- If you have Google Analytics or Piwik analytics configured, remove the deprecated :GoogleAnalyticsCode, :PiwikAnalyticsId, :PiwikAnalyticsHost, :PiwikAnalyticsTrackerFileName settings, and use :WebAnalyticsCode. The new setting works like the custom HTML files for branding, which allows for more control of your analytics, making it easier to customize what you prefer to track. See Web Analytics Code in the Guides for more details.
A note on upgrading from older versions:
If you are upgrading from v4.x, you must upgrade to each intermediate version before installing this version with the exception of db updates as noted.
We now offer an EXPERIMENTAL database upgrade method allowing users to skip over a number of releases. E.g., it should be possible now to upgrade a Dataverse database from v4.8.6 directly to the current release, without having to deploy the war files for the 5 releases between these 2 versions and manually running the corresponding database upgrade scripts.
The upgrade script, dbupgrade.sh is provided in the scripts/database directory of the Dataverse source tree. See the file README_upgrade_across_versions.txt for the instructions.
