this).
Guus, I’ve just copied openfire.jar from the latest zip (openfire_2016-01-25.zip) over the one in /opt/openfire/lib and restarted Openfire. Nothing has changed: the group order is still incorrect. Is there anything else to try?
Hello. 4.1.1 is already released, but the issue is still in place. We can’t upgrade from 3.10.3 since users are being messed up. Can you please force fixing this issue?
This ticket is not closed and there is no “Fix Version” attached, so it is obvious it is the same in 4.1.1 as nobody has provided a fix for this yet. You can’t force anything, this is an Open Source project driven by volunteers only. Anyone can provide patches and contribute.
P.S. such discussion shouldn’t take place in the JIRA, this is not useful for ticket itself.
