Notice of upcoming GovCMS D10 update 3.23.0 Apr 15, 2025 06:00 - Apr 19, 2025 10:00 AEST

Advice
We would like to inform you of the tentative dates for the upcoming GovCMS Drupal 10 (D10) release and deployment. This release will see an upgrade of Drupal Core from 10.3.13 to 10.3.14.

The final release date is subject to change, as it will be determined by the testing outcomes. The date will be confirmed when the distribution is released and the release notes are expected to be sent on Monday 14 April 2025.

As a reminder, a SaaS deployment block is in place ONLY while we update the production branches. During this time, you will still be able to develop and deploy to non-production feature branches. We are wanting to give you as much lead time as possible, should you need to adjust your timeframes.

PaaS deployments schedules are not impacted.

Tentative deployment schedule:
- Deployment to commence from 6am Tuesday 15 April 2025 and will be conducted throughout the daytime.
- Production branches completed by 10am Wednesday 16 April 2025
- Non-Production branches completed by 10am Thursday 17 April 2025

- While the production block is on, you will still be able to develop and deploy to non-production feature branches.
- PaaS deployments schedules are not impacted.

❗ IMPORTANT NOTICE 2: Update local environments
- Ensure you update your local environments to the latest release. Not rebasing your codebase results in mismatched database configuration causing errors in forklifts and deployments.

❗ IMPORTANT NOTICE 3: For customers with configuration management enabled
- The latest configuration from your production database has been created for you in GitLab in a branch called action-required/latest-config-export.
- You need to review and test the changes in the merge request. Once you are satisfied, please check the “Delete source branch” box and click “Merge”.
- This MUST be done before any new commits.
- All subsequent deployments will be blocked in the CI pipeline until this merge request branch is deleted
- Not merging the latest configuration provided could result in your new database configuration reverting to an older version when you next deploy, potentially causing issues for your website.
- If no merge request is lodged after a release then no configuration has changed and no further action is required.
