Version 4.0.12

Released on 2020-01-30.

Note

Please consult the Upgrade Notes before upgrading from CrateDB 3.x or earlier. Before upgrading to 4.0.12 you should be running a CrateDB cluster that is at least on 3.0.7.

We recommend that you upgrade to the latest 3.3 release before moving to 4.0.12.

If you want to perform a rolling upgrade, your current CrateDB version number must be at least Version 4.0.2. Any upgrade from a version prior to this will require a full restart upgrade.

When restarting, CrateDB will migrate indexes to a newer format. Depending on the amount of data, this may delay node start-up time.

Warning

Tables that were created prior CrateDB 3.x will not function with 4.x and must be recreated before moving to 4.x.x.

You can recreate tables using COPY TO and COPY FROM or by inserting the data into a new table.

Before upgrading, you should back up your data.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that would lead to insertion of records via INSERT INTO ... (SELECT ... FROM ..) and INSERT INTO ... VALUES (...) into different partitions while using the same partition by value. This occurs only when the partition key is an object field of the timestamp data type.

  • Fixed an issue that caused queries on more than one relation and a literal FALSE in the WHERE clause to match all rows instead of no rows.

  • Fixed the following issues in the Admin UI:

    • Fixed an issue that prevents the value for nested partition columns showing up in the table partitions overview.

    • Fixed capitalization of Shards tab label

    • Updated keywords list so that they are recognised and painted in red.

  • Fixed a bug which could lead to stuck queries when an error happens inside distributed execution plans, e.g. a CircuitBreakingException due to exceeded memory usage.

  • Fixed an issue that resulted in the values for nested partitioned columns to be missing from the result.

  • Fixed an issue that caused SELECT * to include nested columns of type geo_shape instead of only selecting top-level columns.

  • Fixed an issue that caused subscript expressions on top of child relations in which an object column is selected to fail.

  • Fixed a ClassCastException that occurred when querying certain columns from information_schema.tables, sys.jobs_log or sys.jobs_metrics with a client connected via PostgreSQL wire protocol.

  • Fixed a regression introduced in 4.0.11 which caused a ClassCastException when querying sys.allocations.
