Pagination added to MT Requestor Pools list
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
The Admin Studio requestor pools list did not have pagination and always displayed only one page irrespective of the numbers of items, but only on a specific node. This was traced to the node in question having multiple tenants: the normal use case is that there are not very many Requestor Pools, and choosing a "Specific node" for Requestor Pools usually returns fewer than 10 results. However, on an MT system there could be substantially more Requestor Pools, and pagination has been added to pzRequestorPoolsDetailsGrid to handle this use case.

Added check for test case creation when Cross-site scripting security enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Test case creation was failing. Investigation showed that when the "Cross-Site Request Forgery" security setting was enabled, the CSRF token and Browser fingerprint were not included in AJAX calls, and the Ruleinskey was not getting passed. This has been resolved by adding a check to evaluate whether security measures are included or not when making a server call from AJAX, and including the tokens required when appropriate.

Access Deny working as expected for Offers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
It was possible to Save-As an offer in PegaMKT-Work-Offer after encountering an access deny rule. The record was not created in Dev Studio, however, and an expected denial of access was not registered at runtime. This was due to Access deny rules not being considered as a part of validation, and has been resolved by adding the necessary permission validation to the new harness that will produce the error message informing the user that they are missing a permission. Additional work has also been done to pass the 'pzKeepPageMessages' parameter as true so that page level error messages are correctly displayed.

Paging method updated for Select All in Broken Queue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
After clicking the 'Select All' box in Broken Queue In Admin Studio, scrolling up and down rapidly caused the checkboxes to be unselected. This was traced to the use of progressing paging in this scenario, and has been resolved by removing progressive paging and replacing it with the out of the box '1 of X' paging method.

REST parameters updated for SauceLabs compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
After configuring a call to SauceLabs testing through Deployment manager, the REST call was timing out. Investigation traced the issue to SauceLabs changing its parameter name from "browser" to "browsername", and the Pega parameter names have now been updated to reflect that change.

Pega Org Structure Tools added
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
An enhancement has been made available on Pega Marketplace to simplify working with large organizational structures with additional support for having more than 3,333 organizations. This allows choosing an Org, Div and Unit in the Operator ID and Application ruleforms using auto-completes rather than a tree, and can now handle up to 10,000 Organizations, 10,000 Divisions per organization, and 10,000 Units per Division. Installations exceeding those numbers will still be able to enter the name without validation problems, and a link to the Organization Chart landing page will be available for browsing that data in a tree.

Branch Preference now considered for TestCase rule
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Setting branch preference from top right worked for all rule types and new rule dialog rightly set the branch, but when attempting to use this configuration for a test case, it only displayed the first branch in the app and did not follow the branch preference. This was due to the system using a separate save modal dialog for test case creation which did not consider this use, and has been resolved by implementing the branch preferences use case to show the direct preferred branch if present.

IOException handling improved to resolve broken pipe errors
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Frequent "connection reset by peers" exceptions were being generated and broken-pipe exceptions were seen in the logs. Investigation traced the issue to unhanded IOExceptions on the server side that were a result of the client application not always closing the TCP connection gracefully. To resolve this, error handling for IOExceptions has been improved.

Directory traversal blocked in zip import
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
One of the files contained in a zip archive was not deleted from the system after zip import. This was due to the file being created by a third-party archive that included of a directory traversal character that caused it to be inflated outside of the temp directory. To resolve this, a check has been added to that a file with directory traversal characters in its name will not be inflated.

JDBC URL handling added for Oracle over TCPS
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
While attempting to upgrade an environment over TCPS, the generateDDL.sh script was failing. The same environment ran without issue on Tomcat with the same URL. Investigation showed the JDBC url was not correctly generated while running the upgrade: in a standard scenario, there will be no spaces in the JDBC URL specified. However, because Oracle can send spaces as part of JDBC URL and cause this issue, an update has been made which will quote the JDBC URL argument for the ant target in setupDDL.xml.
