Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes

General Notes

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.

Issues specific to XWiki 6.2-milestone-1

• After the upgrade, old Activity Stream events might now be visible anymore. Only new events will start to be displayed. See XWIKI-9066.
• The new Mail Sender API was using a property named smtp_from when the from address was not specified when sending an email. Even though this property is used by the old Mail Sender plugin, it doesn't exist by default in XWikiPreferences. We're now using the admin_email property which is the one you see in the Admin UI.
