InsID will be derived from handle if null for upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Upgrade from Pega 7 to Pega 8 failed with a null pointer exception in the “Upgrade Context” target. This was traced to a rule where the pxInsID was null. To resolve this, an update has been made to derive the InsID from handle when needed.

PEGA SOAP Service MTOM attachment handling updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After configuring a PEGA SOAP service with the Enable MTOM checked, sending a SOAP request with attachment to the service returned an invalid request error stating "Value of content length header is greater than zero - [762], but this request has empty POST". Investigation showed that when the input request reached the getPostBytes method and inputstream tried to read it, there were no available bytes and end of file was detected. This was due to the inputstream having already been read in getMultiPartSOAPHandler() method in FileUploadHandler class. To resolve this, the system will update an 'if' condition in getPostBytes method to skip reading the request attachment when contentType is "multipart/related".

ServicePackage thread handling improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Work recently done to improve the release of requestor pool threads for the ServicePackage has been further enhanced by adding an explicit status notification to the thread waiting for Data Pages to be loaded in background and added support for the use case of a missing object handler. This also resolves a 504 Gateway Time-out error intermittently seen while trying to open the URL of the Pega application.

Validation on DateTime property working for mobile
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A mandatory DateTime field with "Allow text entry" set to 'No' was not restricting validation when no value was provided. This was an unintended consequence of recent work done to validate input type date along with input type hidden, and has been reverted.

DSS added to control DADT purge
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Thread dumps and service restarts were seen when Decision Engine data nodes were working with a very large number of tables. This has been resolved by adding a DSS as part of the CDH layer which will skip CDH DADT that contains pattern DATA_BATCHOUT, for instance "DATA-ADMIN-DB-TABLE DATA-BATCHOUTPR469001" to prevent the deletion causing full cache invalidation of the table information map. With this DSS set to true, when the purge agent runs and deletes the DADT, class cache should no longer be invalidated. With the DSS missing or set to a value other than true, the class cache invalidation will still occur.

Null check added for debug logging pointer error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When DEBUG logging was enabled on the class 'com.pega.pegarules.session.internal.mgmt.base.AbstractPageDirectory', system restart resulted in the node failing to startup with a null pointer error in a debug block of this class. A null check has been added to resolve this.

Check and error message added for filename containing "%00"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
At the time of file attachment or upload, if the file name contained % followed by two 0s (%00), the file upload mechanism distorted the UI and the Pega logo screen popped up. The file was saved properly in the ServiceExport directory, but while fetching the attachment info, the file was split in two because the engine considered %00 as a delimiter. This has been resolved by adding a file name check and a pyInvalidFileName field value to be used for an error message.

Case Dependency corrected for different access groups
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Creating a queue item as part of the case dependency was not working as expected when the access groups of the dependent cases were different. Investigation showed that in this scenario, the logic was looping differently and the DependencyList page in pxCheckFlowDependencies was getting removed. To resolve this, the DependencyList page has been moved so it is processed inside the DependencyList.pxResults loop.

Resolved startup error related to business calendar object
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
An error recorded in the log file when the server started was traced to a cache update that removed the old business calendar object and added the new business calendar object to the business cal list. This has been resolved by updating the system to replace the business calendar object instead of removing the old one from the cache first.
