They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version. | ||

7 | This is a bugfix release. | ||

16 | |||
17 | == Wiki Alias == | ||
18 | |||
19 | * When the ##path mode## is enabled, the alias of the wiki is now asked in the wiki creation wizard: | ||
20 | {{image reference="wikialias.png" width="65%"/}} | ||
21 | * The default suffix for the wiki alias can be set in ##xwiki.properties##:((( | ||
22 | {{code}} | ||
23 | #-# [Since 5.4.4] | ||
24 | #-# Add a default suffix to the alias of a new wiki in the wiki creation wizard, only when the path mode is used | ||
25 | #-# (see url.standard.multiwiki.isPathBased). If this value is empty, XWiki will try to compute it automatically from | ||
26 | #-# request URL. | ||
27 | #-# | ||
28 | #-# eg: if wiki.alias.suffix is "xwiki.org" and the wiki name "playground" | ||
29 | #-# then the computed alias will be: "playground.xwiki.org". | ||
30 | #-# | ||
31 | #-# The default is: | ||
32 | wiki.alias.suffix= | ||

35 | |||
36 | = For Developers = | ||
37 | |||
38 | ##$services.wiki.user## has new methods called ##hasPendingInvitation()## and ##hasPendingRequest()##. Same in the ##WikiUserManager## interface. | ||
39 | |||
40 | = Tested Browsers & Databases = | ||

44 | = Known issues = | ||
45 | |||
46 | * [[Bugs we know about>>https://jira.xwiki.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery=category+%3D+%22Top+Level+Projects%22+AND+issuetype+%3D+Bug+AND+resolution+%3D+Unresolved+ORDER+BY+updated+DESC]] | ||
47 | |||
48 | = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes = | ||
49 | |||
50 | == General Notes == | ||
51 | |||
52 | When upgrading make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg##, ##xwiki.properties## and ##web.xml## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters may have been modified or added. Note that you should add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything. | ||
53 | |||
54 | == Solr Search Index == | ||
55 | |||
56 | {{error}} | ||
57 | We made changes to the [[Solr schema>>http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/SolrSchema]] in this release (see [[XWIKI-10225>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-10225]]) and unfortunately we don't have support for automatic Solr search index migration at this point. If you upgrade from XWiki 4.3 Milestone 2 or greater then **you have to delete the 'solr' folder** from the configured permanent directory of your XWiki instance (because the Solr schema is cached there). The Solr index will be recreated automatically and the entire wiki/farm will be re-indexed after a server restart. | ||
