| 10 | This is the first and hopefully final release candidate of the 4.1 release cycle ([[Roadmap>>Main.Roadmap]]). Being a release candidate, this release is sparse on new features, concentrating instead on stabilization of the features brought in [[Milestone 1>>ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise41M1]] and [[Milestone 2>>ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise41M2]]. | ||

| 65 | 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. | ||
| 66 | {{/info}} | ||
| 67 | |||
| 68 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above. | ||
| 69 | |||
| 70 | {{warning}} | ||
| 71 | 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. | ||
