Upgrade notes
Here's some important information you should know about:
New login experience with two-step verification
To improve the security of the {Product name} login experience, we’ve added a second authentication layer. If you experience any issues with the new login process, you can switch to the legacy login experience by setting the JVM system property atlassian.authentication.legacy.mode
to true
.
Encrypt your password
If you've used the CLI tool to encrypt your password, make sure to manually update your crowd.cfg.xml
file from:
<property name="jdbc.password.decrypter.classname">com.atlassian.db.config.password.ciphers.algorithm.AesOnlyAlgorithmCipher</property>
