Viewer 1.23.5 Update Available

Posted by Status Desk on October 15th, 2009 at 11:42 am PDT

We recently made several changes to the Second Life servers to address a potential security issue. To take advantage of the recent server upgrades and ensure that Second Life functions as you expect, we have released a new version of the Second Life Viewer.

Residents using the Official and Release Candidate versions of the 1.23.4 Viewer are required to update to version 1.23.5. Those of you still using version 1.22.11 will be offered version 1.23.5 as an optional update. If you choose to remain on 1.22.11, you may notice changes in the way notecard editing behaves. If you use a viewer not created by Linden Lab, you may also see changes in the way notecard editing behaves. To avoid any potential confusion caused by these behavioral changes, we strongly recommend that you immediately update to the new 1.23.5 Second Life Viewer.

We apologize for any inconvenience this update may cause.

[COMPLETED] Rolling Restart for 1.30.2

Posted by Status Desk on October 12th, 2009 at 12:39 pm PDT

Server 1.30.2 is scheduled for deployment this week to address an important security issue. The schedule is as follows:
* 2009-10-13, Tuesday, 7:00am - Even sims (50% of grid) - [Complete]
* 2009-10-14, Wednesday, 7:00am - Odd sims (50% of grid) - [Complete]

As with all of our server deploys, each region will be restarted once during one of the rolling restart periods. Most regions should be down no more than 5-10 minutes, although some fraction of the regions will take 20-30 minutes to upgrade. If your region stays down for more than 30 minutes, please contact support. Each region will receive warnings starting 5 minutes before that region is restarted.

Release notes for the 1.30 server versions are available here: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Beta_Server/1.30
