+Obviously, you don't know if you should call your newsfile

+Synapse offers two database engines:
+ * [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org)
+ * [SQLite](https://sqlite.org/)
+
+Almost all installations should opt to use PostgreSQL. Advantages include:
+
+* significant performance improvements due to the superior threading and

+
+For information on how to install and use PostgreSQL, please see

-Synapse requires pip 8 or later, so if your OS provides too old a version you
-may need to manually upgrade it::
-
-    sudo pip install --upgrade pip
-
-Installing may fail with `Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement pymacaroons-pynacl (from matrix-synapse==0.12.0)`.
-You can fix this by manually upgrading pip and virtualenv::

-
-You can next rerun `virtualenv -p python3 synapse` to update the virtual env.
-
-Installing may fail during installing virtualenv with `InsecurePlatformWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available. This prevents urllib3 from configuring SSL appropriately and may cause certain SSL connections to fail. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#insecureplatformwarning.`

+## Client Well-Known URI
+
+Setting up the client Well-Known URI is optional but if you set it up, it will
+allow users to enter their full username (e.g. `@user:<server_name>`) into clients
+which support well-known lookup to automatically configure the homeserver and
+identity server URLs. This is useful so that users don't have to memorize or think
+about the actual homeserver URL you are using.
+
+The URL `https://<server_name>/.well-known/matrix/client` should return JSON in
+the following format.
+
+```
+{
+  "m.homeserver": {
+    "base_url": "https://<matrix.example.com>"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+It can optionally contain identity server information as well.

+```
+{
+  "m.homeserver": {
+    "base_url": "https://<matrix.example.com>"
+  },
+  "m.identity_server": {
+    "base_url": "https://<identity.example.com>"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+To work in browser based clients, the file must be served with the appropriate
+Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers. A recommended value would be
+`Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` which would allow all browser based clients to
+view it.
+
+In nginx this would be something like:
+```
+location /.well-known/matrix/client {
+    return 200 '{"m.homeserver": {"base_url": "https://<matrix.example.com>"}}';
+    add_header Content-Type application/json;
+    add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
+}
+```
+
+You should also ensure the `public_baseurl` option in `homeserver.yaml` is set
+correctly. `public_baseurl` should be set to the URL that clients will use to

-Using PostgreSQL
-================

-Synapse offers two database engines:

- * `PostgreSQL <https://www.postgresql.org>`_

-By default Synapse uses SQLite in and doing so trades performance for convenience.
-SQLite is only recommended in Synapse for testing purposes or for servers with

-Almost all installations should opt to use PostreSQL. Advantages include:

-* allowing the DB to be run on separate hardware
-* allowing basic active/backup high-availability with a "hot spare" synapse
-  pointing at the same DB master, as well as enabling DB replication in

