Confluence Docs 3.0 : Upgrade Guide 2.5.8 This page last changed on Oct 02, 2007 by smaddox. ### Who should upgrade? Confluence 2.5.8 is a highly recommended upgrade that resolves some issues in the user management framework and a memory leak in Confluence 2.5.x. You can download Confluence 2.5.8 from http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/ConfluenceDownloadCenter.jspa. This upgrade is free for all customers with active Confluence software maintenance as at 3 October 2007. If you are running a release older than 2.5 and you want to upgrade, you should upgrade directly to 2.5.8, referring to the upgrade procedure below. ### Upgrade procedure Upgrading Confluence should be fairly straightforward. We strongly recommend that you back up your `confluence.home` directory and database before upgrading! If you are upgrading from Confluence 2.2.x or a later version, please use the Confluence Upgrade Instructions. If you are upgrading directly from 2.1 or earlier, you should also read the 2.2 Release Notes for warnings about the 2.1 -> 2.2 upgrade.
