Value Finder updated for use with external Cassandra nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Attempting to use the Value Finder feature resulted in the error "Running Simulation is not possible because the required services are not available. Contact your System Administrator to enable the data flow and decisioning data store services." Analysis traced this to a check which identifies whether there is more than one internal node available for CDH/ DSS node. Since there were only external nodes available in this scenario and no internal nodes, the method returned false and returned the error when the CDH / VF page was launched. To resolve this, the check has been modified to allow for external Cassandra.

Documentation updated for accents and special characters used in search
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The "Pega search API" article has been updated to reflect that the search functionality in Pega Platform does not match accented words with unaccented. For example, searching for santé and sante will retrieve different results. In addition, Domain Specific Language (DSL) includes special characters for use when searching, for example '-', '_', '!', '@'. However, the system retrieves various results depending on the way the special characters are used in the search query. If the query contains special characters that are not escaped, the system may retrieve incorrect results. For example, not escaping the slash mark in the 25/02 query may cause the system to ignore the special character.

Handling added for missing div when opening work object
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
In mobile offline app, opening a work object in a specific scenario for the second time resulted in an endless busy indicator. It was not possible to navigate away, and the app had to be closed and reopened to continue. Investigation showed that some app sections had an action that tried to load a harness section where one specific div was missing, and this has been resolved by updating reloadSectionOSCOHandler to handle the missing div in the failure callback. Additionally a console.error() will appear for the missing section.

Admin Studio will consider cluster protocol when returning listener status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using a few nodes in standalone mode for BIX extract combined with server nodes using Hazelcast, opening the admin studio pages with service discovery caused an error to be thrown. This was traced to the system writing an entry to pr_sys_statusnodes table as an embedded node whenever a BIX extract was triggered, causing those standalone nodes to be incorrectly considered by the listener landing page. This has been resolved by configuring the system to either return the local member when the cluster protocol is standalone or to return all Hazelcast members if the cluster protocol is Hazelcast.

Fixed error when trying to discard a circumstanced Report Definition rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
Attempting to discard and delete a circumstanced Report Definition rule resulted in an error on screen, in the tracer, and in the log file. This was caused by the system being unable to identify a reserved property when circumstanced on an embedded page or primary page. To correct this, the saveCircumstanceIndex rule of Rule- activity's first step has been modified to get the circumstanced property for this use.

SQL Merge use clarified for custom Tomcat installations
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Logic was added to ML7 to disable the SQL Merge command in environments that do not support it, but this was failing with an exception trying to parse the Tomcat name/version string if the installation was using a custom version of Tomcat and the string was not in the expected format. To handle this, the logic has been updated to to handle a custom Tomcat Name/Version string that may or may not contain version information. However, please note the following important information: The system will disable Merge if the out-of-the-box Tomcat version is detected where version If the system is using a custom Tomcat instance

Corrected save-as for Activity using API "02"
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In drop down generation, if a value was empty then adding the selected attribute for the first option assuming no options should have the empty value other than no selection text. To make this work as expected, if the value is empty then the system will add the selected attribute on the option which has empty value to avoid setting first option value to the hidden field.

Added handling for custom skin using the $ symbol for value
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2
After upgrade, using a custom style sheet to display the $ symbol prior to values being shown or entered caused the application skin to not log and throw an error. This was caused by a missed use case for adding $ in css :before or :after content due to a dependency on this "$" notation for fetching right mixin color from skin color. The array index out of bounds exception was generated by the statemachine parser while handling special characters because it considered the quotes of csscontent to be corrupted. To resolve this, an extra check has been added for handling """ and "'" cases in cssCustomParser.java and junits have been updated.
