SR-A9198 · Issue 218533

Text retrieval for deprecated "Query" button updated for universal browser support

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2

The Firefox popup window provided by the Product rule when querying "Individual Instances to Include" failed to transpose the selected rule information back into the Product ruleform when the OK button was clicked. This was due to the use of the deprecated "Query" button, which does not have support for all browsers, to launch the ListView. To handle this, the node text retrieval method in DataInstancesQueryScript has been updated to use the 'textContent' function (compatible with all browsers) instead of the previous 'innerText'.

Added handling for null rollback info in hotfix autocommit

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2

If AutoCommit was selected while installing a hotfix, the auto-commit would fail and leave the hotfix in an Uncommitted state if there were dependent hotfixes where changes were covered by the parent and the child was superseded after installing the parent. Manual commitment of the hotfix worked as expected. This was an edge case where the older hotfix did not get rollback information saved since its components were already installed or superseded, and AutoCommit has been updated to handle this missing information.

Upgrade Assistant enhanced to better resume interrupted process

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2

If the system suffered a crash during upgrade, IUA was incorrectly identifying the DB as having completed the upgrade and would import outstanding rules based on the perceived Database BLOB version. This led to a storage-type mismatch between Prod and all lower environments, and BIX jobs would fail due to not being upgraded. An enhancement has been added to the Upgrade Assistant to correctly resume an interrupted upgrade process.

SR-A12287 · Issue 223279

Alter Script generates correct SQL for Oracle db

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2

During installation, an incorrect Alter Script was being generated while importing the JAR file due to a missing check on the 'required' XML attribute for dbtype Oracle to decide whether it should be null or not null. This has been corrected to honor the 'required' attribute and accordingly the generated SQL will be appended with null/not null string.

SR-A12687 · Issue 226506

Skimming logic corrected

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2

The skimming logic (PegaRULESMove_Skimming_Query) has been updated to correctly repopulate the query page in order to return a more accurate rules count.

SR-A2733 · Issue 220049

Migration process handles underlying varchar CHAR

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2

Handling for CHAR length semantics has been added for imports of rule schema to support Oracle varchar2 columns, and the import/export will correctly deal with the circumstanced columns of CASETYPEVERSION and PXREFOBJECTCLASS.

SR-D22505 · Issue 493366

Circumstancing template and definitions assembly modified to avoid calling RD

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

After deploying a new rollout, errors such as "Only authenticated client may start this activity: RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY RULE-OBJ-REPORT-DEFINITION" and "You lack access required to execute RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY RULE-OBJ-REPORT-DEFINITION" appeared. Investigation showed that during an unauthenticated session, executing Report Definitions or accessing database (with securityCheck enabled) are not allowed. When someone wants to use circumstanced rules during the custom authentication process, and if the circumstancing rules are not assembled yet, then assembly of the circumstanced rules triggers the assembly of circumstance template and definitions. During this process the system used Report definition, but since execution of RD is not allowed without authentication the assembly was failing. This has been resolved with two changes: the MergeDefintions activity which is invoked during assembly of CircumstanceTemplate : database.open() has replaced the pxRetrieverReportData activity (which invokes RD to fetch circumstances definitions), and the GetAllDefinitionRows activity which is invoked from MergeDefinitions : database.open has replaced Obj-open in step 3.

SR-D24900 · Issue 503875

Security update for RequestMap error logging

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

In HttpAPI, the RequestMap contains Cookie information. In error conditions, this map gets logged. An update has been made to ensure that the Cookie value is not logged if there is an error.

Uploaded attachments will receive a unique name to prevent overwriting

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

An issue with an incorrect file being attached to a work object was traced to overlapping processes. When files are uploaded, they are first saved to common HDD directory and then read into memory and deleted from the HDD area. Files will overwrite other file carrying the same name, which is a problem if the first file is not completely uploaded and is waiting in the common directory and some other file with the same name is uploaded on top of it. To resolve this, an update has been made to ensure file names are appended with a unique identifier to distinguish between files carrying the same names and keep them from overwriting each other.

SR-D28083 · Issue 512937

DeleteOrphanStaticContent CacheConfigID populated on node startup

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

The pzDeleteOrphanStaticContent activity which triggers to clear cache was unable to clear the files in the static content folder and in the database when the files were more than one week old. In order to correctly cleanup old static content, pzAsmCacheConfigID must be populated in py_sys_statusnodes. However, when SystemNodesDAO was introduced to populate pr_sys_statusnodes, pzAsmCacheConfigID was not populated. To resolve this, pzAsmCacheConfigID is now populated on node startup when node information is added to pr_sys_statusnodes.
