JobScheduler initialization timing adjusted
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
DDS nodes were ending up in a deadlock condition on restart, preventing them from joining the cluster. This has been resolved by ensuring the JobScheduler initialization task waits for Search to start up.

Cleaned up tracer exceptions for requestor inactivity
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade, the exception "No records were found for the lookup with keys : pyEventType=REQUESTOR-INACTIVITY" was appearing multiple times in tracer for Data-UsageEventType class. This has been resolved by changing the conditions order to decrease the number of data page loads.

Attachments successfully fetched with CMIS
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade from Pega v7.2 to Pega v8.5, trying to fetch an attachment from CMIS storage and attach it to an email generated an exception. This was traced to a repository name null check which always evaluated to true when used with CMIS, and has been resolved by removing the null check from abstractRepo.

Queue processor alert threshold error resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade from v8.2.6 to v8.5.2, all queue processors reported the error "Threshold Default - 2000.0 is not a valid integer value". The issue was related to Java type promotion from long to double; since the ClipboardPage.setValue() method has two overloaded versions accepting int or double, the double type was being selected for the long type and returning 2000.0 instead of 2000 for alertConfig.getThreshold(). This has been resolved by updating the system to specify setValue((int)alertConfig.getThreshold()) in the pzLoadQueueProcessorAlertDefaults activity.

Race condition resolved for input/output pipe streams
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Writing to S3 using file data set was failing with the error "Exception occurred while uploading file". The system was relying on PipedInputStream for getting the data from the file while uploading, which needs to be connected to PipedOutputStream which holds the data to be uploaded. Investigation showed a race condition was occurring where for some use cases the reading of inputStream was happening before the connection of I/P and O/P streams, resulting in a "Pipe not connected" error. This has been resolved.

REST connector creation errors resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Attempting to create REST Connectors via the dev studio wizard using live endpoint invocation as "Add a REST response" was failing with a java.util.LinkedList error. This had a workaround of either running the REST wizard with file upload samples or configuring them directly on the rule form. In addition, REST Connectors were not executing if both the DEBUG level logging was turned on and the request had no headers, which had a workaround of using any other logging level (INFO, ERROR). These issues have been resolved by updating the system such that pyResponseHeaders are populated appropriately, and if there are no headers in the request, the system will not try to remove the trailing comma that would have been introduced in the oLog message.

Optimizing helper class enhanced to handle external databases
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Running a BIX extract that included a manifest for a target database was resulting in a null pointer exception for the manifest extraction. Attempting to generate the DDL for the manifest table also failed. This was traced to an issue with the helper class using a hardcoded default database for forming the queries, causing it to ignore the database config/DADN/prconfig for the Oracle database and form a query using the PegaRules' database credentials. This only occurred when trying to do external database operations on a different database platform; Oracle PegaRules worked as expected with an Oracle external database and Postgres Pegarules worked with a Postgres external database, but mixing Postgres PegaRules and an Oracle external database would result in the null pointer exception. To resolve this, the helper class has been enhanced to work with external databases by passing the database name as a parameter so it will properly calculate the query based on the type of target. An error in the name of the class has also been corrected, and is now available as PerformanceHelper rather than the previous "PerformaneHelper".

Email headers correctly mapped when using MSGraph
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
The value of "Send Date" was not correctly populated when using MSGraph instead of IMAP, causing the Email Listener to fail. Microsoft populates the "sendDateTime" field in the JSON with the value of the RFC 822 email header "Date:", but this value was not being passed to Java object of type "Message" as part of the query. To resolve this, ReceivedDateTime and SentDatetime have been added in the select filter of getMessagebymessageID.

MSGraph email listener enhancements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Attachments with .eml /.msg extensions were treated as FileAttachments by the MS Graph API and generating a classcastexception. To resolve this, a check has been added to identify the attachment along with content type so .eml will be correctly recognized. In addition, the MSGraph email listener functionality related to converting from Graph to MIME message has been enhanced around the 'TO' and 'CC' recipients in a MIME message and for parsing nested attachments in Item attachment for addition to MsgraphMessage.

Handling added for reactivating combined Passivation and AccessGroup timeout
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Refreshing a passivated browser window in Dev Studio for an operator with a combined access group and passivation timeout was resulting in a blank screen after re-authenticating. InvalidParameterException and InvalidReferenceException messages were logged. Research showed this was caused by a missing pxPortal property on the pxThread page along with missing Application and Accessgroup pages. While refreshing the browser along with the top URL, there will be few requests with tab threads calling activities such as deletedocumentpg and SetProcessWindowName because there was an unload. Because these requests reached the server before re-authentication, the threads proceeded to the activation flow, causing properties such as pxPortal, Application, and Accessgroup pages to be removed from the thread page and requestor page according to the condition that the requestor was not yet authenticated. To resolve this, the logic in session.internal.authorization.context.BasicApplicationContextImmutableImpl#applyApplicationProperties has been updated to skip removing application page properties from the thread page in this combined Passivation and AccessGroup timeout scenario.
