| 94 | |||
| 95 | = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes = | ||
| 96 | |||
| 97 | == General Notes == | ||
| 98 | |||
| 99 | 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. | ||
| 100 | |||
| 101 | == Issues specific to XWiki 6.2-milestone-1 == | ||
| 102 | |||
| 103 | * After the upgrade, old Activity Stream events might now be visible anymore. Only new events will start to be displayed. See [[XWIKI-9066>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9066]]. | ||
| 104 | * 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. | ||
