92 = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes =
93
94 == General Notes ==
95
96 * When upgrading make sure you compare and merge the following XWiki configuration files since some parameters may have been modified, removed or added:
97 ** ##xwiki.cfg##
98 ** ##xwiki.properties##
99 ** ##web.xml##
100 ** ##hibernate.cfg.xml##
101 * Add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## in ##xwiki.cfg## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to any new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.
102
103 == Issues specific to {{velocity}}$product $version{{/velocity}} ==
104
105 === Live Data Vue Components registration ===
106
107 With the upgrade to Vue 3, the former mechanism to load additional components is not supported.
108 If you are using code such as the one presented below, please migrate your component to Vue 3 as well, and see the [[Live Data Component store>>||anchor="HLiveDatacomponentsstore"]] section to migrate.
109
110 {{code language="javascript"}}
111 Vue.component('DisplayerXXX', DisplayerXXXVue2Component);
112 {{/code}}
113
114 === New meta.vm template ===
115
116 When the ##XWiki.XWikiPreferences^XWiki.XWikiPreferences[0].meta## field is emptied if it matched the default value when upgrading to 17.4.0RC1.
117 You can consult this field from the UI by going to the [[//Presentation//>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application||anchor="HHTTPMetaInfo"]] section of the administration, under the //Look & Feel// category. Then check the //HTTP Meta Info// field.
118
119 * When the ##meta## field is empty, the new ##meta.vm## template file is used.
120 * After upgrading, it is advised to check if the ##meta## field is empty. If that's the case and no customization has been performed, you can check the history to verify if minor, irrelevant changes can be found. If that's the case, it is possible to empty the ##meta## field by yourself.
121
122 === XWiki now overwrite the standard application server request URL resolution ===
123
124 We had too many erratic/buggy behaviors with various application servers not properly following proxy headers, so we decider to not trust them anymore: XWiki now overwrite in a Servlet filter the behavior of ##ServletRequest#getScheme()##, ##ServletRequest#getServerName()##, ##ServletRequest#getServerPort()## and ##HttpServletRequest#getRequestURL()## so those should now have the same behavior to matter the application server used and its setup.
125
126 == API Breakages ==
127
128 No API breakage since {{velocity}}$product{{/velocity}} 17.3.0.
