3752485 - DTypes are not loaded for Admin-Users with backendConfig

Symptom

  • When an ECTR installation is updated to 5.1.16.0, the BackendConfig contains only a configuration for an older ECTR version. (Which is ok (tick) )
    If ECTR is started as admin, the DTypes are read from the installation directory and not from the BackendConfig directory! (Which is wrong (error) )

  • Admins with 5.1.16.0 and BackendConfig - feature active will use a wrong Dtype configuration until a new 5.1.16.0 configuration file is uploaded.

  • This affects only ECTR - admins. The user (without /DSCSAG/ADMIN auth.) does not notice this, the BackendConfig of the old version is still loaded from the configuration directory.

    If the admin uses the workaround described here, the user will load then the new BackendConfig.
