Logging for MultiNodeSynchronize lock attempts changed from error to warn
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The File Listener was logging numerous errors stating "Unable to establish MultiNodeSynchronize lock while trying to determine if listener is enabled for this node". Handling has been previously established for error cases when the Listener is unable to establish a MultiNodeSynchronize lock, but this condition continued to be logged as an error even though it was not related to any failures in functionality. To resolve the logging issue, the logger level has been changed from ERROR to WARN.

Adjusted email listener behavior for authentication failures
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, email listeners were not staying up during connection outages. This was traced to the handling of authentication failures when trying to reconnect, and has been resolved by changing the disconnected listener state to sleeping and raising an alert for authentication failures.

Loading timing updated for openAPI content
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Open API content loading was taking too much time and interfering with working on other REST rule configurations. To resolve this, the loading of openAPI contents has been removed from the opening or saving of REST rule and shifted to lazy loading. Clicking on the openAPI tab will load the contents, and any modification in REST rule or service package rule will update the contents of openAPI when "Action->Refresh" is clicked.

Fixed alias assigned to custom categories to handle Oracle limitations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When trying to access CHAT via interaction portal, Oracle SQL was fired with incorrect syntax. This was traced to an Oracle limitation of 30 characters on the length of the table name, table alias name, or column name in database versions prior to 12.2. This is caused an SQL exception if the Pega class name was more than 30 characters. To prevent this, a fixed alias has been assigned to the custom category table.

DSN message mapping corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Original-text-html was not correctly mapped to .pyInboundEmail.pyOriginalTextHtml . This has been resolved by removing an incorrect null check encountered while setting original-text-plain mapping for the DSN message while handling a DSN ReturnedMessagePart of type message/rfc822 and updating the handling for text parts which are not null.

Data Type local data storage snapshot history updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
When a History Class Data object was created, two snapshots were made - one with value and another with no value. This was traced to a 'when' condition that evaluated whether to add history when deleting a record from records editor, and this issue has been addressed by removing the condition as the history-add step takes care of checking if there is a dedicated table or not.

Fallback added for calculating date after upgrade
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
After upgrade, the date value returned from Stored procedure failed to be mapped to "date" type property. Stored Procedure was used to get data from an external Oracle database and then handed to a Data Transform to map the values. When the Data was fetched from the store procedure, the date properties were mapping correctly, but when these values were mapped from the clipboard into the usecase using a Data Transform, the data for date properties was becoming corrupted. This was traced to logic differences between the versions: 8.2 generated resolveToDate while in 8.5 generates resolveToBigDecimal. In this case, resolve to big decimal was being called with aType='D' and aValue=20200918, and the 20200918 number was being interpreted as days since 1 Jan 1970 instead of as a date. This has been resolved by adding a fallback for the date calculation.
