Connection Manager uses keyring for null prconfig password
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
After upgrade, credentials from BIX keyring were failing when using BIX via commandline rather than prconfig. This was traced to a behavior change in the Connection Manager, and has been resolved by modifying the Connection Manager to look up the password from the keyring when given a URL configuration where the password is null in prconfig (URL connection only).

Data pages explicitly cleared after QP use
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
The Util Node was showing as Offline in the Search Landing Page, and when Jobs were submitted for execution from other Nodes the message "Detected active run with unreachable nodes" was logged. The util node, configured as a backgroundprocessing node, was running QPs; the queue size for custom QPs is 500 messages /queue items per minute, but investigation showed the requestor level and thread level data pages corresponding to the QP activities were not being cleared after use. This led to high heap memory issues that made the node unreachable, and has been resolved by adding code to explicitly remove the data pages when processing has finished.

Calculation Builder made more robust for use in segments
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3
An error was generated when using the Calculation Builder in a segment, though the Calculation Builder for Report Definition worked. This was traced to code in the Calculation Builder which assumed the report page class would always be "Rule-Obj-Report-Definition", which failed for segments. To correct this, the logic has been modified to be more robust.

Error messaging updated for using Float parameter in RUF
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
After upgrade, using an RUF that had a float as an input parameter as part of its signature resulted in any callers providing a double type as an input generating an exception. This has been resolved by forcing a NumberFormatException to be thrown within the IL model when encountering a float value ('1.2f' or '1.2F') as the Double.valueOf() API used in IL correctly parses these values to double.

Password expiry logic updated to use start of day
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3
Previously, the password expiry logic was based on a tight format of number of days+ timeStamp. This caused scenarios such as not prompting for a password reset when user logs in, but rather at the exact time stamp of the previous change even if that comes in the middle of work and throws the user out of the session. To avoid this behavior, the password expiry logic is now based on number of days logic with timeStamp defaulted to start of day (00.00) taking care of locale and getting difference in number of days.

Updated Attach Content Control for use in repeat grid
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
When using Attach Content Control in a repeat grid, selecting a file via attachcontent control and submitting the page resulted in the message "The operation completed successfully, but returned no content". This was traced to the newassignPage being removed after closing the modal, causing finishassignment to fail. To resolve this, the Attach Content Control function has been modified to set the needed grid attributes for desktop implementation to ensure newAssignPage will be available to the attach content modal action.

External mapping definitions will be used for exported property names
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
Under the "External Mapping" tab on the class definition, if the property names specified were not the exact format as the column names defined in the database table, an exception was generated when using the "Export" feature. For this functionality, the system was generating an SQL which used the property names instead of column names. This resulted in an invalid column exception and the export did not work. To correct this, updates have been made to NativeSqlApiResolver in the function resolver to check for the property name and replace it with mapping defined in external mapping.

Support added for using OpenMobile app as a Navigation action
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
After adding a menu item to the pyCaseWorkerNavigation navigation rule that was configured to use the open mobile app action with a mobile app ID of opensignal, the menu item was displayed in the mobile app but clicking on it did nothing for the user and the JavaScript console logged the error "Cannot open mobile app without scheme". The same action worked as expected when called from a button. This was traced to the "OpenMobileApp" action not containing support for being used as Navigation action, and the necessary code for that use has now been added.

Corrected test connection for LDAP AuthService using keystore
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.4
When using a AuthService rule defined for LDAP using ldaps:// and a KeyStore rule that was defined to reference a local file in the server, the Test Connection button on the AuthService rule did not work and generated the following exception: "com.pega.apache.commons.httpclient.contrib.ssl.AuthSSLInitializationError: I/O error reading keystore/truststore file: null". Investigation showed that file reference keystore did not work with an LDAPS test connection because while run time used the LDAPVerifyCredentials activity, the design time validation used the activity “ValidateInfrastructure” which did not have the required code to support file reference keystore. This has been corrected.

Corrected PDF generation when an image filename has special characters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
When using Export to PDF with an uploaded image file that had special characters in its name, the images were missing from the generated document. This has been corrected by updating the decoding of the URL to not remove the checksum when using RTE.
