SR-D96368 · Issue 555742

10 minute cap added to lockout time interval for failed logins

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2

After a certain number of failed attempts, there is a process that locks out the operator for a time interval. When the interval has expired and the operator is able to try again, the next "lockout" uses a time interval double the prior size. Previously, this was able to grow without any restriction. In order to improve effective requestor management, an upper limit has been added for maximum lockout period. The default has been set at 10 minutes or 600 seconds, but this may be configured using the DSS : authPolicy/delay/maxDelay in the Ruleset: Pega-Engine. The value is set in seconds: if the value specified in the DSS is greater than 600 seconds, then the maximum lockout period will fall back to 600 seconds (10 minutes).

CDK key loading modified for better database compatibility

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2

Users were unable to log on to the system and received the error "There has been an issue; please consult your system administrator." Investigation showed the log errors stating "(dataencryption.DataKeyProvider) ERROR localhost - Could not get CDK from systemKeyManagementCache - System CDK is null". This was an issue specific to the MS SQL Server database when there were 6 or more CDKs in the database: CDK keys are loaded from database into Cache using an SQL statement which had the ORDER clause. By default, the ORDER clause treats NULL values differently on different databases, and this caused MS SQL databases to not load a necessary CDK key. To resolve this, the SQL query has been modified so the result will be the same for all supported daatbases (Oracle, Postgres & MS SQL Server).

Accessibility improved for Pega Survey Question pages

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

Question Pages in Pega Survey lacked accessibility. This was traced to aria-label not being generated for Radio buttons and Drop-downs, and "title" not being generated for other controls used in Question and Question Pages. This has been resolved.

SR-D68572 · Issue 543002

Added check for duplicate attachment names with S3

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

S3 Storage does not allow duplicate file names, but the AttachContent function was allowing duplicate file attachments. Due to this, the sync was failing to attach on the server and the message was never communicated to the client. This has been resolved by adding a check for duplicate file names when the storage is repository.

Corrected Microsoft Internet Explorer displaying checkboxes as sliders

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

Checkboxes were displaying as sliders in IE version11.1304.17134.0 due to IE returning Table pc 2.0. Since Pega HTML class includes tablet, .tablet related styles were getting picked up and displaying the checkboxes in tablet mode. To resolve this, a check has been added to pyIsTablet to evaluate correctly at runtime.

SR-D85780 · Issue 547813

Corrected iosVersion handling for getDirections

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

When opening the map function in the iPhone app, it first navigated to Google maps but clicking on 'get directions' opened Apple maps. This was traced to pzpega_control_actions_getDirections. When using the getMapURL function the value being assigned for iosVersion dictates the behavior: If the iosVersion is greater than 8 it opens Google maps, else Apple maps. However, an error caused the value to be sent as string instead of integer, causing the iosVersion check to fail. This has been corrected.

SR-D83630 · Issue 546142

IsQuestionHidden property added to skip validating hidden questions

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

After configuring a simple question which had a validation rule defined on it and a display 'when' rule configured to show or hide it based on another question condition validation was still being fired on the hidden question and it was not possible to proceed. This has been resolved by adding code to skip validations for a question if it is hidden, based on the pzIsQuestionHidden property.

SR-D86079 · Issue 548108

Label truncation added for pinned item title

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

While pinning a Space, document, or URL, the length of the item title was causing validation issues if it exceeded 64 characters. This has been resolved by modifying the pzGetPins activity to truncate pyLabel to 64 characters using the truncateLongText function.

SR-D73237 · Issue 539124

Pagination updated to resolve repeating Pulse notes

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.3

After adding a case and entering 15 Pulse notes, scrolling down resulted in the notes being duplicated. Investigation traced this to entering more than 10 posts in a single interaction on a previously empty case when "Progressive pagination" was enabled for the repeating dynamic layout. On Private Edit, if the pagination was changed to "NONE" then the issue was resolved. Pagination depends on the pzPagingStartDateTime property, which is set on D_pzFeedParams, but since there were no results in this scenario this property was not being set. To resolve this, an update has been made so that pzPagingStartDateTime will be set if it is empty.
