Description
Problem Statement
When the 26.02.27-01_java-25 dev image was pushed to dotcms/dotcms-dev, the floating java-25 tag was not promoted to point to the new image. The java-25 tag is currently 2 days older than the versioned 26.02.27-01_java-25 tag, meaning consumers pinning to java-25 are silently pulling a stale build.
The same workflow on the non-dev image (dotcms/dotcms) is functioning correctly — the floating tag is updated on each publish run as expected. This appears to be a CI/publishing pipeline issue specific to the dotcms-dev image workflow.
Steps to Reproduce
- Pull
dotcms/dotcms-dev:java-25 - Note the digest — it does not match
dotcms/dotcms-dev:26.02.27-01_java-25 - Compare with
dotcms/dotcms:java-25— that floating tag is current
Acceptance Criteria
- The
java-25floating tag ondotcms/dotcms-devis promoted to match the latest versioned tag on every publish run - The CI/CD pipeline for
dotcms-devmirrors the floating-tag promotion behavior ofdotcms/dotcms

Research direction
Start by locating the CI/CD publishing workflow for the dotcms-dev image and compare it with the working workflow for dotcms. Trace how the versioned 26.02.27-01_java-25 tag is published and promoted, then verify that java-25 receives the same digest on every publish run.
