Errors When Applying Support Driven Hotfixes Based on FP-41 or FP-42

This article documents a known issue when applying a Liferay Support Driven Hotfix built off either DXP 7.0 Fix Pack 41 or Fix Pack 42.

As a result, a warning will appear when using a hotfix built of Fix Pack 41 or 42 and running the command patching-tool info.

    The patch installation process won't run to prevent unintended rollbacks. If you would still keep these fixes, please consult the support team who will merge these patches for you.


    If the change is intentional, please use the install with the -force argument or run a "patching-tool revert" before installing the fix packs.

Administrators who want to proceed any way can run patching-tool.bat|.sh install -force. Once the command has been executed successfully, the hotfix is applied.
