## RabbitMQ 3.8.19
|
||
|
|
||
|
RabbitMQ `3.8.19` is a maintenance release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Obtaining Packages
|
||
|
|
||
|
RabbitMQ releases are distributed via [GitHub](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases), [Cloudsmith](https://cloudsmith.io/~rabbitmq/repos/),
|
||
|
and [PackageCloud](https://packagecloud.io/rabbitmq).
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Erlang/OTP Compatibility Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
This release [requires Erlang 23.2](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html) and [supports Erlang 24](https://blog.rabbitmq.com/posts/2021/03/erlang-24-support-roadmap/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Provisioning Latest Erlang Releases](https://www.rabbitmq.com/which-erlang.html#erlang-repositories) explains
|
||
|
what package repositories and tools can be used to provision modern Erlang versions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Upgrade and Compatibility Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
See the [Upgrading guide](https://www.rabbitmq.com/upgrade.html) for general documentation on upgrades and
|
||
|
[RabbitMQ change log](https://www.rabbitmq.com/changelog.html) for release notes of other releases.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If upgrading from a`3.7.x` release, see [3.8.0 release notes](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v3.8.0)
|
||
|
upgrade and compatibility notes first.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If upgrading from a `3.6.x` or older [release series](https://www.rabbitmq.com/versions.html), first upgrade
|
||
|
to [`3.7.27`](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/releases/tag/v3.7.27) and then to this version.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|

## Changes Worth Mentioning
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Core Server
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Enhancements
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Binding recovery on node startup is now more efficient. This means in clusters with a lot of
|
||
|
queues and/or bindings, nodes start quicker.
|
||
|
|
||
|
GitHub issue: [#3137](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/3137)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Plugin directory paths are now deduplicated, so if a single directory is specified
|
||
|
more than ones, the node won't complain about duplicate plugins.
|
||
|
|
||
|
GitHub issue: [#3155](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/3155)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Startup banner and log entries now use path separators more consistently on Windows.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Thanks to Linda @LindaLawton Lawton for pointing out the inconsistency.
|
||
|
|
||
|
GitHub issue: [#3149](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/3149)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Shovel Plugin
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Bug Fixes
|
||
|
|
||
|
* When dynamic Shovels are started the plugin now acquires a distributed lock.
|
||
|
This is generally not necessary but helps avoid duplicate Shovels being started
|
||
|
via import of a definition file on every cluster node during cluster formation.
|
||
|

||
