Clarified messages for attachment deletion failure
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When trying to delete an attachment on the work item without proper authorization, the tracer shows a message being added on TempAttachmentPage in Work- DeleteAttachment activity reading "You are not authorized to delete instance DATA-WORKATTACH-FILE ATPEGA-TASK ". However, this message was not being propagated to the screen and the screen was refreshing as if it worked despite the failure. To clarify the actual results, the DeleteAttachment Activity has been modified to present any messages and to avoid page removal of the TempAttachmentPage and TempLinkPage if there is a message.

Clarified handling of unlocked work objects in multinode environments
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Release lock was not working correctly on a multinode environment. When trying to release the lock from same operator different requestor from different nodes, the error "Unable to unlock this work object" was generated. In a multinode environment, system pulse takes time to update the cache across the nodes, hence the option is not effective immediately. Messaging has been updated to reflect this delay. Once System pulse executes then other requestor will be able to work on this item.

Addressed issue with Advanced Notes attachments reopening the work object
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a user attaches a note using the "Advanced" option, as part of the out-of-the-box activity it is recreating/retrieving the work object back from the database and causing any changes to the work object done prior to attachment to be lost. The issue was that the SaveNote activity InsHandle parameter was set but the PageName parameter was not, and the system would reopen the workobject assuming it was not in the workobject context. To solve this, the PageName parameter is now set in the SaveNote activity so that the AttachNote does not do an open of the workpage.

Resolved deletions issues for tables mapped to shared classes
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a class in a tenant was mapped to an external table and the tenant was deleted, the tenant deletion caused the external table to be dropped/deleted as well even though there was a class in the shared layer that was mapped to the same external table. To correct this, tables mapped to shared classes are not deleted during tenant deletion if there is a tenant class mapped to the same table.

Added NPE check for empty indexed pyID properties
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Certain searches resulted in a null pointer exception that appeared to be occurring in the FTSContentExecutor class. This issue was caused by a null (empty) pyID property in the indexed instance and has been corrected by inserting handling for any NPE generated in this circumstance.

Smoothed mode derivation for properties on adopted pages
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
In certain situations, adopting a page onto a Light weight list row might fail if the adopted page had some dummy undefined page properties. To resolve this, while adopting properties from adopted page, the system will derive the mode from properties on adopted page if they are not defined.

Added check for error in LDAP logins
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a user logged in as external authenticated user over LDAP, a null pointer exception was seen. This exception was generated by the ApplicationSetup activity because the system was missing a page due to the user not being fully identified at that point. To fix this, a null check has been inserted for this condition.

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
