GroupWise 18.3 upgrade - success or fail

[Rimser]

I have upgraded the first environments to GroupWise 18.3. My own has been upgraded almost a month ago, some others I have upgraded a week ago - the last one - a large one - 30 minutes ago.

I did not have any troubles - GroupWise troubles. If hard discs are out of disc space, it  is not GroupWise related 😎!

Do not forget that you can still stay on WebAccess 18.2.1 because you need features which the new web client cannot offer now.

How are your experiences? How are your impressions?

OK? I stayed on 18.2.1 Webaccess. But it works. And for the happy few I use the nieuw webclient, latest build  - without signatures ;( . This works as designed.

The GroupWise client 18.3 does not have any problems. I have tested webaccess, client and new webclient behind Advanced Authentication. That works very well!

Xmas holidays and New Year are perfect to upgrade or change systems. I upgraded a lot of GW systems in these days. There were only two cases where an issue occurred (LDAPs in both cases, check the whole thread to get the SR number). All my upgrades were fast and easy.

Well we want to have more features, we long for a better integration to other products and we wish more progress. But please honor that updating GroupWise is so easy and so fast! Not only this version - many other versions before too!

Success. I even got gwweb to work fine. ... Just can't figure out how to automatically restart to docker stuff. ... Also, lack of clear concise documentation is troubling. ... I see several ambiguous posts restarting gwweb. Nothing definitive.

docker run --restart unless-stopped
