Critical Bug Fixes (Nexus Repository 3.67.1)

Release 3.67.1 fixes two bugs that impacted release 3.67.0.

Cleanup Policy Bug Fix

Nexus Repository 3.67.1 fixes a cleanup policy bug that impacted those who meet the all of following criteria:

Upgraded to Sonatype Nexus Repository 3.67.0.
Had previously defined cleanup policies for Docker or Maven formats that included configuration for retaining a defined number of recent versions (a PostgreSQL-only feature introduced in release 3.65.0).
Modified and saved one of these existing cleanup policies via the Nexus Repository UI after upgrading to 3.67.0.

If you meet the above criteria, upon saving the revised cleanup policy, the configuration for retaining recent versions would have been removed from the cleanup policy and will not be automatically reinstated upon upgrading to 3.67.1. This could cause Nexus Repository to delete component versions that you intended to retain.

After upgrading to 3.67.1, review Docker and Maven cleanup criteria for accuracy.

Docker Subdomain Routing Bug Fix

Nexus Repository 3.67.1 fixes a bug that prevented our Docker subdomain routing feature from functioning.

Java 11 Support (Nexus Repository 3.67.0)

Sonatype Nexus Repository operators can now choose to run their Nexus Repository deployment on Java 8 or Java 11. This new choice helps organizations that are seeking to move off of Java 8. Our performance testing with both runtimes shows no measurable differences in application performance.

We have provided Nexus Repository 3.67.0 binaries: one with JRE 8 and one with JRE 11. When using the Docker image, the following pulls will provide a Docker image with a Java 8 or Java 11 runtime:

Java 8
- sonatype/nexus3:latest
- sonatype/nexus3:3.67.0
- sonatype/nexus3:3.67.0-java8
Java 11
- sonatype/nexus3:3.67.0-java11

Dependency Updates (Nexus Repository 3.67.0)

Updated Groovy dependency from 2.4.17 to 3.0.19
Updated PostgreSQL database driver from 42.6.0 to 42.7.2
