Hi,

The problem seems to be that your test history database hasn't been upgraded properly. In this situation the test history feature is normally disabled until the upgrade has been made, but for whatever reason this didn't happen in your case. We'll try to reproduce this bug and fix it.

Meanwhile, you could probably solve this by going to the Compare or History tab and clicking on the Upgrade button.

If this doesn't work, as a last resort you can disable the test history feature completely with the following workaround.

1. Create a file called system.properties with the following single line:

test.history.disabled=true

2. Put in the directory .readyapi, which you'll find in your home folder (e.g. C:\Users\<your_user_name> on Windows)

3. Restart Ready! API

Hope this helps!

Thanks Manne for your reply.

I have downgraded to 1.4.1 for now as all my current tests run. If a maintenance build becomes available with a fix please let me know and I will give it a go.

  OK. But did you try any of the fixes I suggested?
  
  They should both work; if they didn't I'd have to find out why.
  
  Best

    I should add that no maintenance fix will be made for this problem, because this is not a general problem with Groovy Test Steps.
    
    Something just went wrong when your database was to be upgraded. Hopefully upgrading the database manually, as described above, will solve the problem permanently. If you can't upgrade your database, and you don't mind losing your earlier test history, you can also move the database directory - .ready/db inside your home directory - away and restart.
    
    If none of these suggestions work for you, please open a support ticket and we'll help you!

Where is this Upgrade button on the history page? I'm having the same problem. Can you post a screen shot?

  Since I upgraded my test history database, I no longer see the button. My recollection was that it was easy to find. I guess if you don't see one then your database is up to date?

    Thanks for replying. I guess I'll have to continue my investigation.
