JIRA 4.1.2 Upgrade Guide

Upgrading from JIRA 4.1 or 4.1.1 to 4.1.2

Please follow the JIRA general upgrade instructions, plus note the following:

• A loophole has been closed whereby users who have the 'JIRA Administrators' permission but not the 'JIRA Users' permission were previously able to log in to JIRA. After the upgrade to JIRA 4.1.2, if you find that JIRA administrators can no longer log in, please check that they have been granted the 'JIRA Users' permission (see Managing Global Permissions).
• For JIRA instances connected to Atlassian Crowd, a loophole has been closed whereby users who do not have the 'JIRA Users' permission were previously able to log in to JIRA via Crowd Single Sign On (SSO). After the upgrade to JIRA 4.1.2, if you find that users can no longer login, please check that they have been granted the 'JIRA Users' permission (see Managing Global Permissions).

Upgrading from JIRA 4.0.x and earlier

In addition to the above, please read the JIRA 4.1 Upgrade Guide and the Upgrade Guide for every version you are skipping during the upgrade. The complete list of Upgrade Guides is available here.
