Corrected mobile password control behavior on failed validation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Given a section on mobile where the out-of-the-box password control was used on a textbox with input field of type Password to set a new password, failed validation on the field caused the cursor on the input field to jump to the left. It was then not possible to delete the text or correct the placement of the cursor. This was traced to a missing type check for password in isTextBox(), and has been corrected.

Pulse @mention will avoid triggering search request if no suggestion list is available
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Search threads were causing requestor Lock Exceptions due to poorly optimized queries sent to ElasticSearch when a Pulse mention was attempting to look up a person (e.g. "@"+typing) and the search of case objects to match to that search were performing poorly. To resolve this, an update has been made to avoid triggering requests if the suggestions list is not available for the search query.

Local user lookup modifed to use requestor level data page to improve performance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
In a system with many users (over 40k), attempting to search for a user to send a private message was taking an excessive amount of time. Analysis found that all of the users were being loaded at once in a page list of type Code-Pega-List. This led to errors indicating the Page List property had more elements than the specified threshold, but pagination could not be added as the activity and Report Definition are final. To improve performance, this process has been modified to use a data page at the requestor level instead.

Added more error handling in pzCreateThumbnail
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
In activity pzCreateThumbnail, a null pointer error was generated at step 2. This was traced to the value of originalImage being null even though there was no error in the image file itself, and has been resolved by adding an error check .

Page cleanup processes updated to facilitate Pulse Task creation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Attempting to create a Pulse Task in an assignment resulted in a "The Operation completed successfully, but returned no content" screen after clicking submit. This was traced to an incorrect usage of createworkpage. To resolve this, the system has been updated so that before calling createworkpage, a page-remove will be done so createworkpage will not clean the assignment page.

Synchronization continuation updated so mobile attachments properly preview
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.5
Clicking on attachments in mobile would open them if the attachment had just happened, but otherwise would not open them at all. This was traced to an issue with Synchronization continuation: the page was properly loaded from database but its content was not used to fill the named OfflinePackage page (which contains only the search keys). This has been corrected by replacing the empty page with the one loaded from the database.

Handling added for missing expose.accessGroup property
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
After exposing an existing page group and page list properties along with single value properties using a declare index, running the Column Populator tool prpcServiceUtils to populate the historical data resulted in the single value properties being updated in the exposed column properly, but the page group and page list properties were not updated in the declare index table. On new case creation the declare index tables were updated. This was traced to the default expose.accessGroup not being set for the user, and has been resolved by adding a check and handling that will add the missing property in prpcserviceutils.properties defining the access group for the Rule-Declare-Index of the classes being exposed if it is not present.

Warnings pull from report definition page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
When a report definition filter was used in the "Class instances to include" section of the Product rule, severe warnings appeared noting "Report definition filter performance issues for LookupDataMigration : Using a custom HTML control to format a column may result in poor performance displaying query results. Consider using auto-generated HTML controls". However, the report definition used, LookupDataMigration, has no Custom HTML control in the latest version of the rule, and the "CheckForWarnings" rule for the product was running a report definition in the "Index-Warning" class which has the warnings for all the versions of the rule. This was due to warnings being displayed in the product for the report definition filter without applying rule resolution for report definition, resulting in warnings from all report definition version rules from a ruleset given a report definition name. This has been resolved by adding an update which will use Obj-Open to read the warnings from report definition page instead of looking up for warnings from Index-Warnings table.

Pega Keystore supported for hotfix signature verification

Patchdate values made unique
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.4
The hotfix manager was incorrectly indicating that a previous hotfix was not installed or was partially installed and should be reinstated. This scenario was created during security updates where the missing/incomplete hotfix had been deliberately deleted from the database, and has been resolved by adding an update which will force patchdate to be unique when adding duplicate code resources during tests.
