# Versions This chapter provides the following information for each release: - A link to the full release notes which includes all issues resolved in the release. - A brief list of "highlights" when applicable. - If necessary, specific steps required when upgrading from the previous version. - **Note:** If the upgrade spans multiple versions then the steps from **each** version need to be followed in order. - **Note:** Follow the general upgrade procedure outlined in the [Upgrading the Broker](upgrading.md) chapter in addition to any version-specific upgrade instructions outlined here. ## 2.26.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12352297&projectId=12315920) Highlights: - Bug fixes and improvements #### Upgrading from older versions 1. We removed all *all clients from ./artemis/client as part of [ARTEMIS-4006](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-4006). If you used to rely on these libraries please refer to the [client class path documentation](client-classpath.md) for more information. 2. We removed ActiveMQ-Artemis rest as part of 2.26.0. If you still require activemq rest you can still have access to its latest version at [Maven central](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.activemq.rest/artemis-rest/2.25.0). You can still follow the steps on Rest from any [previous documentation](https://activemq.apache.org/components/artemis/documentation/2.24.0/rest.html), however you should stop using the module as it will not be maintained any more. ## 2.25.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12352143&projectId=12315920) Highlights: - Improvement on Paging Flow Control - Many other bug fixes and improvements ## 2.24.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12351822&projectId=12315920) Highlights: - Streamlined page caches and files are just read into queues without the need of soft caches. #### Upgrading from older versions 1. Due to [ARTEMIS-3851](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3851) the queue created for an MQTT 3.x subscriber using `CleanSession=1` is now **non-durable** rather than durable. This may impact `security-settings` for MQTT clients which previously only had `createDurableQueue` for their role. They will now need `createNonDurableQueue` as well. Again, this only has potential impact for MQTT 3.x clients using `CleanSession=1`. 2. Due to [ARTEMIS-3892](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3892) the username assigned to queues will be based on the **validated** user rather than just the username submitted by the client application. This will impact use-cases like the following: 1. When `login.config` is configured with the [`GuestLoginModule`](security.md#guestloginmodule) which causes some users to be assigned a specific username and role during the authentication process. 2. When `login.config` is configured with the [`CertificateLoginModule`](security.md#certificateloginmodule) which causes users to be assigned a username and role corresponding to the subject DN from their SSL certificate. In these kinds of situations the broker will use this assigned (i.e. validated) username for any queues created with the connection. In the past the queue's username would have been left blank. ## 2.23.1 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12351846&projectId=12315920) Highlights: - [ARTEMIS-3856](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3856) - Failed to change channel state to ReadyForWriting : java.util.ConcurrentModificationException ## 2.23.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12351677). Highlights: - [management operations](web-server.md#management) for the embedded web server. - [JakartaEE 10 Support](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3700) - [BugFix: High cpu usage on ReadWrite locks](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3848) ## 2.22.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12351488). Highlights: - The default `producer-window-size` on `cluster-connection` was changed to 1MB to mitigate potential OutOfMemoryErrors in environments with with high latency networking. ## 2.21.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12351083&projectId=12315920). Highlights: - [MQTT 5](mqtt.md) is now supported. - A new set of [performance tools](perf-tools.md) are now available to evaluate throughput and Response Under Load performance of Artemis - Diverts now support [multiple addresses](diverts.md#composite-divert) - [Runtime configuration reloading](config-reload.md) now supports bridges. - [Paging](paging.md#paging-mode) can now be configured by message count. #### Upgrading from older versions 1. Due to XML schema changes to correct an inaccurate domain name 2 files will need to be updated: 1. `etc/bootstrap.xml` 2. `etc/management.xml` In both files change the XML namespace from `activemq.org` to `activemq.apache.org`, e.g. in `bootsrap.xml` use: ```xml ``` And in `management.xml` use: ```xml ``` 2. **If you're using [JDBC persistence](persistence.md#jdbc-persistence)** then due to the changes in [ARTEMIS-3679](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3679) you'll need to update your database. The column `HOLDER_EXPIRATION_TIME` on the `NODE_MANAGER_STORE`changed from a `TIMESTAMP` to a `BIGINT` (or `NUMBER(19)` on Oracle). You will have to stop any broker that is accessing that table and either drop it or execute the proper `ALTER TABLE` statement for your database. If you drop the table then it will be automatically recreated when broker restarts and repopulated with a new, auto-generated node ID. ## 2.20.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=12350581&projectId=12315920). Highlights: - **Java 11 is now required.** ## 2.19.