Upgrading from 1.6 to 1.8 issue

I think the problem may be that in the public directory of those apps there are multiple manifest files and the wrong one is being loaded by rails (an older one). This is a related discourse topic where the same apps you mentioned had an issue:

OOD job composer and active jobs failed to work after upgrade

@pingluo just adding this to explain to others how to fix the problem We discovered that for Active Jobs and Job Composer under /var/www/ood/apps/sys/myjobs/public/assets and /var/www/ood/apps/sys/activejobs/public/assets there were old .sprockets-manifest- files along with older css and js assets that needed to be deleted. If you upgrade from 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 to 1.5 you need to ensure these are deleted as the rpm install will not delete these. The right way is to follow the directions for upgrad…

So there might be multiple .sprockets-manifest- files but you only want the one(s) provided by the 1.8 rpm to be in that directory and the others should be deleted.
