Warning
Note

You might lose some functionality or potentially re-introduce some bugs , that have been fixed in the a newer version. So generally Generally, it is not a good idea to downgrade JSU.

Further if If you have saved any configuration with a newer version of JSU (in particular in the area of workflows), the configuration saved with a newer version of JSU might not be compatible with an older version of JSU. (We provide only compatibility for updates of JSU).

Bean dependency problems with messages in the log file

In rare cases, we have had reports that user got users received a 404 error message in the browser, for example when navigation navigating to JSU General Configuration. Checking the log file there had have been messages likesimilar to the following:

Code Block
Error creating bean with name 'com.googlecode.jsu.actions.ConfigurationAction': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through constructor argument with index 0 of type

This was because of a conflict with some other pluginanother add-on. We had been able to fix resolved this issue in JSU version 2.5.2. We recommend updating to update to the latest version of JSU.