+====================
+
+Forwarding ``/_synapse/client`` through your reverse proxy
+----------------------------------------------------------
+
+The `reverse proxy documentation
+<https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/reverse_proxy.md>`_ has been updated
+to include reverse proxy directives for ``/_synapse/client/*`` endpoints. As the user password
+reset flow now uses endpoints under this prefix, **you must update your reverse proxy
+configurations for user password reset to work**.
+
+Additionally, note that the `Synapse worker documentation
+<https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/workers.md>`_ has been updated to
+ state that the ``/_synapse/client/password_reset/email/submit_token`` endpoint can be handled
+by all workers. If you make use of Synapse's worker feature, please update your reverse proxy
+configuration to reflect this change.
+
+New HTML templates
+------------------
+
+A new HTML template,
+`password_reset_confirmation.html <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/synapse/res/templates/password_reset_confirmation.html>`_,
+has been added to the ``synapse/res/templates`` directory. If you are using a
+custom template directory, you may want to copy the template over and modify it.
+
+Note that as of v1.20.0, templates do not need to be included in custom template
+directories for Synapse to start. The default templates will be used if a custom
+template cannot be found.
+
+This page will appear to the user after clicking a password reset link that has
+been emailed to them.
+
+To complete password reset, the page must include a way to make a `POST`
+request to
+``/_synapse/client/password_reset/{medium}/submit_token``
+with the query parameters from the original link, presented as a URL-encoded form. See the file
+itself for more details.
+
+Updated Single Sign-on HTML Templates
+-------------------------------------
+
+The ``saml_error.html`` template was removed from Synapse and replaced with the
+``sso_error.html`` template. If your Synapse is configured to use SAML and a
+custom ``sso_redirect_confirm_template_dir`` configuration then any customisations
+of the ``saml_error.html`` template will need to be merged into the ``sso_error.html``
+template. These templates are similar, but the parameters are slightly different:
+
+* The ``msg`` parameter should be renamed to ``error_description``.
+* There is no longer a ``code`` parameter for the response code.
+* A string ``error`` parameter is available that includes a short hint of why a
+  user is seeing the error page.
+
+Upgrading to v1.18.0
+====================
+
+Docker `-py3` suffix will be removed in future versions
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+From 10th August 2020, we will no longer publish Docker images with the `-py3` tag suffix. The images tagged with the `-py3` suffix have been identical to the non-suffixed tags since release 0.99.0, and the suffix is obsolete.
+
+On 10th August, we will remove the `latest-py3` tag. Existing per-release tags (such as `v1.18.0-py3`) will not be removed, but no new `-py3` tags will be added.
+
+Scripts relying on the `-py3` suffix will need to be updated.
+
+Redis replication is now recommended in lieu of TCP replication
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+When setting up worker processes, we now recommend the use of a Redis server for replication. **The old direct TCP connection method is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.**
+See `docs/workers.md <docs/workers.md>`_ for more details.
+
+Upgrading to v1.14.0
+====================
+
+This version includes a database update which is run as part of the upgrade,
+and which may take a couple of minutes in the case of a large server. Synapse
+will not respond to HTTP requests while this update is taking place.
+
+Upgrading to v1.13.0
+====================
+
+Incorrect database migration in old synapse versions
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+A bug was introduced in Synapse 1.4.0 which could cause the room directory to
