New features
- Linux: added Debian 13 (trixie) as a supported/published platform.
- Linux: removed the legacy on-host folder migration pre-v1.2.0 from
newrelic-agent-control-cli - Variants support has been removed in favor of the "governance" flow server side
- Regex-based remote config validation has been removed in favor of the "governance" flow server side.
Bug fixes
- On-host: fixed a spurious
error-level log"cannot forward agent control event"emitted on every clean shutdown; the status server bridge now exits only via an explicit stop signal, closed channels are silently disabled rather than causing an exit, and publisher lifetimes are extended to keep channels open until the stop signal fires. - Linux:
uninstall.shnow usesapt-get purgeinstead ofapt-get remove, preventing a dpkg state inconsistency that caused reinstallation to fail, the service could not start because thesystemd-env.confconffile was not recreated by the package manager. - Windows: the uninstall script now warns instead of silently succeeding when the install or runtime-data directory cannot be removed (e.g. Windows Explorer has it open), and preserves the script itself so it can be re-run once the lock is released.
- On-host: filesystem entries under
filesystem:/shared_filesystem:are now written to disk in alphabetical order and fsynced after each write, making the write order deterministic. - On-host: self-update no longer deletes the downloaded package's binary when replacing the running binary, fixing rollback and same-version reinstall after a self-update.
- On-host: fixed a spurious
Error reading the log directory/files: No such file or directorymessage printed to stderr the first time Agent Control's or a sub-agent's log directory is created. - On-host: executable output and lifecycle logs are no longer misleadingly tagged with the
start_agentspan for the entire lifetime of agent processes and supervisors, they carry the explicit fields instead. - On exit, the process-terminated log line (success or error) is no longer dropped from the log file: it used to be emitted after the file logger had already shut down, so it only ever reached
journalctl/stderr.
