Optimizing helper class enhanced to handle external databases
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Running a BIX extract that included a manifest for a target database was resulting in a null pointer exception for the manifest extraction. Attempting to generate the DDL for the manifest table also failed. This was traced to an issue with the helper class using a hardcoded default database for forming the queries, causing it to ignore the database config/DADN/prconfig for the Oracle database and form a query using the PegaRules' database credentials. This only occurred when trying to do external database operations on a different database platform; Oracle PegaRules worked as expected with an Oracle external database and Postgres Pegarules worked with a Postgres external database, but mixing Postgres PegaRules and an Oracle external database would result in the null pointer exception. To resolve this, the helper class has been enhanced to work with external databases by passing the database name as a parameter so it will properly calculate the query based on the type of target. An error in the name of the class has also been corrected, and is now available as PerformanceHelper rather than the previous "PerformaneHelper".

Date field correctly extracted for IMAP inbound email
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
fter upgrade, email-sourced cases were not being created correctly. Tracer showed the date field was blank, causing an error which was traced to the getReceivedDate being returned as null for the JavaMail AP even though the IMAP protocol was being used. This was an unintended side effect of work done to handle a throttling exception in the IMAP inbound email flow, and has been resolved by updating the system so that if the getReceivedDate is null, the date will be extracted from the mail header while processing dates in EmailMessageInfo class.

Enhancement added for attachment size handling with Kafka
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Attempting to send an email attachment larger than 2 MB resulted in the error "Caused by: org.apache.kafka.common.errors.RecordTooLargeException: The message is 8101592 bytes when serialized which is larger than the maximum request size you have configured with the max.request.size configuration." This has been resolved by updating the Stream SPI size to 2.0.5-14 to support custom producer configurations. The settings can be passed as environment parameters, for example 'Dstream.producer.max.request.size=500990'.

Email Listener updated to handle double quotes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
The From field in Requestdata was blank for emails that had a FROM address that contained double quotes, causing them to not be read by the email listener. This has been resolved by modifying the regex pattern to accept double quotes, square brackets, and any ASCII characters between quotes.

Added check for .eml /.msg extension

REST connector creation errors resolved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
Attempting to create REST Connectors via the dev studio wizard using live endpoint invocation as "Add a REST response" was failing with a java.util.LinkedList error. This had a workaround of either running the REST wizard with file upload samples or configuring them directly on the rule form. In addition, REST Connectors were not executing if both the DEBUG level logging was turned on and the request had no headers, which had a workaround of using any other logging level (INFO, ERROR). These issues have been resolved by updating the system such that pyResponseHeaders are populated appropriately, and if there are no headers in the request, the system will not try to remove the trailing comma that would have been introduced in the oLog message.

File Listener creates pegaAPI reference for indirect reference
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
When using a constant for the source location of a file, the listener had no problems starting but a severe guardrail warning appeared indicating "Source location should use D_pxGetApplicationSettingValue instead of a constant value". When the source location was changed to point to a data page as suggested, the file listener would not start. This was traced to a null pointer exception caused by the listener running on a thread that did have a reference to publicAPI as required to get the indirect reference to the property, and has been resolved by adding code to create pegaAPI (if not present) when an indirect reference is present.

Email Listener auto-reply evaluation updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade, messages were being read but not getting processed for a specific Email listener (RCEmailListerner). The error "Email flagged as an autoreply email and will not be processed" appeared in the logs. Previously, an email was not considered to be an auto-reply only when the 'auto-submitted' header didn't exist or existed with value 'no'. This caused issues with auto-forward or auto-redirect emails where 'auto-submitted:auto-generated' could be in the header. Due to this, email was marked as auto-reply and email listener stopped processing it. To resolve this, the system has been modified to mark the message as auto-reply if it finds 'auto-submitted: auto-replied' in the header, but not 'auto-submitted:auto-generated'.
