61 == General Notes ==
62
63 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.
64
65 == Issues specific to XWiki 6.4.1 ==
66
67 * The Mail Sender API has changed slightly when sending emails to a list of users or to a group. For example if you wanted to send a template email to a group, you previously had to write:(((
68 {{code language="none"}}
69 ## Parameters for the 'template' MimeMessageFactory
70 #set ($templateParameters = {'language' : $xcontext.language, 'velocityVariables' : { 'var1' : 'value1' }})
71
72 ## Parameters for the 'group' MimeMessage Iterator Factory
73 #set ($templateReference = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', 'Space', 'MailTemplatePage'))
74 #set ($parameters = {'parameters' : $parameters, 'source' : $templateReference })
75
76 #set ($groupReference = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', 'XWiki', 'MyGroup'))
77 #set ($messages = $services.mailsender.createMessages('group', $groupReference, 'template', $parameters))
78 ^^^^^^^^^^
79 #set ($mailResult = $services.mailsender.send($messages, 'database'))
80 {{/code}}
81
82 And now in 6.4.1 you'll need to write:
83
84 {{code language="none"}}
85 ## Parameters for the 'template' MimeMessageFactory
86 #set ($templateParameters = {'language' : $xcontext.language, 'velocityVariables' : { 'var1' : 'value1' }})
87
88 ## Parameters for the 'group' MimeMessageFactory
89 #set ($templateReference = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', 'Space', 'MailTemplatePage'))
90 #set ($groupParameters = {'hint' : 'template', 'parameters' : $templateParameters, 'source' : $templateReference })
91 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
92 #set ($groupReference = $services.model.createDocumentReference('', 'XWiki', 'MyGroup'))
93 #set ($messages = $services.mailsender.createMessages('group', $groupReference, $groupParameters))
94 #set ($mailResult = $services.mailsender.send($messages, 'database'))
