102 | {{info}} | ||
103 | If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases// in your //xwiki.cfg// file if you want to explicitly name some databases to be migrated as the default is now to migrate all databases. Database that are not migrated could not be accessed. | ||
104 | {{/info}} | ||
105 | |||
106 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above. | ||
107 | |||
108 | {{warning}} | ||
109 | Always make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg## and ##xwiki.properties## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters were 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. | ||
