Updated HotFix Manager for use in older versions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
The DL logic in Hotfix Manager was changed in 8.3 to include the catalog of all framework changes. This had the unintended side effect of preventing DLs from being installed in Pega 7.3.1 and lower versions as the versions included in the catalog are not present on those systems and the validation failed. This has been resolved by revising the DL update so the system will only add all apps to the catalog for platform 7.4+ DLs.

Certificate match will use Subject Distinguished Name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Signature verification was failing due to the system not finding the matching root certificate for the chain. The root certificate was in the trust store, but the system found a different certificate first and that other certificate (an intermediate certificate) was not considered a valid certificate for validating the whole certificate chain. This was traced to filtering on the Issuer Distinguished Name (DN) instead of the Subject DN and was due to intermediate certificates potentially having the same Issuer as a root certificate (e.g. if that root certificate was used to create the intermediate certificate). To resolve this, an update has been made to check the Subject DN instead of Issuer DN.

Session timeout adjusted for use with Apple Safari
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A configured browser session logout timer was not working with the Apple Safari browser. This was traced to browser-specific handling for self.location.href and has been resolved by adjusting the logic and moving it inside a setTimeout to improve cross-browser compatibility.

Calendar edit properly disabled when set to no text entry
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
Clicking the input box of a date control used as Date+calendar popped up the calendar even when the calendar control was disabled and "Allow text entry" was set to No. If "Allow text entry" was set to yes, the entire calendar was disabled. To resolve this, the system has been updated to disable calendar control when 'Allow text entry' is selected to No in the presentation tab.

Check added for backwards compatibility with Case Type when rules
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
After upgrade, the When rules present on case type rules (used for skipping stages or showing/hiding stage-wide or case-wide actions) were not executing at run time. This was traced to the introduction of the pySkipOrAllowType property in recent versions, and was only reproducible when the ApplicationRuleset was locked and after upgrade irrespective of whether the condition for when was true or false. To resolve this and enhance backwards capability, a check has been added for the SkipOrAllowType property being empty.

Async cache checking updated for interaction reload use
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4
A thread level data page using connect REST to get data from an external system with the "Reload once per interaction" checkbox ticked was being loaded asynchronously from the activity when by default the data page it was supplying needed to be loaded synchronously. Due to this, changes to the data in the external database were not reflected in the data page. This was caused when an async cache was referred and the freshness check for the data page instance did not consider the 'reload once per interaction' flag because it would cause the data page to load twice. The cache checking has been updated to resolve this.
