Domibus product lines aligned with release of Domibus 5.1.4
We are pleased to announce the release of Domibus 5.1.4, the European Commission's sample software for the eDelivery Access Point. This version synchronises the 5.1.x product series with the latest fixes implemented in Domibus 5.0.8. It introduces several bug fixes, performance improvements and security enhancements. We strongly recommend upgrading to this version.
In addition the baseline changes listed in the release announcement for Domibus 5.0.8, which are also present in this version, new features and improvements include an endpoint for refreshing DSS Trusted lists, accessible via a POST request. The version also brings new properties for the Quartz data source in Tomcat and renames various data sources in the WildFly configuration files. The self-sending mechanism has been enhanced, and a new security improvement allows users to disable the use of system default certificates (known as cacerts) when downloading Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) over HTTPS.
Domibus 5.1.4 is backward compatible with version 5.1.3, making the upgrade process smooth. Although not mandatory, upgrading is highly recommended to benefit from the latest fixes and improvements.
Security is a priority in this release. Users must update their application servers to the latest versions after installing any Domibus package labelled as "Full Distribution" to ensure system security.
The technical documentation for Domibus 5.1.4 is available online on a new site and through a consolidated PDF.

Important known issue to note
Under certain conditions, Domibus 5.1.4 creates an incorrect application address after the user logs into the Domibus Admin Console, rendering the Admin Console unusable. This affects Domibus installations where the Admin Console is exposed through a URL that uses a different base context than /domibus
. This can happen, e.g., when using a reverse proxy. In such cases, a user logging in via a URL such as https://intragate.ec.europa.eu/myapp/edelivery-admin/[...]
will be incorrectly redirected to https://intragate.ec.europa.eu/domibus/[...]
which will not work. The impact is limited to the Domibus Admin Console, the rest of the application functions correctly.
The release date for Domibus 5.1.5, which will address this issue, will be announced soon.