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12350519). Highlights: - New ability to replay [retained journal](persistence.md#journal-retention) records via the management API. - New environment/system property to set the "key" for masked passwords when using the [default codec](masking-passwords.md#the-default-codec). - Ability to disable [message-load-balancing and still allow redistribution](clusters.md#configuring-cluster-connections) via the new `OFF_WITH_REDISTRIBUTION` type. - MQTT session state can now be cleaned up automatically to avoid excessive accumulation in situations where client's don't clean up their own sessions. - Distribute full Jakarta Messaging 3.0 client in the `lib/client` directory along with a new example of how to use it in `examples/features/standard/queue-jakarta`. ## 2.18.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12349689). Highlights: - [Dual Mirror](amqp-broker-connections.md#dual-mirror-disaster-recovery) support improving capabilities on AMQP Mirror for Disaster Recovery - [Journal Retention](persistence.md#journal-retention) - [Replication integrated with Zookeeper](ha.md#pluggable-quorum-vote-replication-configurations) - [Connection Routers](connection-routers.md) - [Concurrency](core-bridges.md#configuring-bridges) configuration for core bridges. - [XPath filter expressions](filter-expressions.md#xpath) (for parity with ActiveMQ "Classic"). #### Upgrading from older versions 1. Due to [ARTEMIS-3367](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3367) the default setting for `verifyHost` on *core connectors* has been changed from `false` to `true`. This means that **core clients will now expect the `CN` or Subject Alternative Name values of the broker's SSL certificate to match the hostname in the client's URL**. This impacts all core-based clients including core JMS clients and core connections between cluster nodes. Although this is a "breaking" change, *not* performing hostname verification is a security risk (e.g. due to man-in-the-middle attacks). Enabling it by default aligns core client behavior with industry standards. To deal with this you can do one of the following: - Update your SSL certificates to use a hostname which matches the hostname in the client's URL. This is the recommended option with regard to security. - Update any connector using `sslEnabled=true` to also use `verifyHost=false`. Using this option means that you won't get the extra security of hostname verification, but no certificates will need to change. This essentially restores the previous default behavior. For additional details about please refer to section 3.1 of [RFC 2818 "HTTP over TLS"](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2818#section-3.1). 2. Due to [ARTEMIS-3117](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3117) SSL keystore and truststores are no longer reloaded automatically. Previously an instance of `javax.net.ssl.SSLContext` was created for *every* connection. This would implicitly pick up any changes to the keystore and truststore for any new connection. However, this was grossly inefficient and therefore didn't scale well with lots of connections. The behavior was changed so that just one `javax.net.ssl.SSLContext` is created for each `acceptor`. However, one can still reload keystores & truststores from disk without restarting the broker. Simply use the `reload` management operation on the `acceptor`. This is available via JMX, the web console, Jolokia, etc. Here's an example `curl` command you can use with Jolokia to invoke the `artemis` acceptor's `reload` operation: ```bash curl --user admin:admin --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"type":"exec", "mbean":"org.apache.activemq.artemis:broker=\"0.0.0.0\",component=acceptors,name=\"artemis\"", "operation":"reload"}' http://localhost:8161/console/jolokia/exec ``` Of course you'll want to adjust the username & password as well as the broker and acceptor names for your environment. 3. The "rate" metric for queues was removed from the web console via [ARTEMIS-3397](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3397). This was a follow-up from [ARTEMIS-2909](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2909) in 2.16.0 (referenced in the [upgrade instructions below](#2160)). The "rate" metric mistakenly left visible on the web console after it was removed from the management API. 4. Due to [ARTEMIS-3141](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3141), [ARTEMIS-3128](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3128), & [ARTEMIS-3175](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3175) the data returned for any "list" or "browse" management method which return message data, including those exposed via the web console, will have their return data truncated by default. This is done to avoid adverse conditions with large volumes of message data which could potentially negatively impact broker stability. The `management-message-attribute-size-limit` address-setting controls this behavior. If you wish to restore the previous (and potentially dangerous behavior) then you can specify `-1` for this. It is `256` by default. ## 2.17.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12349326). Highlights: - [Message-level authorization](broker-plugins.md#using-the-brokermessageauthorizationplugin) similar to ActiveMQ 5.x. - A count of addresses and queues is now available from the management API. - You can now reload the broker's configuration from disk via the management API rather than waiting for the periodic disk scan to pick it up - Performance improvements on libaio journal. - New command-line option to transfer messages. - Performance improvements for the wildcard address manager. - JDBC datasource property values can now be masked. - Lots of usability improvements to the Hawtio 2 based web console introduced in 2.16.0 - New management method to create a core bridge using JSON-based configuration input. - [Jakarta Messaging 2.0 & 3.0 artifacts for Jakarta EE 8 & 9 respectively](https://blogs.apache.org/activemq/entry/activemq-artemis-embraces-jakarta-ee). ## 2.16.