Hi Akira Nishi​ can you please share the validation.properties file with us here? Also what's the exact error message you are getting? And which OS version and Tomcat version are you working with? Also, which persistence provider are you using?

Hi Sushant,

I cannot find upload attach file in this site so here is body-text of validation.properties file.

Error message says

HTTP ERROR 500

It does not forward to right URL.

Akira, did you keep this file during upgrade process? the value set for Validator.Redirect=^\\/test.*$ is incorrect. It should be pointing to thingworx something like this Validator.Redirect=^\\/Thingworx.*$

I'd recommend to stop Tomcat > backup and remove the validation.properties file from \\ThingworxStorage\esapi > Restart Tomcat . This will auto-generate new validation.properties file in that location. This should fix your issue.

[anishi]

BINGO!

You are right.

I just removed the file, validation.properties and tomcat restarted then it works fine!

Thank you!

Akira
