Upgrade to using Database-backed Noid ID Minter
Avalon 6.1 switched to using a database-backed noid id minter by default since it is more robust and recommended by the active_fedora-noid gem.
bundle exec rake db:migrate # Backup your minter state file (default location is /tmp/minter-state) cp /tmp/minter-state /tmp/minter-state.bak bundle exec rake active_fedora:noid:migrate:yaml_to_marshal bundle exec rake active_fedora:noid:file_to_database # Remove the minter state file rm /tmp/minter-state # Check everything worked correctly # If the following command runs without any output it was successful bundle exec rails r "MediaObject.new.assign_id"
