Deploying bar file created in 7.1, onto bonita portal version 6.5

Q&A
1

Hello,

I am trying to deploy the bar file that has been created in version 7.1, on to the bonita portal that is on version 6.5. This is throwing me an error org.bonitasoft.engine.bpm.bar.InvalidBusinessArchiveFormatException: There is no bonitasoft process namespace declaration

Is this because backward compatibility won’t work with Bonita? Thank you

You’ve got it.

Backward from 7 to 6 definately does not work and is not supported.

For that matter nor is

7.2.0 to 7.1.5 nor is

7.1.5 to 7.1.4

etc.

Simply put processes may only to equal or forward, never backwards, this is because of the new features/corrected issues in each release which cannot be ported backwards.

regards
Seán

Makes sense, will it work if I re-create the flow in bonita 6.5 but import the organization made in 7.1?

Since, I did that and it is giving me error of Actor Actor Name does not contain any memeber

Thank you :slight_smile:
