Confluence 3.4.7 is a bug-fix release.

This release solves a problem that caused the Confluence index build to fail without reporting any errors. Symptoms of the problem included missing blog posts, and missing pages in the list returned by the Content by Label macro. This is now fixed.

We have also fixed some issues experienced when editing a page or document in Word.

  • When using Firefox, editing pages in Word failed if the page title contained special characters.
  • Editing pages in Word failed for long path names. This problem could occur when the combination of Confluence space name and page title exceeded a certain number of characters. (The exact number depended on your environment.) Editing attachments with long path names in Office also failed.

Don't have Confluence 3.4 yet?

Take a look at the new features and other highlights in the Confluence 3.4 Release Notes.

Release Notices

Upgrading from a previous version of Confluence should be fairly straightforward. Please read the Confluence 3.4.7 upgrade notes. We strongly recommend that you back up your confluence.home directory and database before upgrading.
