Enhanced diagnostic logging for Email Listener failures
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
In order to better diagnose issues where the email listener entered a disabled state as soon as it was started, a catch block has been added to enhance logging the reason of failure.

Updated HashMap logic for better concurrent thread handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
The Pega execution engine was getting stuck at com.pega.eclipse.util.collections.HashtableOfIntValues.get for many thread within thread dumps. Investigation showed that when the key was not present in keytable, a thread would be stuck in an endless 'while' loop related to mapping. To resolve this, the data structure that is used for ruleset mapping from HashtableOfIntValues to Concurrent HashMap has been modified to better handle concurrent threads, and the handling for get and put has been updated.

Blobless class handling updated in BIX extract
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
When performing a BIX extract to database, null values were seen for some columns when there were values present in the clipboard and the report definition. Analysis showed that an Extract Rule defined on a Blobless class with a property having a length greater than 30 would return a null value even when the source table's corresponding columns do not have null values. This was due to BIX using an internal Report Definition which would truncate the column alias if the length of the column was greater than 30: when the extract then tried to find the actual property name in the result page, it did not find it and returned a null value. To resolve this, if the class is Blobless, the system will iterate over the property and check whether it is truncated or not. If it it truncated, the truncated name will be used when looking for the property in the result page instead of using the unmatching actual property name. This will ensure the correct value populated in the result page will be used.

Updated sender email address validation to handle long domains
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
In some cases, attempting to create a case via an email was failing and the cases were being routed to the broken queue. The error "IndeterminateConditionalException: Unable to load data page D_TrackAutoResponse. Required parameters : SenderEmailAddress. cannot be blank" appeared. This was traced to regex having a validation on the length of a domain name which caused a lengthy 'from' address to be trimmed. To resolve this, the regex has been modified to validate the email address as per RFC5322.

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.

Null check added for ObjClass filter value
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
When a report definition was run with "Starts with" as a filter condition and "Use null if empty" was not checked, the message "An error occurred during resolving the report definition - null java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException" was logged. This did not appear if the filter condition was "is equal" and "Use null if empty" was checked. To resolve this, the system will check for a null or empty value on pxObjClass filter values before processing it for class descendants.

Resolved .PDF extension preview issue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Previewing a PDF that had the extension capitalized as ".PDF" did not load, but one with the extension ".pdf" worked. This has been corrected by modifying pxUploadFile and pzUploadFileToADocument to convert the filetype extension to lowercase to prevent possible preview problems.

Context retained during nested automation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Issues were seen with context being passed correctly with automation. When a Data Page that was used to abstract the call to a REST API used a Data Transform which in turn used a Data Page which also used a call to a REST API to retrieve an OAuth Token, an error appeared. The same worked when a URL was provided on the Connect REST. When a service case was launched but a Flow Action wasn't submitted, then another service case was added and submitted, the post-processing robotic automation activity used the run robotic automation activity from the previous service case instead of the current service case targeted for completion. This has been resolved by updating the webwb • pzpega_ui_doc_submit.js file to pass the correct MDIContext based on the event target of FA submission while invoking RDA automation.

Resolved auto-addition of UpdateDateTime filter to BIX history extract
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
When creating a BIX extract rule on history classes, trying to save the rule resulted in the invalid filter error "pxBIXReportPage—Cannot use a unexposed property". Analysis showed the pxUpdateDateTime column, which is the default filter on creating a new extract, was added automatically even though history classes do not have a pxUpdateDatetime column. While there was a workaround of manually removing the pxUpdateDateTime column filter when creating the extract rule for the first time, this has been resolved.

AttachmentContent supports S3 storage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.6
Using a D_AttachmentContent data page to display the contents of an attachment by way of the pyGetAttachmentContent activity worked when using the Pega database for storage, but generated an error stating CMIS access was disabled after switching to S3 storage. This was traced to restrictions on Link-Attachment pages in Step 2, Line 64 of pyGetAttachmentContent to enable attachment stream retrieval from web storage and repositories by D_AttachmentContent, which has now been removed. In addition, pyGetAttachmentContent has been updated to behave the same whether a Link-Attachment page or Data-WorkAttach page is provided when populateAttachStream is set to false, and the rule documentation (description/usage) has been updated accordingly.
