Email Listener auto-reply evaluation updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, messages were being read but not getting processed for a specific Email listener (RCEmailListerner). The error "Email flagged as an autoreply email and will not be processed" appeared in the logs. Previously, an email was not considered to be an auto-reply only when the 'auto-submitted' header didn't exist or existed with value 'no'. This caused issues with auto-forward or auto-redirect emails where 'auto-submitted:auto-generated' could be in the header. Due to this, email was marked as auto-reply and email listener stopped processing it. To resolve this, the system has been modified to mark the message as auto-reply if it finds 'auto-submitted: auto-replied' in the header, but not 'auto-submitted:auto-generated'.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
A StartOperation error was seen due to a declare trigger getting fired before the engine was fully up, indicating "UnresolvedAssemblyError: Error occurred trying to parse the expression and augmenting the code: java.lang.NullPointerException". This has been resolved by adding an enhancement that handles "self healing" for assembly errors.

Date field correctly extracted for IMAP inbound email
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, email-sourced cases were not being created correctly. Tracer showed the date field was blank, causing an error which was traced to the getReceivedDate being returned as null for the JavaMail AP even though the IMAP protocol was being used. This was an unintended side effect of work done to handle a throttling exception in the IMAP inbound email flow, and has been resolved by updating the system so that if the getReceivedDate is null, the date will be extracted from the mail header while processing dates in EmailMessageInfo class.

JobScheduler initialization timing adjusted
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
DDS nodes were ending up in a deadlock condition on restart, preventing them from joining the cluster. This has been resolved by ensuring the JobScheduler initialization task waits for Search to start up.

Updated visibility condition expression handling for decimal values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, any visibility condition expression failed to evaluate decimal values that used precision. When 0 (zero) was entered as a value in the input field, a button that was configured to show was visible as expected. When the value was entered as 0.0, the input failed and the button did not show. The problem did not happen "Run visibility condition on client" was enabled. Investigation showed this was an issue with how the When expression was evaluated and calculated within JspWhenEvaluate, and has been resolved.

Reinitializing Full Text Search will shut down Elastic Search regardless of search initialization status
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Pega search was only sporadically working after converting from standard sandbox-marketing to largesandbox-marketing. This was traced to the Full-Text Search initialization having failed on the app-tier node during re-initialization. As part of re-initialization, the existing node is shut down and the Elastic Search node is started. The shutdown process relied on a boolean flag which indicated if the current status of full-text search initialization was successful. In this case, ES was trying to validate all the cluster level settings, for every save of one of the cluster level settings, but could not due to topology changes in the Util Tier node. The boolean flag indicated initialization had failed so the shutdown process was not invoked, yet the system was attempting to start the second instance of an ES node on the same machine. To resolve this, the shutdown FTS code has been modified to shutdown ES regardless of the search initialization status.

Resolved timeout errors related to getIndexInfo
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When attempting to import large files (around 300MB) via Designer Studio a time out error was seen, but the same upload worked as expected from the command line. Investigation showed that the "approximate" argument in getIndexInfo caused wasteful analytic operations to be run on the database, hampering performance. To resolve this, areas where the results of the analysis are not needed have been modified to have aApproximate set to be true so it will not be run.
