Upgrade Notes
- 1.8 → 1.9 introduced a change to how change set checksum generation is performed for addNotNullConstraint and removeNotNullConstraint. You will get an md5sum error if you use these tags until you either add a validCheckSum tag to the failing changesets using the old checksum (the one listed in the validation failed message) or run “liquibase clearCheckSums” or “UPDATE DATABASECHANGELOG SET MD5SUM=NULL”
- 1.5 → 1.6 introduced a change to how change set checksum generation is performed. You will get an md5sum error message until you either run “liquibase clearCheckSums” or “UPDATE DATABASECHANGELOG SET MD5SUM=NULL”
- 1.4 → 1.5 introduced changes that may break existing configurations. See the 1.5 release announcement for more information
Requirements
LiquiBase has been designed for Java 1.5 and greater. There is a package built for 1.4, but it has not been well tested….
Installation
Extract liquibase.zip. In it you will find a liquibase-VERSION.jar This jar is all that is needed to run LiquiBase from the command line, Ant, Maven, Spring, or a servlet container. You can run the command line version of the migrator with the same jar file by simply running java -jar liquibase-VERSION.jar.
