Yuxuan 'fishy' Wang4f5ad9d2016-05-03 16:18:58 -07007== Important Notes
David Pursehousef15ff1a2014-12-27 09:33:44 +09008
9*WARNING:* There are no schema changes from
10link:ReleaseNotes-2.9.3.html[2.9.3], but when upgrading from an existing site
11that was initialized with Gerrit version 2.6 to version 2.9.1 the primary key
12column order will be updated for some tables. It is therefore important to
13upgrade the site with the `init` program, rather than only copying the .war file
14over the existing one.
15
16It is recommended to run the `init` program in interactive mode. Warnings will
17be suppressed in batch mode.

24Bouncy Castle Crypto, new versions of the libraries will be downloaded. The old
25libraries should be manually removed from site's `lib` folder to prevent the
26startup failure described in
27link:https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3084[Issue 3084].
