PrepareResponse updated to explictly close Input Handler
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
When using prpcServiceUtils to export a product in a Windows+Weblogic environment, attempting to export repeatedly using the same archiveName with the intention of overwriting the older product with the newer one in the ServiceExport directory failed with a FileNotFoundException. Investigation showed that the product file that was created by the pzExport REST call was not being released by the Weblogic File Handler process. Due to this, the next time the call was invoked the system tried to create the same file in the directory but failed due to the earlier File handle lock. To resolve this, the system has been updated to explicitly close the InputStream using try-with-resources.

Handling added for dual privileges with MSSQL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
After setting up dual privileges, the Admin user was able to create a table but the base user received an "insufficient privileges" error. Investigation showed this was an issue when using MSSQL: the generated grant statements used the server login name as the user in the grant statement, instead of the database user. For all other databases, the username passed into the connection is the correct user to use for grants. Only MSSQL has a distinction between this connection user name (the login) and the database user, and since the login did not exist in the user table, the grant failed. To resolve this, when MSSQL is used, the system will fetch the underlying database user when determining the user for grant statement generation.

Post-Import Migration Agent query optimized
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
A Post-Import Migration agent belonging to the Pega-ImportExport Ruleset and set to run every 60 seconds by default triggered the SQL query "select ASTERISK from pegadata.pca_CWT_CXP_Work_Interaction" which ran for an excessive amount of time, caused a utilization spike, and then crashed the utility nodes. Investigation showed the excessive run time and load was caused by the query fetching a very large number of results. To better handle this scenario, the query usage has been updated.

Check for circular references added to SearchInventoryImpl to prevent recursive call
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
An out of memory error was traced to SearchInventoryImpl infinitely recursing over a clipboard property, where the child property referenced a parent property and resulted in an endless loop. This has been resolved with the addition of a depth check to ensure that the search does not recurse infinitely.

ProductInfoReader updated to fetch only most recent version information
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
After update, running Hfix scanner on Pega Marketing 8.2 displayed missed critical Hfixes for Pega Marketing 8.1. This has been resolved by modifying ProductInfoReader.runQuery to fetch only latest version of DAPF instances during a scan.

IOException handling improved to resolve broken pipe errors
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Frequent "connection reset by peers" exceptions were being generated and broken-pipe exceptions were seen in the logs. Investigation traced the issue to unhanded IOExceptions on the server side that were a result of the client application not always closing the TCP connection gracefully. To resolve this, error handling for IOExceptions has been improved.

Property Rule Form refreshes after discarding changes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.2
After updating from Pega 8.2 to Pega 8.6 and migrating the properties, modifying any property rule and then discarding the change did not refresh the Property Rule Form. Investigation showed that the LOG-SYSTEM-PROPERTYOPTIMIZATION instance created during property optimization was not getting deleted when a property was deleted. As this was not getting deleted, the property was shown as optimized when adding the property back, causing confusion. This has been resolved by cleaning up the LOG-SYSTEM-PROPERTYOPTIMIZATION instance when the property is deleted and there is an optimization entry.

SSLContext created using protocol from REST connector rule form
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
After upgrading to IBM websphere v9.0.5.6 or higher, API calls Like REST, Connect-HTTP etc were failing to connect to endpoints using TLSv1.2. Investigation showed that although the connector was configured to send TLSv1.2, the ClientHello handshake was triggered for TLSv1.3. Because the SSLContext was created with highest version supported by protocol in the WAS container, this has been resolved by modifying the code to create SSLContext based on the the protocol selected in the REST connector rule form. Additionally, please note that the Connect-HTTP connector has been deprecated and the Connect-REST capabilities in the platform should be used instead.

Ruleset Restoration Utility repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Attempting to use the standard Ruleset Restoration utility after update was resulting in a "Status:fail Operator:Unauthenticated or not available Node:No ID available" error message. This was a missed use case for the refactoring done around importing rules, and was caused by the utility calling the deprecated Importable.isValidImport() method. This has been resolved by updating the import activity to restore its functionality.
