Revert Schema Modifications

If you change your mind about your schema modifications after putting them in test mode, you can revert back to the published, version of the schema. Because reverting schema modifications has the potential of impacting other users, this option is available only if your installation has installed both the wsp_domsrvr and wsp_webengine options to dedicate an Object Engine and a Web Engine to WSP.

To revert schema changes from Test mode, select Revert Test Mode from the File menu. WSP deletes the wsptest.mods, causing WSP Object Engine to revert its schema back to the published version.

After deleting the wsptest.mods file, WSP causes its Object Engine to recycle so that it can rebuild its internal schema. This may take from a few seconds to a couple of minutes, depending on the complexity of your schema.

After the Object Engine has completed recycling, the active schema is back to its published version. Web forms modified to work with the new schema are not themselves automatically reverted, and may not work correctly when used with the published schema.
