Upgrade to ejabberd 21.07¶

Database changes¶

Add missing indexes to SQL `sr_group` table¶

The sr_group table in SQL databases got a new index.

If you store Shared Roster Groups in a SQL database, you can create the index corresponding to your database type, check the example SQL queries in the commit.

MySQL Backend Patch for scram-sha512¶

The MySQL database schema has improved to support scram-sha512 (#3582)

If you have a MySQL database, you can update your schema with:

ALTER TABLE users MODIFY serverkey varchar(128) NOT NULL DEFAULT ’’;
ALTER TABLE users MODIFY salt varchar(128) NOT NULL DEFAULT ’’;

API change¶

Change in `srg_create`¶

That command API has changed the name argument to label, for coherence with the changes in the ejabberd Web Admin page.

Check ejabberdctl help srg_create or the API page.

Command-line change¶

Changes in `ejabberdctl help`¶

The help command has changed its usage and results.

If you use that command in some automatic script, please check ejabberdctl help and adapt your scripts accordingly.
