As a part of this bug fix: We are not allowing webUI banner text and color detail when webUI banner is disabled. We are only allowing to configure/show webUI banner test and color when webUI banner is enabled. After this fix, We have some upgrade compatibility issue from 1.6.0-A to 1.7.0-A, 1.6.0-C to 1.8.0-C and 1.7.0-C to 1.8.0-C (or latest). If we enable webUI banner without providing values for color and text in 1.6.0-A/C and 1.7.0-C build and if we upgrade to latest version(1.7.0-A build and 1.8.0-C) from 1.6.0-A/C and 1.7.0-C where we cannot enable banner without text, upgrade will fail with compatibility issue.
We will not be able to upgrade from 1.6.0-A to 1.7.0-A, 1.6.0-C to 1.8.0-C, and 1.7.0-C to 1.8.0-C with webUI banner enabled and color and text fields empty.
If webUI banner is enabled without text and color details then upgrade from 1.6.0-A to 1.7.0-A, 1.6.0-C to 1.8.0-C and 1.7.0-C to 1.8.0-C will fail with compatibility error.
Either disable the webUI banner or enable the webUI banner with color and text fields.
We are not allowing webUI banner's text and color details when webUI banner is disabled. We are only allowing to configure/show webUI banner's text and color when webUI banner is enabled.
