Re: [Dhis2-users] dhis 2.16 upgrade notes

 

Hi Sumudu,

I looked through your log, and it looks like you are using an older build
of 2.16 which is subject to a potentially very serious security flaw. This
issue was disclosed on the DHIS2 developer  and user list last week out
last week and a fix has been committed by the developers. You would be well
advised to upgrade to the latest version of 2.16, available here (
https://apps.dhis2.org/ci/job/dhis-2.16/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/dhis-2/dhis-web/dhis-web-portal/target/dhis.war
).

It is a bit hard to say from the logs what might be going on, because it is
only a quite short snippet. I suggest you shutdown Tomcat, remove the old
dhis.war file and all the contents of the /dhis directory (or whatever you
might be calling it), download the updated 2.16 war file as mentioned
above, restart Tomcat, and then post the logs of where things go wrong.

Best regards,
Jason
