This file contains upgrade instructions between different versions of jabberd2.
* 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 upgrade:
What changed:
- new ./configure option --without-subst

- resolver component removed
- fixed SSL handling
Install UDNS http://www.corpit.ru/mjt/udns.html and upgrade GSASL to
at least 0.2.26 version.
Resolver is now built in S2S component, so you need to add section
to your s2s.xml config. Then remove resolver component from your configuration.
Please check your verivy-mode setting in c2s.xml, and make sure it is what you
wanted. See SSL_CTX_set_verify(3) manual page.
* 2.1.23 to 2.1.24 upgrade:
What changed:
- server component presences
Look at etc/sm.xml.dist to see how 'pkt-sm' chain should look now.

What changed:
- XEP-0232: Software Information implemented
- BerkeleyDB dump and 2-MySQL migrations scripts in tools
- Updated sources to build on win32 again
See sm.xml.dist config for disco-extend chain snippet for software information
to add to your sm.xml.
See tools/db-update.sqlite for win32 database upgrade script for win32.
* 2.1.21 to 2.1.22 upgrade:
What changed:
- MySQL 5.0+ dependency
- moved --enable-sasl configure option to --with-sasl
* 2.1.20 to 2.1.21 upgrade:

What changed:
- added missing XEP-0054 fields
- server vcard support
- new authreg ldapfull, storage ldapvcard and sm roster-publish modules
- implemented maximum stanza size limit
- disabled CyrusSASL backend compilation
You need to add missing columns to "vcard" table:
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD "jabberid" text, ADD "mailer" text, ADD "uid" text;
See c2s.xml and sm.xml for options of new modules and stanzasize.
* 2.1.18 to 2.1.19 upgrade:
What changed:
- mod_status stores full last presence stanza
- so called "offline status" support
(sending last unavailable presence stanza for unavailable users)
You need to add "xml" column to "status" table:
ALTER TABLE "status" ADD COLUMN "xml" TEXT;
* 2.1.17 to 2.1.18 upgrade:
What changed:
- implemented /webstatus service
If you want to allow users of other servers to store their presence information
in your "status" database table, add status.resource section and status module
in 'pkt-sm' chain in sm.xml. See sm.xml.dist for reference.
* 2.1.16 to 2.1.17 upgrade:
What changed:
- s2s maximum fds option implemented
If you want to configure maximum file descriptors for s2s, look in s2s.xml.dist

What changed:
- Offline storage does not store headline messages by default
- XEP-0157: Contact Addresses for XMPP Services

in sm.xml. See etc/sm.xml.dist for reference.
If you want to set XEP-0157: Contact Addresses please see
etc/sm.xml.dist discovery.serverinfo section for example configuration
to include in sm.xml. You need to add new chain 'disco-extend' section
and discovery/sserverinfo section to configuration.
If you wish, you may use --disable-superseded option during ./configure
to disable all features, that was superseded by newer ones.
If you want to enable stream compression, please uncomment proper section
in c2s.xml.
If you want to enable XEP-0198, please give --enable-experimental parameter
to ./configure script.
If you configure an in c2s.xml with no hostname, it will be used as
a fallback default configuration for running SM with no configured .
See sections in c2s.xml and s2s.xml for reference how to configure
packet counters.
* 2.1.14 to 2.1.15 upgrade:
Only bug and compilation fixes. No configuration changes needed.

* 2.1.9 to 2.1.10 upgrade:
What changed:
- configure SASL backend fallback removed
- user roster items limit support
If you want to use other than GnuSASL backend for SASL, you need to enforce it
by --with-sasl=BACKEND option to ./configure. There is no fallback anymore,
because other backends are not supported and mostly do not work.
If you want to limit user roster items, please see etc/sm.xml.dist for reference.
* 2.1.8 to 2.1.9 upgrade:
What changed:
- logging formats
- oob redirection during registration
If you use log analysers please note that c2s and s2s connect messages have
now a "TLS negotiated" indicator at the end. For s2s it was "SSL negotiated".

