Fineract 1.6 Upgrade Notes

[Bharath Gowda <bg...@mifos.org>]

Hello Everyone,

Happy to see many community members upgrading to Fineract 1.6

Below are a few Upgrade notes for users who are facing upgrading issues

1. Fineract 1.6 Release tag (without  Liquibase   ) is  here
<https://github.com/apache/fineract/tree/1.6.0>

2. Avoid Upgrading for any version below 1.6 to the latest develop branch
directly

3. Always upgrade to Fineract 1.6 (*point-1*) and then update to develop
branch (for smoother Liquibase upgrades)

4. Required prerequisites for Fineract 1.6 is
Mysql 8 / MariaDB 10.6
Java >= 17

5. Fineract 1.6 doesn't run on Mysql 5.7, please upgrade to the latest
version mentioned in* step 4*


@Francis Guchie <fr...@gmail.com> please share other points that
you have observed during the upgrade


We will come up with an official upgrade document on the latest release
along with the Mifos UI release which is around the corner :)

Hope this email helps until then :)
