| 96 | * [[Other bugs we know about>>https://jira.xwiki.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&&type=1&pid=10010&resolution=-1&sorter/field=updated&sorter/order=DESC]] | ||

| 98 | = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes = | ||
| 99 | |||
| 100 | == General Notes == | ||
| 101 | |||
| 102 | {{warning}} | ||
| 103 | If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases=all// to your //xwiki.cfg// file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in //xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...//. | ||
| 104 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 105 | |||
| 106 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from the improvements listed above. | ||
| 107 | |||
| 108 | {{warning}} | ||
| 109 | Always make sure you compare your //xwiki.cfg// file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note 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. | ||
| 110 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 111 | |||
| 112 | == Notes specific to XWiki Enterprise 2.6 == | ||
| 113 | |||
| 114 | * **The XWiki.XWikiPreferences page must be converted to the xwiki/2.0 syntax**: | ||
| 115 | ** Go to http://yourdomain/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=wiki | ||
| 116 | ** Put the following in the content field {{{ {{include document="XWiki.AdminSheet"/}} }}} | ||
| 117 | ** Change the syntax to xwiki/2.0 and press cancel (the automatic conversion would convert fields that must not be converted in the XWikiPreferences object) | ||
| 118 | * The Main.RecentChages page was removed and replaced by Main.Activity | ||
| 119 | * The configuration option controlling the experimental CSRF protection mechanism introduced in 2.5 was changed from ##core.csrf.enabled## to ##csrf.enabled##. If you are using CSRF protection, make sure to re-enable it by setting ##csrf.enabled = true## in ##xwiki.properties##. | ||
| 120 | * The configuration option to define macro categories was changed from ##rendering.macroCategories## to ##rendering.transformation.macro.categories##. If you're using this option make sure you modify its name in ##xwiki.properties##. | ||
| 121 | |||
