Confluence Docs 3.0 : Release Notes 1.2.1 This page last changed on Jun 29, 2006 by david.soul@atlassian.com. Confluence 1.2.1 is a maintenance release that fixes some bugs that users may have encountered using Confluence 1.2. It incorporates improvements to performance for large Confluence installations, and fixes bugs related to the remote API, over-use of disk space, and a few annoying errors users were experiencing when setting up a new Confluence instance. 1.2.1 is a free upgrade for all existing Confluence customers. #### Who should upgrade? The issues resolved below are all either fixes to problems that have effected small numbers of users, or improve areas of Confluence that may not be used in your installation. As such, we recommend you read through the release notes and decide whether this upgrade is necessary. If 1.2 is working fine, and none of the issues below are bothering you, there is no need to upgrade. #### Upgrade Procedure Upgrading Confluence should be pretty easy. If you are upgrading from Confluence 1.2, you can find instructions here. We strongly recommend that you backup your `confluence.home` directory and database before upgrading! If you are upgrading from Confluence 1.1.2 or earlier, be sure to read the upgrade instructions in the Confluence 1.2 release notes. #### Changes in 1.2.1 See also: Issues Resolved for 1.2.1 Remote API Fixes getBlogEntries() will no longer erroneously return SQL Timestamps instead of date objects — CONF-1756) getPage() will now successfully retrieve a previous page version — CONF-1721 renderContent() can now successfully render a page containing the {blog-posts} macro — CONF-1717 Setup Fixes Some users were encountering the following error during setup: "Unable to store Trigger with name: 'backupTrigger' and group: 'DEFAULT', because one already exists with this identification."
