Thomas Mortagne 1.4 5 This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.
Thomas Mortagne 1.1 6
Thomas Mortagne 1.2 7 This is mostly a release focusing on improving the new Notifications feature, in order to make it as polished and usable as possible before the end of the year (i.e. before the end of the Cycle and before we elect a new LTS release). It also contains several bug fixes.

58 == General Notes ==
59
60 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.
61
Thomas Mortagne 1.3 62 == Issues specific to XWiki 9.10 ==
Thomas Mortagne 1.1 63
Thomas Mortagne 1.3 64 * {{code}}XWiki#getURLContent(){{/code}} and {{code}}XWiki#getURLContentAsBytes(){{/code}} now require Programming Rights. If you had wiki pages using those API, make sure that they are saved with a user having Programming Rights.
Thomas Mortagne 8.1 65 * The way to configure deleted attachment storage has changed: in ##xwiki.cfg## file, ##xwiki.store.attachment.recyclebin.hint=file## is now deprecated and should be commented while using ##xwiki.store.attachment.recyclebin.**content**.hint=file## instead.
