This release provides bugfixes, updates AND features.

As we've added many new features and enhancements as well as several bugfixes, we STRONGLY recommend, that you have a look at our upgrade guide, before upgrading your installation to 1.1.1! Please do NEVER update your production system WITHOUT test your application locally or on a test system.

Notes

  • Please be aware, that our Mac OS X installer actually is NOT aware of changes you've made to your configuration files. So it is necessary to BACKUP all configuration files you've customised, to not loose your changes.
  • For detailed installation instructions look at our documentation
  • Linux packages are split in runtime and distribution packages. So please install both of them. Runtime packages provide appserver-runtime which the appserver-dist package depends on
