Below are some important notes on upgrading to Confluence 3.4.7. For details of the fixes in this release, please read the release notes.

Upgrade Notes

This release solves a problem that caused the Confluence index build to fail without reporting any errors. Symptoms of the problem included missing blog posts, and missing pages in the list returned by the Content by Label macro. This is now fixed.

If you experienced this problem, you should re-index Confluence after performing the upgrade. See Content Index Administration and CONF-21500.

Upgrade Procedure

If you are already running a version of Confluence, please follow these instructions to upgrade to the latest version:

  1. Before you upgrade, we strongly recommend that you back up your Confluence Home directory and database. The Confluence Home directory is the folder where Confluence stores its configuration information, search indexes and page attachments. Another term for 'Home directory' would be 'data directory'. Read more about finding your Home directory.
  2. If your version of Confluence is earlier than 3.4, read the release notes and upgrade guides for all releases between your version and the latest version. In particular:
  3. Download the latest version of Confluence.
  4. Follow the instructions in the Upgrade Guide.

Useful Plugins

Before installing an add-on (also called a plugin) into your Confluence site, please check the add-on's information page to see whether it is supported by Atlassian, by another vendor, or not at all. See our guidelines on add-on support.
