| Important Notes |
| --------------- |
| |
| *WARNING:* There are no schema changes from |
| link:ReleaseNotes-2.9.3.html[2.9.3], but when upgrading from an existing site |
| that was initialized with Gerrit version 2.6 to version 2.9.1 the primary key |
| column order will be updated for some tables. It is therefore important to |
| upgrade the site with the `init` program, rather than only copying the .war file |
| over the existing one. |
| |
| It is recommended to run the `init` program in interactive mode. Warnings will |
| be suppressed in batch mode. |

| |
| *WARNING:* When upgrading from version 2.8.4 or older with a site that uses |
| Bouncy Castle Crypto, new versions of the libraries will be downloaded. The old |
| libraries should be manually removed from site's `lib` folder to prevent the |
| startup failure described in |
| link:https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3084[Issue 3084]. |
