Continua CI Releases

• The server now recovers automatically from temporary database outages, such as a SQL Server or PostgreSQL restart, without requiring a service restart. Build status updates are preserved during the outage, in-progress builds complete correctly when the database becomes available, and transient database errors are retried.
• Stopping multiple builds is now faster. The server no longer waits for an agent to finish stopping a stage; instead, the agent notifies the server when the build has stopped. A new Agent.Stopping.GracePeriod agent property controls how long the agent waits after receiving a stop request before force-terminating the remaining processes.
• The final page of the installer now includes a link to open Continua CI in your web browser.
• Added property collectors for .NET runtime v8.0.28, v9.0.17, v10.0.9 and v11.0.0-preview.5; SDK v8.0.422, v9.0.315, v10.0.301 and v11.0.100-preview.5.
• Updated description for Subversion repository option 'Match branch pattern against top-level folders only' to clarify that it affects repository initialization and does not filter or affect new changesets.
• Updated some third-party packages and resolved vulnerable transitive dependencies.

Note: You will need to update your agents after upgrading the server to this build.

• Fixed a blank dialog appearing on the Project Variables tab of the project wizard after switching to another tab and returning.
• Fixed a redirect loop during the first run of a new mixed-mode authentication installation.
• Notification senders for Microsoft Teams and Mattermost now treat an HTTP 202 Accepted response as successful. Newer Teams Workflows (Power Automate) webhooks return HTTP 202 rather than HTTP 200.
• Fixed a race condition where a request to stop a build could occasionally be overtaken by the build or stage queue, causing the build to fail rather than stop. In rare cases, a completed or stopped build could also be reclassified as failed. The build start, stop, re-queue and cancel operations now re-check the persisted build state before proceeding.

• Added new property collectors for .NET runtime v8.0.27, v9.0.16, v10.0.8 and v11.0.0-preview.4; SDK v8.0.421, v9.0.314, v10.0.300 and v11.0.100-preview.4.

• Added retry logic when beginning database transactions to handle intermittent database connection errors.
• Improved error handling of SQL timeouts during repository checking.
• Added --if-expiring-within option to the Signotaur Rotate Keys action, allowing key rotation to be skipped if the current key does not expire within the specified duration.
• Added --ignore-already-rotated-error option to the Signotaur Rotate Keys action, treating an already-rotated key as success instead of an error.
• Note: You will need to update your agents after upgrading the server to this build.
