service builder not creating tables

Hello Alberto,

I need this UpgradeStepRegistrator class because in the past there was a feature request for my module so I had to change the db schema (added some columns and some other things) to provide the feature without data loss on our production environment db table.

I am now trying to deploy this module on a fresh liferay Server 7.1.3 with comulative patch applied. On this server my module was never installed.
So when I try to deply my module as it is no DB tables will be created.
If I remove the UpgradeStepRegistrator class the module creates its tables successfully.

My main Problem is that this module wont create its db tables if there is its UpgradeStepRegistrator class. I dont know why this is happening.
Can you tell me what is the trigger for a module to create its db tables on the very first deploy?

I also think I did not have this problem on Liferay 7.1.3 without the patch applied. Can anybody confirm this?

thanks in advance

Hi Marvin,
Can you provide more details why you need an UpgradeStepRegistrator in this case? That class is useful when you need to change the data definition for a module, are you changing the data definition of a service builder module? Please, provide all details you have to figure out what's happening.
Thanks.

Hello everyone,

I have an issue that my DB tables from a service module are not created after I deploy the api and service module for the first time on a new server.
This specific module has an UpgradeStepRegistrator see -> https://help.liferay.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017889772-Creating-Data-Upgrade-Processes-for-Modules-

The required DB tables are not created but an entry in the release_ table with the right schema version is created.

If I comment out the entire UpgradeStepRegistrator class the DB tables will be created at the first deploy of the modules.
I noticed this because I have a bunch of other modules that dont have an UpgradeStepRegistrator. In these modules the DB tables are created successfully at the first deploy.

I have this problem since I upgraded to Liferay CE 7.1.3 with the comulative patch applied (https://liferay.dev/blogs/-/blogs/security-patches-for-liferay-portal-6-2-7-0-and-7-1)

best regards
