Goal

Sometimes patch application on OCSG fails with the error "Version must be different from previous version". How do we resolve this problem?

For example:

Execute the following command to apply a patch in OCSG servers.

ant patch -Dsrc=/path/to/jar/file -Ddest=/path/to/jar/file -Dpatchdir=/path/to/patch -Dpatchfiles=patch_file -Dversion=5.0.0.0.1

But build was failed.
