My organization is currently running openmrs 1.9.9. I tried the upgrade to 2.0.5 on my VMware, I followed the guide from this link https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Upgrading+OpenMRS, but in addition I upgraded from openjdk 6 to 8, then I undeploy the old war file and deployed the new war file and restarted tomcat6.
When I enter the url http://localhost:8080/openmrs/ I get the error message:
HTTP Status 503 - This application is not currently available
I checked the tomcat6 web application manager/html, the openmrs application was NOT on the list of other tomcat applications.
Thanks Dan, it is good to have someone like in the community, even though
the issue is not yet resolve I feel happy that someone is helping me out.
Now, I did install Java 8 you can see it in the attached image a1, but I
also notice that at the bottom of the tomcat web application manager it is
showing 1.6.0_41-b41 as JVM version as shown in image a6.
I also try to deploy the war file again but I get “FAIL - War file
“openmrs.war” already exists on server” which it true as you can see in
images a4 and a5.
by the way I am using tomcat6 and I did not remove openjdk 6, does it
really matter?
I think it may be easier for you to just uninstall tomcat 6, then install tomcat 7 and have it point to Java 8
After which you will paste the war file in the tomcat webapps folder and restart tomcat.
Ok, I purge all of openjdk-6-jdk and tomcat6, then install openjdk-8-jdk
and tomcat7. All went well until I got to the stage of deploying openmrs
over an existing database and I get the error
There was an error while updating the database to the latest. file:
liquibase-update-to-latest.xml. Error: Migration failed for change set
liquibase-update-to-latest.xml::201401101647-TRUNK-4187::wyclif: Reason:

Please I will appreciate if we can continue this discussion on my official
email, thus forward your reply to dudanwojo@msh.org and copy cchukwu@msh.org,
my supervisor’s email address. He want to see what I am doing about
resolving this issue and also for documentation purpose in the future.
We generally discourage private conversations for such things that could benefit others who may face similar problems. You could ask them to join openmrs talk and watch this thread.