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12348718). Highlights: - Configurable namespace for temporary queues - [AMQP Server Connectivity](amqp-broker-connections.md) - "Basic" [`SecurityManager` implementation](security.md#basic-security-manager) that supports replication - Consumer window size support for individual STOMP clients - Improved JDBC connection management - New web console based on Hawtio 2 - Performance optimizations (i.e. caching) for authentication and authorization - Support for admin objects in the JCA resource adapter to facilitate deployment into 3rd-party Java EE application servers - Ability to prevent an acceptor from automatically starting #### Upgrading from older versions 1. Due to [ARTEMIS-2893](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2893) the fundamental way user management was implemented had to change to avoid data integrity issues related to concurrent modification. From a user's perspective two main things changed: 1. User management is no longer possible using the `artemis user` commands when the broker is **offline**. Of course users are still free to modify the properties files directly in this situation. 2. The parameters of the `artemis user` commands changed. Instead of using something like this: ```sh ./artemis user add --user guest --password guest --role admin ``` Use this instead: ```sh ./artemis user add --user-command-user guest --user-command-password guest --role admin ``` In short, use `user-command-user` in lieu of `user` and `user-command-password` in lieu of `password`. Both `user` and `password` parameters now apply to the connection used to send the command to the broker. For additional details see [ARTEMIS-2893](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2893) and [ARTEMIS-3010](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3010) 2. Due to [ARTEMIS-2909](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-2909) the "rate" metric was removed from the management API for queues. In short, the `org.apache.activemq.artemis.core.server.Queue#getRate` method is for slow-consumer detection and is designed for _internal_ use only. Furthermore, it's too opaque to be trusted by a remote user as it only returns the number of message added to the queue since *the last time it was called*. The problem here is that the user calling it doesn't know when it was invoked last. Therefore, they could be getting the rate of messages added for the last 5 minutes or the last 5 milliseconds. This can lead to inconsistent and misleading results. There are three main ways for users to track rates of message production and consumption (in recommended order): 1. Use a [metrics](metrics.md) plugin. This is the most feature-rich and flexible way to track broker metrics, although it requires tools (e.g. Prometheus) to store the metrics and display them (e.g. Grafana). 2. Invoke the `getMessageCount()` and `getMessagesAdded()` management methods and store the returned values along with the time they were retrieved. A time-series database is a great tool for this job. This is exactly what tools like Prometheus do. That data can then be used to create informative graphs, etc. using tools like Grafana. Of course, one can skip all the tools and just do some simple math to calculate rates based on the last time the counts were retrieved. 3. Use the broker's [message counters](management.md#message-counters). Message counters are the broker's simple way of providing historical information about the queue. They provide similar results to the previous solutions, but with less flexibility since they only track data while the broker is up and there's not really any good options for graphing. ## 2.15.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12348568). Highlights: - Ability to use FQQN syntax for both `security-settings` and JNDI lookup - Support pausing dispatch during group rebalance (to avoid potential out-of-order consumption) - Socks5h support ## 2.14.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12348290). Highlights: - Management methods to update diverts - Ability to "disable" a queue so that messages are not routed to it - Support JVM GC & thread metrics - Support for resetting queue properties by unsetting them in `broker.xml` - Undeploy diverts by removing them from `broker.xml` - Add `addressMemoryUsagePercentage` and `addressSize` as metrics #### Upgrading from older versions This is likely a rare situation, but it's worth mentioning here anyway. Prior to 2.14.0 if you configured a parameter on a `queue` in `broker.xml` (e.g. `max-consumers`) and then later *removed* that setting the configured value you set would remain. This has changed in 2.14.0 via ARTEMIS-2797. Any value that is not explicitly set in `broker.xml` will be set back to either the static default or the dynamic default configured in the address-settings (e.g. via `default-max-consumers` in this example). Therefore, ensure any existing queues have all the needed parameters set in `broker.xml` values before upgrading. ## 2.13.