Hi,

when upgrading to DHIS version 2.22 remember to have a look at the upgrade
notes. The most noteworthy ones are:


- The DHIS 2 configuration file is now called *dhis.conf* and has a range
of new and renamed properties. The hibernate.properties configuration file
is deprecated. Consult the installation guide
<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/implementer/html/ch08s03.html#d5e500>
for details.

- A configuration property *encryption.password* must be set in case you
would like to take advantage of the new attribute value encryption feature.
You also need to install the "Java Cryptography Extension (JCE)" on your
server in order to encrypt information. Consult the encryption installation
guide
<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/implementer/html/ch08s06.html>
for details.

- The *password* for the SMTP server under Settings > Email and the *remote
server* configuration under Settings > Synchronization must be re-entered.

- Apps are automatically served from the Web API. The option for serving
apps from custom server directory / URL have been removed. If you have apps
which are not served through the Web API you can simply re-install them.
