## Known Issues
Issue ID

Mule AS2 Connector 5.x is not compatible with Mule 4.4. For any applications that use this version of the connector, upgrade the connector to the latest version available in Exchange.

EE-8071

WSDL Proxies on version 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 are not compatible with Mule 4.4. Before you upgrade to 4.4, upgrade the WSDL Proxies to a newer version.

EE-8070

Mule SAP Connector 5.3.4 is not compatible with Mule 4.4. For any applications that use this version of the connector, upgrade the connector to the latest version available in Exchange.

EE-8061
## Upgrade If you are upgrading to Mule 4.4 from an earlier Mule 4.x version, see [Upgrading Mule Runtime Engine (Versions 4.x to 4.n)](https://docs.mulesoft.com/jp/release-notes/mule-runtime/updating-mule-4-versions) for upgrade instructions. To ensure optimal performance with Mule 4.4 and avoid unexpected issues, update these modules and extensions to their latest version at the time of this release:
Module or Extension Version

APIkit for Mule 4

1.5.5

APIkit for SOAP

1.2.9

Spring module

1.3.6

MUnit plugin

2.3.6

Module Testing Framework (mtf-tools)

1.1.1
### [](#considerations-for-mule-extensions-developers)Considerations for Mule Extensions Developers If you update the version of your parent `pom.xml` file to 1.4.0 or later when you build a Mule extension, ensure that the dependencies in your `pom.xml` file do not override dependencies defined in the parent `pom.xml` file and declare only the dependencies you need. If you need to declare a dependency that is already declared in the parent `pom.xml` file, do not specify a version so it uses the version from the parent `pom.xml` file. ## [](#see-also)See Also - [Salesforce Help](https://help.salesforce.com) - [MuleSoft Services](https://www.mulesoft.com/support-and-services) - [Known Issues](https://help.salesforce.com/s/issues)
