TIBCO BPM Enterprise (formerly TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM) 4.0, 4.1, 4.2

Description

BPM Hotfixes may include Openspace updates -- effectively a new version of the Openspace webapp.
When BPM Hotfix is applied (via TCT), the new Openspace is deployed, including default configuration files.

If you have customized the existing Openspace (e.g. for SSO and/or disabling unused locales), you will need to re-apply the changes after applying the hotfix.
 

Issue/Introduction

BPM Hotfixes which include Openspace updates will revert to default configuration. Backup any customizations (e.g. config.properties, locale.properties) before applying Hotfixes!

Environment

Any supported AMX/BPM system

Resolution

Re-applying customizations will be easier if you make external copies of any modified files prior to applying the BPM Hotfix.
It is recommended to compare/merge your customized files with the new defaults - just in case the HF introduced some new properties or default values.
