Important: Since major releases of Shopware can lead to incompatibilities with extensions (plugins/apps/themes) due to "breaking changes", we recommend testing such major updates in advance in a test system or a staging environment and also creating a complete backup of the shop in advance.


Shopware 6.6 and ThemeWare® 3.0

You can find all information about the Shopware update and ThemeWare® in our following articles:


Important note

Make sure that all extensions are compatible with Shopware 6.6 and work without errors before you activate them in your live system! JavaScript errors are one of the most common reasons for errors in the Shopware storefront and there have been some changes in Shopware 6.6.

Tip: Use the ThemeWare® Debugging in case of bugs in the storefront. With this you can easily narrow down the cause of the error yourself: ThemeWare® Debugging

Shopware has partially un-released Shopware 6.6 to fix a problem with the web installer and the auto update feature:

We just partially un-released Shopware 6.6.0.0

Namely the web installer and the distribution via the auto update feature in the administration.The github tag is still live.

Why?

If a shop has installed plugins which are using the executeComposerCommands function, the update via the administration can fail.The shop is not in a failstate afterwards, the update just fails.

What now?

If you are administering your shop via cli and composer (which you should), it doesn't matter, everything works fine.Everyone who is using the browser to update their shop has to wait until this is resolved, which might take a few days
