Bump Akka.Cluster.Hosting from 1.5.59 to 1.5.67

[dependabot]

Updated Akka.Cluster.Hosting from 1.5.59 to 1.5.67.

Release notes

Sourced from Akka.Cluster.Hosting's releases.

1.5.67

1.5.67 April 26th 2026

New Features

• Add WithStrictSerialization helper — resolves issue #​734. Adds WithStrictSerialization(bool enabled = true) extension on AkkaConfigurationBuilder that sets akka.actor.serialization-settings.allow-unregistered-types = off, disabling the Newtonsoft.Json fallback and throwing SerializationException for unregistered types.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.66 to 1.5.67 - Hotfix release reverting the Task.Yield() optimization in AsyncWriteJournal/SnapshotStore that broke the persistence plugin threading contract.

1.5.65

1.5.65 April 10th 2026

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.64 to 1.5.65

1.5.64

1.5.64 March 31st 2026

Bug Fixes

• Fix LoggerFactoryLogger metadata regression for non-semantic logs - PR #​706 (trace correlation) accidentally gated ActorPath, LogSource, Timestamp, and Thread emission on _hasSemanticProperties, which was false for plain-string logs. Non-semantic logs lost all structured metadata, breaking downstream consumers such as Datadog pipelines and custom ConsoleFormatters. All log paths now emit the full set of Akka metadata as structured attributes regardless of whether the message uses named placeholders.

Breaking Changes

• Convert Akka.Hosting.TestKit to xUnit 3 - Akka.Hosting.TestKit now targets xUnit v3. Users who need to remain on xUnit v2 can switch to the new Akka.Hosting.TestKit.Xunit2 package, which preserves the previous xUnit v2-based TestKit API.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.63 to 1.5.64

1.5.63

1.5.63 March 24th 2026

Bug Fixes

• Fix ActorRegistry.TryGet caching stale IActorRef values - ActorRegistry.TryGet was caching the internal IActorRef on first call.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.62 to 1.5.63

1.5.62

1.5.62 March 4th 2026

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.61 to 1.5.62

1.5.61 February 26th 2026

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.60 to 1.5.61

1.5.60 February 10th 2026

New Features

• Add OpenTelemetry trace correlation support for LoggerFactoryLogger - enables proper trace correlation for logs emitted from actor code. Solves the problem that Activity.Current doesn't flow across actor mailbox boundaries because it uses AsyncLocal<T>. When using Akka.NET 1.5.59+, LogEvent.ActivityContext captures trace context at log creation time and flows it through to OpenTelemetry LogRecords via the new AkkaTraceContextProcessor. Register with options.AddAkkaTraceCorrelation() in your OpenTelemetry logging configuration.
• Add WithContext() integration tests for MEL logger - confirmed that Akka.NET 1.5.60's WithContext() logging context enrichment works automatically with LoggerFactoryLogger. Context properties set via the core WithContext() API flow through to Microsoft.Extensions.Logging state dictionaries via TryGetProperties() without any code changes needed.

Bug Fixes

• Fix WithDefaultLogMessageFormatter<T>() rejecting built-in formatters - SemanticLogMessageFormatter and DefaultLogMessageFormatter have private constructors (they use singleton Instance properties), but the validation only accepted public parameterless constructors. These built-in types are now correctly accepted.

Deprecations

• WithDefaultLogMessageFormatter<T>() is now marked [Obsolete] — SemanticLogMessageFormatter is the default as of Akka.NET 1.5.58 and no longer needs to be set explicitly. The method still works for custom ILogMessageFormatter implementations.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.59 to 1.5.60

1.5.60-beta1 January 29th 2026

Beta Release

This is a beta release for testing the OpenTelemetry trace correlation feature that was merged after 1.5.59.

Solves the problem that Activity.Current doesn't flow across actor mailbox boundaries because it uses AsyncLocal<T>.

1.5.59 January 2026

Register with options.AddAkkaTraceCorrelation() in your OpenTelemetry logging configuration.

Bug Fixes

• Fix semantic logging not capturing named placeholders as structured properties - resolved issue #​701 where named placeholders like {Event} in log messages were not captured as searchable structured properties. Made all LoggerConfigBuilder properties optional and refactored message formatting code.
• Fix TestKit startup timeout race condition - resolved race condition in TestKit.InitializeAsync() where CancellationTokenSource.Register() threw exceptions on the timer thread, causing unhandled exceptions that crashed the test host process. Also increased default startup timeout from 10s to 30s for CI environments.

Updates

• Bump Akka version from 1.5.58 to 1.5.59
• Added OpenTelemetry package dependency (1.9.0+) for trace correlation support

Fully backwards compatible with older Akka.NET versions.
