Release Notes for XWiki Enterprise 3.2.1

Last modified by Thomas Mortagne on 2017/03/24

This is the first (and probably last) bugfix release for the 3.2 series. No new features are introduced in this version. One important change is the way relative references in an included document are resolved, reverting back to the pre-3.0 behavior. See below for more details. Other areas with several bugfixes are support for Oracle databases, the rending engine, the WYSIWYG editor, and the Activity Stream.

Known issues

Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes

General Notes

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,....

You may also want to import the default wiki XAR in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above.

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.

Issues specific to XWiki Enterprise 3.2.1

XWIKI-7382: The behavior of the {{include}} macro has changed back to the pre-3.0 behavior. Now relative links in a document {{include}}d with context="current" are resolved relative to the including document, not relative to the included one.

API Breakages

No APIs were broken since XWiki Enterprise 3.2. You can see the list of broken APIs since 3.1 in the XWiki Enterprise 3.2 release notes.
