Email Listener timeout tuned for EAR deployments
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When the email listener encountered an error in installations with EAR deployments, it stopped processing emails until the listener was restarted manually. This was caused by the Timer variable being static in EAR deployments with no logic available to reset it, so it continued to grow over time and could result in sleep times of days. Logic has now been added to reset the timer. The default sleep time has also been set to increase 30 seconds each time an error is encountered to a max of 90 seconds (sleep times are 5 , 30 , 60, 90 seconds) at which point it will reset.

New default directory setting added to DDL generation
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If the DDL for a new PRPC installation was generated without using the optional parameter for the file location, the file was created in the root directory. To avoid this, a default gen_dir setting (./schema/generated) has been added to generateDDL.sh to handle cases when the parameter has not been set.

Added integration for Microsoft Azure Root Certificates
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Attempting to implement Single Sign On using MS AZURE AD was failing. This was due to the Microsoft Azure Root Certificates not being correctly configured/imported into the target Application Server. Microsoft Technical Support was engaged and recommended manually exporting the required certificate from Azure and importing into the target environment as a workaround, and this integration has now been addressed with updates to the XML Security ResourceBundle.

Fixed handling issues with substitutions enabled Parse XML rules
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Parse XML rules generated from an XML schema (xsd) saved in draft and "Not available" were generating Java errors when attempting to check out the rules and make them available. This happened when there were substitution elements and an embedded reference to the same element, and was caused by improper handling of the substitution helper method. This has been corrected.

Resolved Connect SOAP header mapping issue
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In the Connect SOAP rule, a Request tab configured with a Request Header field using XML Stream option was missing the PEGA tag in the generated SOAP header. This was caused by an error in the Axis stack and has been corrected to ensure all elements defined in the MapFrom XML rule are correctly generated.

Resolved installation errors for DB2 Z/OS with WebSphere
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
A problem was encountered while installing split schema on a DB2 z/OS system with WebSphere. This was caused by an erroneous system setting where the ports to the DB2 database were not open in this environment. While the Admin could correct the environment to open the ports and allow the application server node to connect to the DB2 database, this has been changed in the software to default to the correct settings.

Datetime properties format improved for backwards compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
After upgrading, the search API was returning datetime properties in an incorrect format, causing a page error that was sometimes visible to an end user. The error only occurred if additional processing was happening in that page that caused the validation dictionary to launch. The root cause of this problem was a backwards compatibility defect related to Elastic Search, and it has been corrected.

Operators and Access Groups are now automatically force re-indexed during import
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If a number of new OperatorIDs were created and added to two workgroups and then the changes were exported, the new OperatorIDs were present when the file was imported to other environments but a query run against the table PR_INDEX_OPERATOR_WORKGROUP did not incorporate the new IDs. While there was a workaround of manually forcing a re-index during import to fully incorporate the new IDs, the Operators and Access Groups are now automatically force re-indexed during import to ensure data is up to date.

Creation and testing corrected for ATOM server connection using Alfresco 4.2
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When creating a new ATOM Server instance with Alfresco 4.2, an error was logged and shown on the screen. This process worked with Alfresco 4.0. In the process of upgrading openCMIS jars, Atom and SOAP server connectivity tests were also changed to use HTTP, and Atom Server connectivity tests should now work for all versions of Alfresco.
