• Fix Priority: 4

When attempting to upgrade to 6.2.X, a DDMStructure exception occurs during the upgrade process. Possibly because of the way the structure editor changed, it also changes the way the data is written to the database (different from previous versions).

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start a Previous Portal Version (eg. 6.1.X EE)
2. Add a structure
3. Add a template (based on the structure)
4. Add a web content (based on the structure)
5. Shutdown the server
6. Upgrade to 6.2.X
   • The following stacktrace will occur during server startup:
