DeleteOrphanStaticContent activity modified to prevent CSS errors

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

Smoothed post-upgrade ApplicationSetup that uses previously generated LDAP configs

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

An LDAP configuration created under a previous version of the software was generating an NPE after upgrading. This was traced to step2 of the ApplicationSetup activity where the system was expecting a page which was missing at that point due to the user not yet being fully identified. To avoid this, a step has been added to check if the page is available and avoid the NPE.

Java thread names corrected for Designer Studio developer activities

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

When trying to run an activity from the Designer Studio developer window, the error "Section 'pxRunRecord' execution error on page 'RunRecordWindow' of class 'Pega-RunRecord" was appearing.

Resolved issue with extraneous leading "." in attached properties

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

When attaching a file, there were two extra (duplicate) properties created in the Link-Attachment page: .pxCreateDateTime and .pyCategory, each with a dot in front of the name. This caused an error when attempting to modify or copy the page: "The reference .pxCreateDateTime is not valid. Reason: invalid property name: '.pxCreateDateTime'". This was found to be an issue where 'pxCreateDateTime' and 'pyCategory' were being corrupted when set using the put() API. To correct this, the code has been changed to use the PutString() API instead of Put() in the java for the pyCategory property.

SR-123609 · Issue 184384

Added timeout for SendEmailMessage and SendEmail RUFs

Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8

A problem was noted with case auto-creation from email occasionally stopping. This was due to the out-of-the-box sendemailmessage function not having any mechanism to stop the requestor from waiting after certain period of time, meaning if the email server was down at that point of time the PRPC requestor kept on waiting forever for the connection. To resolve this, a default timeout of 60000 ms (1 minute) has been added to the SendEmailMessage and SendEmail RUFs. The error "The Connection to be outbound email server timed out. The Server may be unavailable, or the connection configuration may be incorrect. Verify Username, Password and SSL options" will appear. This timeout value can be overridden by creating a Dynamic System Setting with name "email/timeout" in "Pega-IntSvcs" ruleset to set the desired value.
