Default compiler pool size increased
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
An issue was seen where the nodes were continuously terminating and Stream service was not started. Error messages indicated a "WARN - Long running request detected for requestor", and that tasks were waiting for the generic object pool. Analysis showed that it was possible for a deadlock to form during the startup of the system or during the first few rule executions and compilations when there were more than five rules trying to compile. Once the variable LibraryMetadata.TypeEnvironment.resolver (ClassLoader) is initialized, the problem would resolve. To prevent the deadlock, the default compiler pool size has been increased from 5 to 10.

Obj-Browse will retrieve more than 50 records
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
After performing multiple skims, a newly added property was not retrieved when an Obj-Browse was performed. In Obj-Browse action, when a class is mapped to an external table and does not contain BLOB column pzpvstream, in a specific case where pxObjClass value is a reference to a parameter, a list of properties mapped to the class explicitly by querying pr4_rule_property table using NativeSQL is fetched. This call by default returns only 50 records: in cases where there are more than 50 properties for an external class, some of the properties from the obj-browse response mapping are therefore missed. To resolve this, the limit of 50 records has been removed from this NativeSQL call.

Enhancements added for using AWS file repositories
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Enhancements have been added to improve the use of AWS file storage: - Logging for AWS SDK connection metrics can be activated on a per-repository basis, either through the ruleform or through the DSS `storage/class/:/enableMetrics`. - INFO logging can be enabled on PegaAWSSDKMetricReporter to periodically output averages of recorded metrics for all registered S3 repositories with metric collection enabled, or INFO logging can be enabled on PegaAWSRequestMetricCollector to output recorded metrics on every client call for all registered S3 repositories with metric collection enabled. - The interval at which PegaAWSSDKMetricReporter logs metrics at can be configured with the DASS `storage/AWSSDK/metricReportingInterval`. This DASS is a system-wide setting, and not a per-repository setting. The default reporting interval is 90 seconds, and metric collection is disabled on all repositories by default.

Decision table and tree obey allow missing properties checkbox
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Calling the decision table/tree inside another decision table/tree which has a missing property was throwing an error even though the "AllowMissingProperties" checkbox was enabled in the caller activity. Analysis showed that the setting for AllowMissingProperties did not carry into any subsequent DecisionTree/DecisionTable calls from the top DecisionTree/DecisionTable, and this has been resolved by modifying the decision table and decision tree obtain value functions to pass AllowMissingProperties.

Added handling for Google Chrome drag and drop of Outlook email
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Attempting to drag and drop an email from Outlook to a case opened in Chrome resulted in the email being moved to the Outlook deleted folder. This was traced to Chrome defaulting to defining the "dropEffect" attribute as "none" when the expectation is it should be "copy". To resolve this, the recommended handling from Microsoft has been added as an event to make a copy (and not a move) an email from Outlook when dragged and dropped with Chrome.

Logging updated for EmailListener and Data-Agent queue items
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
In order to avoid the pr_sys_queue_ftsindexer table being overwhelmed with Data-Admin-Connect-EmailListener and Data-Agent-Queue instances for queued items, the Data-Admin-Connect-EmailListener and Data-Agent-Queue class definitions have been modified to filter queue items to incremental indexing if updates are from system and instance type is data- .

Check added for Repositories before saving attachment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
When creating or updating a case through email listener, the Link-Attachment defaulted the pxStorageType to 'WebStorage'. This caused an issue when using PegaS3, which needs pxStorageType 'Repository'. To resolve this, a check has been added to see if Repositories are enabled, and if they are the storageType will be set accordingly.

Resolved thread deadlock for rules upgrade process
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Platform upgrade was getting hung during the rules upgrade process. This was traced to a deadlock related to the conclusion cache entry for a property needing to make a call to declarative cache, where it tried to hold a read-write lock on a resource that was already locked by another thread. This has been resolved by replacing lock with tryLock to avoid deadlock.

Encoding added for special characters in JFROG filenames
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
A blank screen or the error "Unable to get the file from Repository" appeared when attempting to attach a file from JFROG Repository if the file name contained special characters. This has been resolved by modifying the artificatory URL generation to properly encode special characters during file download.

Performance improvement for queries on Kafka partitions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Even though there were multiple dataflow nodes available in the cluster, all requests were going to single node and causing system slowness. Investigation showed there was a queue processor rule that included the pxPartitionKey attribute which forced all records to be sent to a single partition by Kafka producers. This attribute has been removed.