+be incomplete or empty if Synapse was upgraded directly from v1.2.1 or
+earlier, to versions between v1.4.0 and v1.12.x.
+
+This will *not* be a problem for Synapse installations which were:
+ * created at v1.4.0 or later,
+ * upgraded via v1.3.x, or
+ * upgraded straight from v1.2.1 or earlier to v1.13.0 or later.
+
+If completeness of the room directory is a concern, installations which are
+affected can be repaired as follows:
+
+1. Run the following sql from a `psql` or `sqlite3` console:
+
+   .. code:: sql
+
+     INSERT INTO background_updates (update_name, progress_json, depends_on) VALUES
+        ('populate_stats_process_rooms', '{}', 'current_state_events_membership');
+
+     INSERT INTO background_updates (update_name, progress_json, depends_on) VALUES
+        ('populate_stats_process_users', '{}', 'populate_stats_process_rooms');
+
+2. Restart synapse.
+
+New Single Sign-on HTML Templates
+---------------------------------
+
+New templates (``sso_auth_confirm.html``, ``sso_auth_success.html``, and
+``sso_account_deactivated.html``) were added to Synapse. If your Synapse is
+configured to use SSO and a custom  ``sso_redirect_confirm_template_dir``
+configuration then these templates will need to be copied from
+`synapse/res/templates <synapse/res/templates>`_ into that directory.
+
+Synapse SSO Plugins Method Deprecation
+--------------------------------------
+
+Plugins using the ``complete_sso_login`` method of
+``synapse.module_api.ModuleApi`` should update to using the async/await
+version ``complete_sso_login_async`` which includes additional checks. The
+non-async version is considered deprecated.
+
+Rolling back to v1.12.4 after a failed upgrade
+----------------------------------------------
+
+v1.13.0 includes a lot of large changes. If something problematic occurs, you
+may want to roll-back to a previous version of Synapse. Because v1.13.0 also
+includes a new database schema version, reverting that version is also required
+alongside the generic rollback instructions mentioned above. In short, to roll
+back to v1.12.4 you need to:
+
+1. Stop the server
+2. Decrease the schema version in the database:
+
+   .. code:: sql
+
+      UPDATE schema_version SET version = 57;
+
+3. Downgrade Synapse by following the instructions for your installation method
+   in the "Rolling back to older versions" section above.
+
+
+Upgrading to v1.12.0
+====================
+
+This version includes a database update which is run as part of the upgrade,
+and which may take some time (several hours in the case of a large
+server). Synapse will not respond to HTTP requests while this update is taking
+place.
+
+This is only likely to be a problem in the case of a server which is
+participating in many rooms.
+
+0. As with all upgrades, it is recommended that you have a recent backup of
+   your database which can be used for recovery in the event of any problems.
+
+1. As an initial check to see if you will be affected, you can try running the
+   following query from the `psql` or `sqlite3` console. It is safe to run it
+   while Synapse is still running.
+
+   .. code:: sql
+
+      SELECT MAX(q.v) FROM (
+        SELECT (
+          SELECT ej.json AS v
+          FROM state_events se INNER JOIN event_json ej USING (event_id)
+          WHERE se.room_id=rooms.room_id AND se.type='m.room.create' AND se.state_key=''
+          LIMIT 1
+        ) FROM rooms WHERE rooms.room_version IS NULL
+      ) q;
+
+   This query will take about the same amount of time as the upgrade process: ie,
+   if it takes 5 minutes, then it is likely that Synapse will be unresponsive for
+   5 minutes during the upgrade.
+
+   If you consider an outage of this duration to be acceptable, no further
+   action is necessary and you can simply start Synapse 1.12.0.
+
+   If you would prefer to reduce the downtime, continue with the steps below.
+
+2. The easiest workaround for this issue is to manually
+   create a new index before upgrading. On PostgreSQL, his can be done as follows:

