Symptoms

When changing an existing file and executing migration application in order to migrate it from Source to Target, that file does not get updated on target
The file is only migrated in case it does not exist at the target environment


Example:-
Source: <siebel_ai_home>/applicationcontainer/webapps/siebel/files/custom/main.css (Updated Sept 3,2020 23kb)
Target: <siebel_ai_home>/applicationcontainer/webapps/siebel/files/custom/main.css (Updated Aug 28,2020 22kb)




STEPS
--------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Change to an existing file that need to be copied from Source (Development)

Example:
Source: <siebel_ai_home>/applicationcontainer/webapps/siebel/files/custom/main.css (Updated Sept 3,2020 23kb)

2. Verify that the same file exists at target environment:
Example:
Target: <siebel_ai_home>/applicationcontainer/webapps/siebel/files/custom/main.css (Updated Aug 28,2020 22kb)

3. Create a migration plan and select only "File Prepare And Deploy" resources for migration

4. Edit the filemig_config.properties as below:

filemig_config.properties:-

inclusion-dir=%ORACLE_HOME%/applicationcontainer/webapps/siebel
exclude-extension=xps, pdf


5. Execute the migration plan

6. After running file deploy, the target main.css is still not updated with the Sept 3 23kb file from source.
