Hi Steve,<br>I&#39;m not sure about the problems that you are having but a lot of things change from version 2 to 5. Probably the best way to make it work is to create a small project with a few rules and start testing the results. If you want to migrate your whole application you will be probably facing that kind of errors without knowing where they happen.<br>
My two cents..<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2011/1/28 Steve Floridas <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:steve.floridas@gmail.com">steve.floridas@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We are an insurance company employing drools ( version 2 currently) for policy validation rules and for reading policy specific rates from spreadsheet using drools. We are currently running in to memory issues when we execute the compiled JAR ( including the drools compiled files), as there are lot of rules fired for different versions of policy rating. My question here is :- </div>


<div>Is there any scope of resolving this memory issue with upgrade of drools package from version 2 to version 5? Will the compiled DRLs in Drools 5 be more compressed compared to Drools 2?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have been trying to upgrade to Drools 5 by adding the necessary jars for compilation. But unfortunately I am gettng few errors on spreadsheet and DRL compilation. Is there more to work on the upgrade?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>One of the errors I frequently get for spreadsheet comparison is something like below:</div>
<div> </div>
<div><i>Invalid character input &quot;?&quot; (character code 65533)</i></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please clarify my above questions.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you much,</div>
