INC-128535 · Issue 566316

Exception handling updated for getRunTime

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2

After upgrade, a Java step related to API Runtime.getRunTime() was failing to execute UNIX commands in all applications that contained the code. Investigation showed that once the java injection code was detected, the API checkForJavaCodeInjection() reported an exception, but the exception should have been absorbed by the function calling it and was not. This has been resolved by updating the system to not throw the exception for old activities. In addition, an alert was generated for the Pega platform activity SysWebInfo. As this was a false alarm, an update has been made to not report such alerts for Pega platform activities.

Refresh-Other section correctly shifts focus on tab out

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2

After upgrade, a difference was seen in the behavior of the Refresh-Other section action functions. Previously, focus was shifted to the next field when tabbing out, which is the desired behavior. Investigation showed that this was a result of modifications made to resolve other focus issues, and the previous behavior has been returned by updating the conditions used to call the "focusNextElement" method to include a check whether the reloadElement is stale, and to get the focusElement from DOM based on name (pega.util.Dom.getElementsByName(focusElemName)) if needed.

Corrected undefined class error during browser refresh

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2

After enabling a Report left navigation link for the CaseWorker portal, the browser refresh after opening a report from Report landing page was throwing the exception "Problem invoking function: pega_processengine_workutilities.pzHasAccessToWorkPool--(String), Undefined class "ReportBrowser"". This was a missed refresh usecase for ReportDefinition action in SPA portals after SPA was modified to use a separate thread for inner harness, and has been resolved by adding a condition to ensure the reportDefinition action also executes the displayOnPage action on browser refresh.

Null check added to resolve non-impacting InvalidParameter exception

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

Creating a child case from the SLA goal activity using the 'AddCovered' activity generated the message "Exception in queue item: cannot be null or blank". The error "com.pega.pegarules.pub.clipboard.InvalidParameterException: cannot be null or blank" was also seen. However, no functionality impact was observed. This has been resolved by adding a null check to the getPortalName method, and modifying the HarnessUIBuilder.java file to add safe checks for whether 'portalName' is empty or not.

SR-D15261 · Issue 487511

Added ability to edit or SaveAs out-of-the-box 'Case Volume' report

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.6

It was not possible to perform Edit or Save As to a Private category for the Pega out-of-the-box report 'Case Volume', which is under the Public category 'Case Metrics'. This was traced to certain out-of-the-box report definitions being saved with a pz prefix which does not support the "Save As" functionality, and has been resolved by adding a Property-Set step above "Call pxCreateRecord" to set .pyRuleAvailable to "Yes".

Updated logic for imagepicker to resolve icon changes in containers

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.2

When attempting to change the expand or collapse icon, the error "pega.openUrilInModal.showModalDialog - error when calling callbackfunction : 'C.getElementById is not a function' in pega" was generated. Investigation showed that the browser-level JS file 'pega_ui_harness_deferred' was missing parameters needed to return the value from the showModalDialog method due to a hardcoded loop for the imagepicker only iterating through a set number of levels. This has been resolved by updating the logic to recursively find the document.

Refresh works for nested lists

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.1

After creating Pagelist A with another Pagelist within (B), a section was created with a repeating dynamic layout to display Pagelist A and a button was added with action set to refresh this section. In the embedded section of the repeating dynamic layout, a nested repeating dynamic layout was created for Pagelist B and a button was set to refresh this section. When using this configuration, the refresh was returning the actionID for Pagelist A regardless of which button was used. To resolve this, an update has been made which will iterate over the stack and append the individual indexes to the encoded value in the pzAPICreateJsonForField function.

SR-D76291 · Issue 547842

Updated retry logic for S3 AddAttachmentFromEmail

Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8

When using the AddAttachmentFromEmail activity with S3 repositories, performing an obj-save on the data-workattach-file page executes a deferred save while also saving the file into the repository. if the data was inserted into S3 successfully but encountered an issue when saving the related data-work-attach-file page, the system was trying to call the save operation again. This tried to insert the duplicate attachment again to S3, causing an error on that side of the process. To resolve this, the duplicate Obj-Save functionality in AddAttachmentFromMail Activity has been removed.

Null check added to resolve non-impacting InvalidParameter exception

Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.3

Creating a child case from the SLA goal activity using the 'AddCovered' activity generated the message "Exception in queue item: cannot be null or blank". The error "com.pega.pegarules.pub.clipboard.InvalidParameterException: cannot be null or blank" was also seen. However, no functionality impact was observed. This has been resolved by adding a null check to the getPortalName method, and modifying the HarnessUIBuilder.java file to add safe checks for whether 'portalName' is empty or not.
