Error: All selected SDAs and SCAs have already been deployed before.

I am trying to patch from a new NW2004s build to SPS10. I patched the JSPM to patch 10 and then used it to deploy SPS10 to the JAVA stack. It seemed to work okay with no errors, but when I check the versions of the components they show version 6 not 10.

When I re-run the JSPM it says that the components are version 6 (not 10) and gives the error:

<b>Error: All selected SDAs and SCAs have already been deployed before</b>.

Any ideas on how I can correct this so that the server reports the correct version numbers of the components (I believe that they are all installed okay).

Thanks.

I know that when you deploy SDAs or SCAs with the deploy tool you can select an option to overwrite the packages even if they already exist. Maybe there is something similar with JSPM?

Unfortunately the JSPM does not have a selectable option to overwrite packages.

In Info | Tool Settings it does list 'Forcemode disabled'. Enabling that might force it to overwite packages...? However I cannot find any documentation on it.

This help page resolved the issue:

It relates to SPS4 and below, but I was on SPS6 and had the same issue.

Thanks.