+      ON state_events(room_id) WHERE type = 'm.room.create';
+
+   The above query may take some time, but is also safe to run while Synapse is
+   running.
+
+   We assume that no SQLite users have databases large enough to be
+   affected. If you *are* affected, you can run a similar query, omitting the
+   ``CONCURRENTLY`` keyword. Note however that this operation may in itself cause
+   Synapse to stop running for some time. Synapse admins are reminded that
+   `SQLite is not recommended for use outside a test
+   environment <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/README.rst#using-postgresql>`_.
+
+3. Once the index has been created, the ``SELECT`` query in step 1 above should
+   complete quickly. It is therefore safe to upgrade to Synapse 1.12.0.
+
+4. Once Synapse 1.12.0 has successfully started and is responding to HTTP
+   requests, the temporary index can be removed:
+
+   .. code:: sql
+
+      DROP INDEX tmp_upgrade_1_12_0_index;
+
+Upgrading to v1.10.0
+====================
+
+Synapse will now log a warning on start up if used with a PostgreSQL database
+that has a non-recommended locale set.
+
+See `docs/postgres.md <docs/postgres.md>`_ for details.
+
 
 Upgrading to v1.8.0

-# Setup Synapse with Workers and Systemd
+The documentation for using systemd to manage synapse workers is now part of
-
+the main synapse distribution. See [docs/systemd-with-workers](../../docs/systemd-with-workers).
-This is a setup for managing synapse with systemd including support for
-managing workers. It provides a `matrix-synapse`, as well as a
-`matrix-synapse-worker@` service for any workers you require. Additionally to
-group the required services it sets up a `matrix.target`. You can use this to
-automatically start any bot- or bridge-services. More on this in
-[Bots and Bridges](#bots-and-bridges).
-
-See the folder [system](system) for any service and target files.
-
-The folder [workers](workers) contains an example configuration for the
-`federation_reader` worker. Pay special attention to the name of the
-configuration file. In order to work with the `matrix-synapse-worker@.service`
-service, it needs to have the exact same name as the worker app.
-
-This setup expects neither the homeserver nor any workers to fork. Forking is
-handled by systemd.
-
-## Setup
-
-1. Adjust your matrix configs. Make sure that the worker config files have the
-exact same name as the worker app. Compare `matrix-synapse-worker@.service` for
-why. You can find an example worker config in the [workers](workers) folder. See
-below for relevant settings in the `homeserver.yaml`.
-2. Copy the `*.service` and `*.target` files in [system](system) to
-`/etc/systemd/system`.
-3. `systemctl enable matrix-synapse.service` this adds the homeserver
-app to the `matrix.target`
-4. *Optional.* `systemctl enable
-matrix-synapse-worker@federation_reader.service` this adds the federation_reader
-app to the `matrix-synapse.service`
-5. *Optional.* Repeat step 4 for any additional workers you require.
-6. *Optional.* Add any bots or bridges by enabling them.
-7. Start all matrix related services via `systemctl start matrix.target`
-8. *Optional.* Enable autostart of all matrix related services on system boot
-via `systemctl enable matrix.target`
-
-## Usage
-
-After you have setup you can use the following commands to manage your synapse
-installation:
-
-```
-# Start matrix-synapse, all workers and any enabled bots or bridges.
-systemctl start matrix.target
-
-# Restart matrix-synapse and all workers (not necessarily restarting bots
-# or bridges, see "Bots and Bridges")
-systemctl restart matrix-synapse.service
-
-# Stop matrix-synapse and all workers (not necessarily restarting bots
-# or bridges, see "Bots and Bridges")
-systemctl stop matrix-synapse.service
-
-# Restart a specific worker (i. e. federation_reader), the homeserver is
-# unaffected by this.
-systemctl restart matrix-synapse-worker@federation_reader.service
-
-# Add a new worker (assuming all configs are setup already)
-systemctl enable matrix-synapse-worker@federation_writer.service
-systemctl restart matrix-synapse.service
-```
-
-## The Configs
-
-Make sure the `worker_app` is set in the `homeserver.yaml` and it does not fork.
-
-```
-worker_app: synapse.app.homeserver 
-daemonize: false
-```
-
-None of the workers should fork, as forking is handled by systemd. Hence make
-sure this is present in all worker config files.
-
-```
-worker_daemonize: false
-```
-
-The config files of all workers are expected to be located in
-`/etc/matrix-synapse/workers`. If you want to use a different location you have
-to edit the provided `*.service` files accordingly.  
-
-## Bots and Bridges
-
-Most bots and bridges do not care if the homeserver goes down or is restarted.
-Depending on the implementation this may crash them though. So look up the docs
-or ask the community of the specific bridge or bot you want to run to make sure
-you choose the correct setup.
-
-Whichever configuration you choose, after the setup the following will enable
-automatically starting (and potentially restarting) your bot/bridge with the
-`matrix.target`.
-
-```
-systemctl enable <yourBotOrBridgeName>.service
-```
-
-**Note** that from an inactive synapse the bots/bridges will only be started with
-synapse if you start the `matrix.target`, not if you start the
-`matrix-synapse.service`. This is on purpose. Think of `matrix-synapse.service`
-as *just* synapse, but `matrix.target` being anything matrix related, including
-synapse and any and all enabled bots and bridges.
-
-### Start with synapse but ignore synapse going down
-
-If the bridge can handle shutdowns of the homeserver you'll want to install the
-service in the `matrix.target` and optionally add a
-`After=matrix-synapse.service` dependency to have the bot/bridge start after
-synapse on starting everything.
-
-In this case the service file should look like this.
-
-```
-[Unit]
-# ...
-# Optional, this will only ensure that if you start everything, synapse will
-# be started before the bot/bridge will be started.
-After=matrix-synapse.service
-
-[Service]
-# ...
-
-[Install]
-WantedBy=matrix.target
-```
-
-### Stop/restart when synapse stops/restarts
-
-If the bridge can't handle shutdowns of the homeserver you'll still want to
-install the service in the `matrix.target` but also have to specify the
-`After=matrix-synapse.service` *and* `BindsTo=matrix-synapse.service`
-dependencies to have the bot/bridge stop/restart with synapse.
-
-In this case the service file should look like this.
-
-```
-[Unit]
-# ...
-# Mandatory
-After=matrix-synapse.service
-BindsTo=matrix-synapse.service
-
-[Service]
-# ...
-
-[Install]
-WantedBy=matrix.target
