Added handling for double quotes when converting tables

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

After importing some packages from development to production, DDL conversion failed for tables with 30 characters in the table name when the import file contained a "Create VIEW" sentence. This was due to the addition of double quotes (" "). The table rename utility was not expecting to handle quoted table names, so as a result the addition of the quotation mark characters were included in the length calculation, and when renaming was performed it yielded syntactically invalid names (with leading " in the name). To resolve this, an update has been made which will strip quotes from table names being passed into TableRenameUtil.

Unneeded AUC error percentage calculation removed for better system performance

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

When generating snapshots of the ADM models, an inefficiency in the metric calculation for the AUC error percentage caused an excessive amount of memory to be allocated which could cause slowdown or require a system reboot. This has been resolved by removing the problematic AUC error percentage calculation as it is not used in the UI.

CustomerData schema added to list of databases for optimization

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

was no "Create?" column. This column appeared for the PegaDATA database but not for CustomerData. To resolve this, the Optimize Schema Landing Page has been updated to treat the CustomerData schema as a shipped Pega database.

Colon in folder or file name will be replaced with underscore during unzip

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

After creating a product file (zip), attempting to import the same file into an updated system resulted in an exception. Investigation showed that in this case the zip file was a Product rule form which had applications packaged with a colon(:) in the name of the application, a format that was allowed in 6.x versions. Because Windows machines restrict creating creating any folder or file with : in its name, the zip file could not be inflated as part of the import process. To resolve this, the system has been updated so that a colon(:) will be replaced by underscore(_) during inflate operations.

Stream Registration deprecated and replaced

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Previously, Stream Registration, which was added as an extra layer of protection during the display of stream rules, automatically registered any streams being used in the context and checked this registry during reloadSection/reloadHarness calls to prevent Broken Access Control attacks. However, only an alert was thrown and no further action was being taken on it. With platform added support for URL Tampering, Stream Registration is no longer required and has been deprecated. The URL Tampering function has the capabilities to register for auto/non-auto rules and configure whether to display warning or reject the request for all the activities, and not just the stream rules. Note that URL Tampering will do registration/validation only when security/rejectTamperedRequests is explicitly set to true.

Logout Redirect updated to handle special characters in IDP parameters

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

When using "HTTP Redirect" in Authentication Service, the Logout Redirect service was failing due to the query parameter name containing "_" (underscore). This was traced to IDP sending parameters to assertion consumer service or logout request endpoint with names which contained any special characters, as the system was trying to put those key values on the parameter page for additional processing. To resolve this, the system has been updated to suppress exceptions when the parameters from IDP includes special characters.

Kerberos authentication parameters propagated for deployment

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Attempting to perform a deployment using Kerberos authentication to an Oracle database failed with an authentication error. This was traced to the java system properties (for example, -Dname=value) required by the Oracle JDBC driver for Kerberos authentication intermittently not being set when connections were being made to the database. When they were not being set, the connection would fail due to authentication. This has been resolved by ensuring the java system properties (-D's) that were provided to the 'custom.jvm.properties' property in the collection of deployment related *.properties files are being propagated to every part of the deployment scripts.

Added handling for Authorization Server login loop

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

When the Authorization server returned an error, it was redirecting back with error, error_description, and parameters. The system then tried to start the login process again, the same error parameters were returned again, and it continued to loop this way. To resolve this issue, handling has been added for this error scenario from the Authorization Server.

View Full History will not include private edits

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

After upgrade, clicking 'View Full History' and then 'History of All Versions', showed the history of discarded private edits of other users. This was an inadvertent side effect of work done to improve the support for rollback and migration, and has been resolved by updating the system to not save the history when in a personal ruleset (checkouts/private edits). The help documentation has also been updated to note there is no history available for checkouts/private edits.
