Added check for naming conflicts when upgrading Oracle
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
When attempting to upgrade a single schema on Oracle database, running the generateddl script failed with a NullPointerException. This was caused by database tables which had a column name called 'SYS_ID' as part of the primary key. Since Oracle uses system-generated names beginning with "SYS_" for implicitly generated schema objects and subobjects, Oracle discourages the use of this prefix in the names explicitly provided to the schema objects and subobjects in order to avoid possible conflicts in name resolution. To resolve this, a tester has been added to the system to check for this naming use and issue a warning.

Documentation added on adding Tomcat-on-Oracle Rules resource
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
The Tomcat-on-Oracle installation guides for Pega ML7 and ML8 did not contain instructions for adding a for jdbc/AdminPegaRULES. As such if the installer prepared a two-user (Base + Admin) setup in the database and allocated the Base user to jdbc/PegaRULES, the Pega platform was unable to run DDL to create new tables for new work types and new data types, as the installer has not configured the additional datasource to use the Admin user. The documentation has been updated to add the necessary step between Steps 1 and 2 of the "Create a JDBC Datasource" chapter (page 41 from the ML7 installation guide).

Documentation updated to reflect change to read-only getProperty pages
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
In recent versions of the system, getProperty() was modified to support the creation of a property on a read-only page. However, even though the property has been created, it is not possible to set its value. This was not clearly indicated in the documentation, and read-only exceptions were being generated when putString() or setValue() attempted to give a value for the property on a read-only page. The documentation has been updated to clarify this use case.

JDBC connection URL documentation updated for JBOSS installation
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
An error was found in the JBOSS installation document: the JDBC connection URL defined inside the standalone-full.xml should not have forward slash (/) before the database name, i.e. the format below is incorrect: jdbc:oracle:thin:@//localhost:1521/dbName Instead, the forward slash before data name should be changed to a colon (:), for example: jdbc:oracle:thin:@//localhost:1521:dbName This documentation issue has been resolved by adding a section clarifying the necessary connection information and the method for creating a connection string, along with updating all connection-url steps to either include this information or a pointer to the new section.

Namecase check added to DB2/ZOS split schema installation
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
An omission in the documentation for the installation wizard guiding the creation of a split schema on DB2/ZOS failed to specify that the database username on the UI screen or in the setupDatabase.properties file as well as the properties in the DB2SiteDependentProperties file are required to be in all upper case. As a result, some installations experienced a runtime exception and an unexpected process termination due to name mismatch. The documentation has been updated. and a check has been added which will take a supplied mixed/lower-case user name and uppercase the value used to set the currentSQLID parameter.

Removed unexpected 'History-' DB instances
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
Due to an error, 61 additional Data-Admin-DB-Table instances that should not have been part of the media were packaged in the software distribution. The impact was low as all started with 'History-' and contained the name 'Engineering', but their presence and lack of matching associated Class Definitions caused them to be reported on the Database Landing page as "Invalid Class Mappings". We apologize for this confusion.

Added prevention for inappropriate Google Chrome autofill
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
When login userid and password were stored in the Google Chrome browse and autofill was enabled, Google Chrome was using those values to populate the RuleSet rule form's input field (hidden on UI on Versions tab) and password field (on the Security tab). Those invalid values caused a save failure. To fix the issue, the system will pre-populate the hidden input field so that Google Chrome does not auto fill this field on the client side.

Fixed Edit in Excel with load balancing enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
Edit in Excel was not working for decision tables if a load balancing was enabled. This was traced to the load balancer port number being added to the RequestHomeURL, causing a malformed strURL for opening the decision table in Excel. A check has been added to evaluate whether the strURL starts with a proper protocol and host instead of checking for RequestHomeURL.
