Bamboo deploys wrong version

[Former user]

Pre-conditions: You must have a higher version of the add-on installed on the environment (for example Addon version 1.6.4 on Jira)

Steps: During the deployment we try to install version lower than already installed (for example 1.6.3).

Actual result: In the audit log of Jira add-ons we see that version 1.6.4 was installed.

Expected result: Version 1.6.3 installed to Jira.

Jira does not support installing a lower version of the add-on than what is already installed. You can replicate the same behavior by trying to upload a lower version of the add-on through the Jira admin UI.

The bamboo task could potentially work around this problem by performing an explicit uninstallation of the add-on before installing the deployed version, but this could cause other problems (i. hard to rollback if installation fails, ii. functionality gets disabled while task is executing).
