Revert From Architect 2.1 to Architect 2.0

[dynaka]

I loaded 2.1 this morning. The code that worked yesterday under 2.0 now does not work. I open the project in 2.1, it asked me to upgrade it to 2.1, i said yes. When I run the code in a browser, it fails. Specifically the comboboxes in my grid only show the first choice.

Hey, it's nice that 2.1 is there. But I have work to do, which was proceeding nicely using 2.0 (442).

How do I revert to 2.0/442?

Thanks

Did you upgrade to 4.1?

Yes, I have this line in my index.php that loads 4.1. Just to be sure, i also sent an alert() to my screen from app.js that told me the extJS version: 4.1.0.

sencha_library_ver_override = "extjs-4.1.0";

@Sencha folks.....I really hate to rain on the parade of all the praise you're receiving on this release of Architect 2.1, but this software is garbage and a huge step back. I can only assume that those praising your efforts have not even opened the new version yet. They can't have because it is so bug laden that I would classify it as unusable. As I mentioned in another thread, it is overwriting external files in the application directory. In addition, working with views and components is a nightmare. It is doubling and tripling the components in Design view (not the components themselves but their representation within the Design window). Simple things like setting the Flex on a button won't work (randomly). I've attempted to clear or reset the flex values, but the interface won't commit the typed value. So, naturally, when you deploy the application, you get JS runtime errors because the value of Flex is an undefined object. These are just a few examples of oddities that I've encountered and I've only been using it a few hours.

I've been trying to make the switch from Adobe Flex to the Sencha technologies for the past few months. I'm REALLY trying to like working with ExtJS and Architect, but you're making it extremely hard to do so. This "upgrade" is a disappointment at best. I, too, would like to go back to version 2.0

By the way, when I navigate to the folder with SA in it, and delete the xds-2.1.0.000584.ion file, each time I start SA, that file comes back.

To downgrade go into the following directory and remove all files with a build # higher than 442. ie "xds-2.1.0.000584.ion"

So this does not seem to work, at least for me.

We've had a pretty active beta group using the software with great success. As always when you deploy to a larger group you run into issues. We're working on known issues and will have a patch release out when its been vetted by QA.

Brute force way of downgrading... Delete the AppData folder and install this.

Aaron,

The DMG download you link to is still version 2.1. I even ran it directly out of the mounted disk image and it clearly states "version 2.1 build 584" or something like that.

That's not true. Maybe you already have an image mounted?

just downloaded, right click show package contents, then navigate
Contents -> MacOS -> xds-2.0.0.000442.ion

It's 2.0.0 build 442.

OK....You also have to delete some preference files located in "Users\Library\Preferences" and in "Library\Application Support\Sencha, Inc." You then have to re-register the application, and then bypass the "New Version Available..." dialog. Then, the above DMG file works.

Thank You,
