Upgrade from 6.5 to 7.0

Flowable Engine
1

I am currently on version 6.5 and in the processing of migrating to version 7.0

I ran in sequence each of the database oracle upgrade scripts

6.5 to 6.6
6.6. to 6.7
6.7 to 6.7.1
6.7.1 to 6.7.2
6.7.2 to 6.8
6.8 to 7.0

Updated my pom

<properties>
    <maven-jar-plugin.version>3.2.0</maven-jar-plugin.version>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
    <project.reporting.outputEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.outputEncoding>
    <java.version>17</java.version>
    <spring-security.version>6.2.1</spring-security.version>
</properties

<parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>3.1.10</version>
</parent>

        <groupId>org.flowable</groupId>
        <artifactId>flowable-spring-boot-starter-rest</artifactId>
        <version>7.0.0</version>

Updated required code from java 11 to java 17

First question is this the correct approach to upgrade across multiple flowable releases ?

When I perform my spring-boot:run via intellij

I initially had the following in my config that I assume should have been set to false

engineConfiguration.setDatabaseSchemaUpdate(AbstractEngineConfiguration.DB_SCHEMA_UPDATE_TRUE);

which I assume is causing my checksum liquibase errors below ??

Second question
What is the best way to fix ?

Hey @pt35468,

This looks like some issues with the Liquibase version. Have you managed to resolve your issue?

Cheers,
