INC-140279 · Issue 597756

JMX logging added to upgrade diagnostics

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4

In order to improve diagnostic information, infoForced loggers have been added for debugging upgrade issues related to JMX calls to enable and disable rules creation.

INC-144555 · Issue 603071

Changelog cleanup added for de-optimized properties

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4

Unwanted optimization was automatically added to properties for the Application-Work-Casetype class created using the wizard in the App Studio. Attempts to remove the optimization did not work: the property advance tab was showing the optimized classes details even after deleting and recreating the property. When a property is optimized the system adds entries to pr_changelog for the list of classes it has optimized. When the property was deleted, the pr_changelog was not cleared. This was a missed usecase, and has been resolved by overriding the Cleanup activity at Rule-Obj-Property class to delete the pr_changelog entry associated with that if it is present.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4

In order to improve diagnostics, debug loggers have been added to ScalarPropertiesWriter.java to print column name in the logs while creating map between column names and their values from clipboard page.

Initialized entryName for light weight inventory instance

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4

When running deployment on a new pipeline created for the next minor version, once the deployment process got to the point of showing aged updates, the “view aged updates” came back as blank screen. Viewing the logs showed the aged update elements come back but were missing the pyName associated with them. Investigation showed that the system did not have support for setting the mEntryName for LightweightInventoryInstance objects. This has been resolved by adding a junit to ensure that getEntryName() doesn't return as null and should be equal to pzInsKey.

Hot Fix Manager updated to use installation order for schema import

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4

Schema changes were not being imported during the hot fix manager DL import process. Investigation showed this was due to hotfixes in the DL being iterated over from newest to oldest, causing older hotfixes to replace the value added to a map by the newer. To resolve this, the system has been updated to use hotfix install order, which considers selected and dependent hotfixes, rather than ordering newest to oldest. This ensures that newer table representations will override older rather than the other way around.

SR-D22505 · Issue 493366

Circumstancing template and definitions assembly modified to avoid calling RD

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

After deploying a new rollout, errors such as "Only authenticated client may start this activity: RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY RULE-OBJ-REPORT-DEFINITION" and "You lack access required to execute RULE-OBJ-ACTIVITY RULE-OBJ-REPORT-DEFINITION" appeared. Investigation showed that during an unauthenticated session, executing Report Definitions or accessing database (with securityCheck enabled) are not allowed. When someone wants to use circumstanced rules during the custom authentication process, and if the circumstancing rules are not assembled yet, then assembly of the circumstanced rules triggers the assembly of circumstance template and definitions. During this process the system used Report definition, but since execution of RD is not allowed without authentication the assembly was failing. This has been resolved with two changes: the MergeDefintions activity which is invoked during assembly of CircumstanceTemplate : database.open() has replaced the pxRetrieverReportData activity (which invokes RD to fetch circumstances definitions), and the GetAllDefinitionRows activity which is invoked from MergeDefinitions : database.open has replaced Obj-open in step 3.

SR-D24900 · Issue 503875

Security update for RequestMap error logging

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

In HttpAPI, the RequestMap contains Cookie information. In error conditions, this map gets logged. An update has been made to ensure that the Cookie value is not logged if there is an error.

Uploaded attachments will receive a unique name to prevent overwriting

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

An issue with an incorrect file being attached to a work object was traced to overlapping processes. When files are uploaded, they are first saved to common HDD directory and then read into memory and deleted from the HDD area. Files will overwrite other file carrying the same name, which is a problem if the first file is not completely uploaded and is waiting in the common directory and some other file with the same name is uploaded on top of it. To resolve this, an update has been made to ensure file names are appended with a unique identifier to distinguish between files carrying the same names and keep them from overwriting each other.

SR-D28083 · Issue 512937

DeleteOrphanStaticContent CacheConfigID populated on node startup

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

The pzDeleteOrphanStaticContent activity which triggers to clear cache was unable to clear the files in the static content folder and in the database when the files were more than one week old. In order to correctly cleanup old static content, pzAsmCacheConfigID must be populated in py_sys_statusnodes. However, when SystemNodesDAO was introduced to populate pr_sys_statusnodes, pzAsmCacheConfigID was not populated. To resolve this, pzAsmCacheConfigID is now populated on node startup when node information is added to pr_sys_statusnodes.

SR-D28184 · Issue 497168

Verbose debug logging removed from LockUtils

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4

Verbose debug logging that had been added to the "LockUtils" class to print when the lock was acquired or released and include the associated stacktrace has now been removed as it interfered with diagnosing locking issues when threads were getting blocked.
