Hi everyone,

for information we’re planning an upgrade of xwiki.org and related websites (including extensions.xwiki.org) next monday the 3rd of november starting at 9:00 AM CET.

As usual this means the websites will still be available in readonly during the upgrade but it won’t be possible to update the pages during it.

Note that following Move towards upgrading xwiki.org every 2 months we will perform those upgrades more regularly than we used to.

I will keep you informed here how the upgrade is going.

Thanks

Hello,

the upgrade will start in few minutes. I’ll keep you informed how it goes here.

Some updates: we found a regression this morning impacting the version of XWiki we want to upgrade to. We’re currently checking if we can deploy a hotfix or if we can workaround the problem, or if we need to revert the upgrade. So for now the upgrade is temporarily on hold, we will resume it when we find a solution, probably in few hours.

We’ve been able to deploy a hotfix and so we’re resuming the upgrade, it shouldn’t be long to finish now.

The upgrade is now finished. XWiki.org is running on XWiki Standard 17.4.7.