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12348088). Highlights: - Management methods for an address' duplicate ID cache to check the cache's size and clear it - Support for [min/max expiry-delay](message-expiry.md#configuring-expiry-delay) - [Per-acceptor security domains](security.md#per-acceptor-security-domains) - Command-line `check` tool for checking the health of a broker - Support disabling metrics per address via the [`enable-metrics` address setting](address-settings.md) - Improvements to the [audit logging](logging.md#configuring-audit-logging) - Speed optimizations for the `HierarchicalObjectRepository`, an internal object used to store address and security settings #### Upgrading from older versions Version 2.13.0 added new [audit logging](logging.md#configuring-audit-logging) which is logged at `INFO` level and can be very verbose. The `logging.properties` shipped with this new version is set up to filter this out by default. If your `logging.properties` isn't updated appropriately this audit logging will likely appear in your console and `artemis.log` file assuming you're using a logging configuration close to the default. Add this to your `logging.properties`: ``` # to enable audit change the level to INFO logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.base.level=ERROR logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.base.handlers=AUDIT_FILE logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.base.useParentHandlers=false logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.resource.level=ERROR logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.resource.handlers=AUDIT_FILE logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.resource.useParentHandlers=false logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.message.level=ERROR logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.message.handlers=AUDIT_FILE logger.org.apache.activemq.audit.message.useParentHandlers=false ... #Audit logger handler.AUDIT_FILE=org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.PeriodicRotatingFileHandler handler.AUDIT_FILE.level=INFO handler.AUDIT_FILE.properties=suffix,append,autoFlush,fileName handler.AUDIT_FILE.suffix=.yyyy-MM-dd handler.AUDIT_FILE.append=true handler.AUDIT_FILE.autoFlush=true handler.AUDIT_FILE.fileName=${artemis.instance}/log/audit.log handler.AUDIT_FILE.formatter=AUDIT_PATTERN formatter.AUDIT_PATTERN=org.jboss.logmanager.formatters.PatternFormatter formatter.AUDIT_PATTERN.properties=pattern formatter.AUDIT_PATTERN.pattern=%d [AUDIT](%t) %s%E%n ``` ## 2.12.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12346675).

Highlights: - Support [retroactive addresses](retroactive-addresses.md). - Support downstream federated [queues](federation-queue.md#configuring-downstream-federation) and [addresses](federation-address.md#configuring-downstream-federation). - Make security manager [configurable via XML](security.md#custom-security-manager). - Support pluggable SSL [TrustManagerFactory](configuring-transports.md#configuring-netty-ssl). - Add plugin support for federated queues/addresses. - Support `com.sun.jndi.ldap.read.timeout` in [LDAPLoginModule](security.md#ldaploginmodule). ## 2.10.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12345602). This was mainly a bug-fix release with a notable dependency change impacting version upgrade. #### Upgrading from 2.9.0 Due to the WildFly dependency upgrade the broker start scripts/configuration need to be adjusted after upgrading. ##### On \*nix Locate this statement in `bin/artemis`: ``` WILDFLY_COMMON="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/wildfly-common-1.5.1.Final.jar" ``` This needs to be replaced with this: ``` WILDFLY_COMMON="$ARTEMIS_HOME/lib/wildfly-common-1.5.2.Final.jar" ``` ##### On Windows Locate this part of `JAVA_ARGS` in `etc/artemis.profile.cmd` respectively `bin/artemis-service.xml`: ``` %ARTEMIS_HOME%\lib\wildfly-common-1.5.1.Final.jar ``` This needs to be replaced with this: ``` %ARTEMIS_HOME%\lib\wildfly-common-1.5.2.Final.jar ``` ## 2.9.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12345527). This was a light release. It included a handful of bug fixes, a few improvements, and one major new feature. Highlights: - Support [exporting metrics](metrics.md). ## 2.8.1 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12345432).

Due to changes from [ARTEMIS-1644](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-1644) any `acceptor` that needs to be compatible with HornetQ and/or Artemis 1.x clients needs to have `anycastPrefix=jms.queue.;multicastPrefix=jms.topic.` in the `acceptor` url. This prefix used to be configured automatically behind the scenes when the broker detected these old types of clients, but that broke certain use-cases with no possible work-around. See [ARTEMIS-1644](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-1644) for more details. ## 2.4.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12341540). Highlights: - [JMX configuration via XML](management.md#role-based-authorisation-for-jmx) rather than having to use system properties via command line or start script. - Configuration of [max frame payload length for STOMP web-socket](protocols-interoperability.md#stomp-over-web-sockets). - Ability to configure HA using JDBC persistence. - Implement [role-based access control for management objects](management.md). #### Upgrading from 2.3.0 1. Create `/etc/management.xml`. At the very least, the file must contain this: ```xml ``` This configures role based authorisation for JMX. Read more in the [Management](management.md) documentation. 1. If configured, remove the Jolokia war file from the `web` element in `/etc/bootstrap.xml`: ```xml ``` This is no longer required as the Jolokia REST interface is now integrated into the console web application. If the following is absent and you desire to deploy the web console then add: ```xml ``` **Note:** the Jolokia REST interface URL will now be at `http://:/console/jolokia` ## 2.3.0 [Full release notes](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12341247).