If you want to use oob redirection during registration, please see
etc/c2s.xml.dist for reference.

- SASL backend is now GnuSASL by default with Cyrus as an alternative
- configure.in was renamed to configure.ac
- strndup() and timegm() implementations in subst/
- PATH_MAX definition added when necessary
Add iq-ping to in-sess and pkt-sm chains in sm.xml.
You need to explicitly set --sysconfdir with jabberd subdir if you want to.
You need to --disable-gsasl and --enable-cyrus if you need to use Cyrus SASL.
Remove all source dependant patches for missing functions if you have ones.
* 2.1.4 to 2.1.5 upgrade:
What changed:
- auth/reg/storage modules are now loaded dynamically at runtime
- MySQL storage backend is not enabled by default
Dynamic modules should run out of box once installed (make install).
If you need to configure other than the compiled-in path for it, please refer
to the c2s.xml.dist and sm.xml.dist for a proper option.
You will need to explicitly --enable-mysql during ./configure if you want to
use MySQL backends.

You may remove hostname form PostgreSQL setup to access it via unix socket.
* 2.1 to 2.1.3 upgrade:
What changed:
- c2s.xml added section
- c2s PAM authenticator now handles realm setting
- libjabberd moved from /usr/lib to /usr/lib/jabberd
- removed bootstrap script - use: autoreconf --install if you build from sources
If you want to use new SSL aware auth mechanizms please merge
section of c2s.xml.dist into your c2s.xml config file.
Remove any realm setting for PAM authenticated domains or setup your PAM system
to handle additional realms.
If you use modules.path in sm.xml, add .../jabberd/ at the end.
* 2.0 to 2.1 upgrade:
What changed:
- c2s.xml local/id syntax:
- DB schema
- amp and status modules
- CyrusSASL usage
Upgrade:
Basically all subitems and registration options from section
are configurable per-realm now. So you need to move pemfile,
verify-mode, require-starttls to attributes.
You may also use subitems of as before, and these will be used
for legacy port 5223 SSL wrapper.
Options require-starttls, register-enable and password-change ale boolean.
These are enabled if set to anything. 'true' seems reasonable for clarity.
WARNING: Setting 'false' doesn't disable it!!!
When you disabled new registrations for a realm not setting register-enable,
you may wish to set password-change to enable users to change password.
For new options like httpforward, see example c2s.xml for reference.
DB changes:
You need to add the following fields to the "vcard" table:
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "tz" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "n-middle" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "n-prefix" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "n-suffix" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "n-prefx" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "n-suffix" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-street" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-extadd" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-pobox" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-locality" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-region" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-pcode" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "adr-country" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "geo-lat" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "geo-lon" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "org-orgname" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "agent-extval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "sort-string" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "desc" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "note" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "photo-type" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "photo-binval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "photo-extval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "logo-type" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "logo-binval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "logo-extval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "sound-phonetic" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "sound-binval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "sound-extval" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "key-type" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "key-cred" text;
ALTER TABLE vcard ADD COLUMN "rev" text;
and create table "status":
CREATE TABLE "status" (
"collection-owner" text PRIMARY KEY,
"object-sequence" bigint,
"status" text NOT NULL,
"show" text,
"last-login" int DEFAULT '0',
"last-logout" int DEFAULT '0' );
NOTE: PostgreSQL schema was greatly improved as a whole.
It might be a good idea to dump your data (as INSERTS), recreate DB from
new schema and import data back again.
New modules: amp and status
In order for amp and status session manager modules to work, you need to
add them to appropriate chains in sm.xml and set their configuration options.
Chains needed to be updated: sess-start, sess-end, in-sess, pkt-sm, pkt-user
and user-delete. For details see sm.xml.dist.
CyrusSASL
You need working CyrusSASL installation. Please take care to include all
required auth modules. Especially cyrus-sasl-md5 and cyrus-sasl-plain.
Please report all errors of this howto to:
