Modified rules engine to use message bus proxy
As part of this improvement, the "spring.configs" property in portal.properties has been modified. If spring.configs has been modified in portal-ext.properties, please make sure your customized spring.configs property is configured to load all necessary spring files.
Service builder incorrectly generates ORDER BY for compound primary keys
To apply this bug fix to custom services, please run Service Builder again in the extension environment and for each portlet that uses Service Builder.
Added a Language Filter to speed up page loading time
This new feature is enabled by default. To revert back to the old behavior, set the following in portal(-ext).properties:
com.liferay.portal.servlet.filters.language.LanguageFilter=false
Property values changes when multiple plugin hooks modify portal.properties
If you are currently overriding any property in portal.properties that accepts a comma separated set of values with a plugin hook, please note that the value of the property will now be merged with the original value in portal.property. If you need to completely remove the original value from the property, please use a portal-ext.properties files to first remove the original value.
Updated BasePersistence to take advantage of generics
To take advantage of this improvement if your portlets, please run service builder again. To take advantage of this improvement in an extension environment, the extension environment must be regenerated and service builder must be run again.
Added option to use reCAPTCHA for captcha checks
As part of this improvement, captcha(-ext).properties is no longer used and the properties within this file has been moved into portal(-ext).properties.
The following is a list of the properties in captcha(-ext).properties followed by it's corresponding property in portal(-ext).properties.
cap.image.height - captcha.engine.simplecaptcha.height
cap.image.width - captcha.engine.simplecaptcha.width
cap.text.produce - captcha.engine.simplecaptcha.text.producers
CAS does not work in clustered environments
In order to address this issue, the Yale CAS client has been replaced with Jasig CAS client. The Jasig CAS client does not use a validate URL but uses a server URL instead. The server URL should point to the location of the CAS server. For example, https://localhost:8443/cas-web.
The Control Panel's user interface (or Enterprise Admin portlet in 5.1.8) has been updated to reflect this change. The server URL setting must be set for CAS to continue working.
If you are configuring CAS using portal(-ext).property, add the following property to your property file:
cas.server.url=https://localhost:8443/cas-web
The old property, cas.validate.url, can safely be removed.
Unable to override ScreenNameValidator through hooks
In portal-ext.properties, if you have
users.screen.name.validator=com.liferay.portal.security.auth.ScreenNameValidator
this line must be changed to
users.screen.name.validator=com.liferay.portal.security.auth.DefaultScreenNameValidator
Unable to override ScreenNameGenerator through hooks
In portal-ext.properties, if you have
users.screen.name.generator=com.liferay.portal.security.auth.ScreenNameGenerator
this line must be changed to
users.screen.name.generator=com.liferay.portal.security.auth.DefaultScreenNameGenerator
Document Library may incorrectly set a document's mime type
The property "mime.types" in portal.property is no longer applicable and has been removed. Additional MIME types should now be added to the file META-INF/mime.types.
/html/portal/css.jsp has been split into multiple files for easier customization
The file /html/portal/css_uniform.jsp has been moved to /html/portal/css/portal/uniform.jspf. If this file has been customized and /html/portal/css.jsp has not been customized, this file must be renamed.
Grammar mistake in custom CSS instructions
The language key "insert-custom-css-that-will-loaded-after-the-theme" has been changed to "insert-custom-css-that-will-be-loaded-after-the-theme". Custom code that uses the old language key should update to the new language key.
Added CAS authentication by email address
This improvement may cause existing CAS authentication to stop working if the following appears in portal(-ext).properties:
company.security.auth.type=emailAddress
or if "How do users authenticate?" in the Control Panel's (Enterprise Admin portlet in 5.1 EE) settings section is set to "By Email Address". These settings were previously ignored when CAS is used. To ensure CAS continues to work correctly, please remove company.security.auth.type from portal(-ext).properties and set "How do users authenticate?" to "By Screen Name".
Added a separate channel for ClusterLink control
The portal properties
cluster.link.channel.properties.X
has been renamed to
cluster.link.channel.properties.transport.X
For example, cluster.link.channel.properties.0 has been renamed to cluster.link.channel.properties.transport.0. If these properties has been set in portal(-ext).properties, they must be renamed or else cluster link may not work correctly.
