I have to install the latest patch p3 of IdentityIQ 8.2 version but, following the installation instructions, first I have to remove the e-fixes installed, IIQPB-1066 and IIQCB-4610, and I have a doubt about it.
In the e-fixes instructions, is reported the following:
“Once you apply any later patch containing these fixes, the files in WEB-INF/classes included in this e-fix must be removed from your IdentityIQ installation; otherwise, undesired behavior may occur.”
It means that I have to remove only the files in the WEB-INF/classes related to the e-fixes and I haven’t to remove any other files, always related to the e-fixes, positioned in other directories of the IdentityIQ installation?
You only remove the files which were added when you applied the E-Fix. When you receive an E-Fix these are documented in the E-Fix instructions, or you may refer to the Read Me file for the E-Fix for additional information.
Often the E-Fix contains files that are not normally present in an installation, but when you upgrade to a version past that E-Fix version, the class files are included in the base installation for that version or release, but are likely in a different location. As a result, if you do not remove the E-Fix from the installation, this can cause issues with the “old” class files being loaded instead of the ones included in the new version/release.
