Exponential 6.0.14 #

Released 2026-06-07. Tag v6.0.14.

Read this page if you want to run on MongoDB, use the upgrade file check, or upgrade from 6.0.13.

In short #

MongoDB 8 is a database next to MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite, with a compatibility layer, setup wizard support, an index script and conversion helpers. The default installation moves to package version 6.0.14, and the release file list for the upgrade check is regenerated.

Upgrading #

No action needed for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite sites. Before you choose MongoDB, read what works and the known limits in MongoDB as the database.

Added #

• bin/shell/generatefilelist.sh and share/filelist.md5, the release file list that the upgrade check compares against. See File consistency check. (bd11387b68)

Updated #

• MongoDB 8: a database adapter and a kernel compatibility layer, a general WHERE parser, copy, move and add location, integer casts in WHERE and SELECT in arrayQuery, the autoload order of expMongoDB and expMongoSchema, and the settings that load its schema handler. See MongoDB as the database. (af5761fdd8, 6a192392e9, c72a94f69e, bd81c3646f, b5a73f285f)
• The setup wizard has a database name field, to authenticate against a specific database. See MongoDB as the database. (78bf407ed5)
• SQLite and PostgreSQL get portable SQL instead of engine-only branches. See MongoDB as the database. (e0d617f28e)
• Setup installs MySQL on shared hosting without root access, and keeps MongoDB-only code out of the SQL paths. (93cdd0cf47)
• The PostgreSQL setup wizard can be run again on an existing database. (7773850ade)
• The SQLite schema reader uses the PRAGMA API in fetchTableFields and fetchTableIndexes. See SQLite database support. (af62dcf3f6)
• generatefilelist.sh has a working --include option, and the file list holds the hashes of 6.0.14. See File consistency check. (365c121e7e, 4e0b21ae2d, 9b9c5bafcb)
• Default installations use package version 6.0.14 instead of 6.0.10. (46540dc84e)
• No crash from implode(null), and the role_limitations key is right in the user cache. (eea23b654a)
• Admin: .length replaces the deprecated jQuery .size(), js_class_languages is set in the node full view, and browse.tpl prints persistent data values of any type. (6e1167795c, 95f2c1af8d, 1d74b95640)
• The diff engine has better types. See PHP 8 support. (3684e364f2)
• The standard design shows the Exponential logo, and the copyright reads 2025 - 2026. See The product is called Exponential. (d8fbef61bd, ab2811ce2c)
