Content-type values made consistent
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
The content-type for service APIs was returned as 'text' for 401 errors when using a custom authentication type instead of the parent-type/child-type format such as text/plain, text/html, application/json, etc. This has been corrected.

Revalidate of class rules successful after major version skimming
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When performing a major ruleset version skim and revalidating all rules, most class rules were failing during the revalidation. This was a gap in how Ruleset List and Major Version Skim work together. When calling getRuleSetPrerequisites(“rulesetA:01-01-01”), the API uses uses the current application context to return a ruleset list from an application which owns rulesetA and its compatible version, but if no owning application was found from the current application context, a list of rulesetA and PegaRULES:XX-XX-XX was returned. This caused a conflict between what the system was trying to validate and the ruleset versions returned. To resolve this, an update has been made which will exclude the version number for this comparison if no owning application is found.

Other Currency resolves value in Pega DX
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When using Pega DX with the pxDisplayText currency set to "Other currency", only the property name was sent as part of the metadata and not the actual value. This has been resolved by updating "Other currency" to resolve the property reference and get the value.

Allowed Property Exceptions will be logged as DEBUG
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
The Logger was printing an ERROR message when evaluating a declarative expression. By design, declarative expressions throw a MissingProperty exception if fetched without the source value present, but this can cause excessive logging on a system where this condition is allowed and expected. In order to support flexible use for this scenario, the system has been updated so that the log level will be switched from ERROR to DEBUG when MissingPropertyExceptions are allowed. Logging will remain as ERROR if exceptions are not allowed.

AvailableProperties cleanup added after save
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
The Report filter value auto-complete was displaying an incorrect list of values. This was traced to pyAvailableProperties not being cleaned up after being created and used in a prior process, and has been resolved by ensuring pyAvailableProperties is removed on save so it can be cleanly built when needed.

Added busy state reset to reenable buttons after custom frame cancel
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
When using a custom iFrame in a section that called a third-party URL, clicking on cancel for the popup "Do you want to stay on this page or leave it?" caused the screen to freeze. This was traced to the cancellation of the dirty page setting a busy state which disabled all the buttons and did not have a path to recovery. This has been resolved by updating the busy state so it will reset when the user chooses to cancel the changes and reenable all the buttons.

Client side validation works with Reference page property
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
A reference page property in a 'when' rule was not evaluating properly for checking a Date field when client side validation or Client side template UI was checked on the Harness level. This was traced to pyRequired being boolean: the boolean being compared to a string false value yielded a wrong comparison, leading to the wrong validation type required. To resolve this, the system will use the === comparator to compare boolean false in datetime to remove the required validator.

Handling added for external Kafka authorization exception
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When using external Kafka for stream service, the dataflow was failing with the error 'QueueProcessorDataSubscriberException' when topic create permission was missing. As a workaround, the topics could be pre-created, though a "Topic already exists" warning was generated. To resolve this, the cluster-wide right that a producer needs, IdempotentWrite, has been added. For more information please refer to the link https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/kafka/authorization.html

Email listener update for Microsoft Exchange server
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade, TooManyObjectsOpenedException/MapiExceptionSessionLimit errors were seen when starting the email listener. Investigation showed that when the listener was started, two sessions were getting opened and then not closed properly. This was a method originally intended to allow the system to re-use the session to minimize performance overhead, but it is not well-suited for use with Microsoft Exchange server as the Exchange server is unable to cleanup idle sessions. As a result, too many MAPI sessions were opened and led to an authentication exception while opening additional sessions. To resolve this, an update has been made so the system will close the session while the listener sleeps. This stop, restart and graceful shutdown scenario for single threaded email listener scenarios will create a new session every time and close it properly.

Fallback added for calculating date after upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.2
After upgrade, the date value returned from Stored procedure failed to be mapped to "date" type property. Stored Procedure was used to get data from an external Oracle database and then handed to a Data Transform to map the values. When the Data was fetched from the store procedure, the date properties were mapping correctly, but when these values were mapped from the clipboard into the usecase using a Data Transform, the data for date properties was becoming corrupted. This was traced to logic differences between the versions: 8.2 generated resolveToDate while in 8.5 generates resolveToBigDecimal. In this case, resolve to big decimal was being called with aType='D' and aValue=20200918, and the 20200918 number was being interpreted as days since 1 Jan 1970 instead of as a date. This has been resolved by adding a fallback for the date calculation.
