|  | Important Notes | 
|  | --------------- | 
|  |  | 
|  |  | 
|  | *WARNING:* Upgrading to 2.12.x requires the server be first upgraded to 2.8 (or | 
|  | 2.9) and then to 2.12.x. If you are upgrading from 2.8.x or later, you may ignore | 
|  | this warning and upgrade directly to 2.12.x. | 
|  |  | 
|  | *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 |
