================================================================================
Closed Issues in 7.1.0_hotfix01 (This Release)

Admin Interface
GS-17776
The Edit User page has an empty value as the first entry for security roles when having more than one entry.

GS-17774
In the Admin UI, the action menu (three dots) is not visible when you scroll the page.

GS-17735
In the Engine Configuration > Proxy Server section, the Password field is not masked.


Communication and Network
GS-17655
When Direct Data transfer is disabled and the Invocation Per message is set to greater than 1, tasks might appear to be missing on the Broker.

To fix this issue, go to the configuration: Admin > Manager Configuration > Hotfixes > GS-17655 and set it to True.


Configuration and Repository
GS-17760
During silent installation, there is an issue when creating an admin user if the passwordEncryption property is set to true.


Drivers-All
GS-17818
When the Driver receives "Retry-after" http header, it keeps the existing http context and re-sends the http request after waiting for a short period of time (less than 1 second). This slows down the process.


Engine
GS-17775
The Socket timeout value is wrongly printed as 'original value * 1000'.

GS-17356
Some error messages in the Broker are being shown as Warning messages instead of Finer messages in the logs.

GS-17764
By default, Proxy uses HTTP scheme for Resource Synchronization and Data transfer.

Support has been added to use Proxy with HTTPS scheme for SSL server for Resource Synchronization and Data transfer.

Field added to Engine Configuration: Proxy Server > Proxy Scheme - HTTP and HTTPS.

For HTTP scheme FORWARD Proxy is used and for the HTTPS scheme REVERSE Proxy is used.

For HTTP scheme BASIC and DIGEST Authentication is supported, and for HTTPS scheme BASIC Authentication is supported.

For non-SSL servers it is expected that HTTP scheme is used for the Proxy, similarly, for SSL servers HTTPS scheme is used for the Proxy.

Volatile config files not getting overwritten is the default functionality of the installer.
For GridServer already installed, need to update the config file ( 'Config.xml.unix'/'Config.xml.win32' ) manually under DS_DATA\conf folder for PROXY_SERVER section.


Engine Daemon
GS-17739
The Proxy password value appears in plain text in the Engine logs and therefore users are able to see the password value.

GS-17782
64-bit Engine fails because the JRE update fails for some reason. This causes the 64-bit Engine to restart as a 32-bit Engine.


GUI
GS-17892
When searching logs through Daemon Admin > Specific Daemon > Search Logs, an extra hyphen ( - ) at the end of the Engine Daemon ID is used in the search string. This resulted in an incomplete list of logs.
Now, the logs are searched based on the Engine Daemon ID irrespective of the hyphen.


Java Specific
GS-17805
Grid library has been added to run the Engine on Oracle Java 1.8.0.341 for Windows and Linux.

GS-17806
Engine JRE has been updated to Oracle Java 11.0.16 for Win64 and Linux64 and Oracle Java 1.8.0.341 for Win32 and Linux32.

GS-17701
Third-party libraries are updated to the most recent available or compatible versions.


Manager
GS-17352
The JSP cache is deleted even though the Manager is running. This issue has been fixed. However, for Windows users not using the default port, the following section must be updated with the corresponding port number in the server.bat file:

netstat -na | find "LISTENING" | find /C /I ":8080" > "%DS_DATA_DIR%\tomcatRunningCount.txt"

GS-17645
When changing a non-SSL server to an SSL server, the Manager (Broker) ID changes when re-configuring the server if DSConfigureOnStartup is set to true.

GS-16987
You can now add Engines to the Grid even when the Primary Director is down.

To enable the installation of Linux Engine on the Secondary Director, add the parameter -d as follows:

-s primarydirector:port -d secondarydirector:port

GS-17814
When the Event Stream feature is disabled, the Event Stream plug-in does not collect the Event data causing more memory to be utilized.


Server
GS-17777
The Director monitor reports incorrectly after the name of a Broker has been changed.

GS-17732
Some properties in the install.silent file are not consistent with the previous version of GridServer.

The following properties have been updated in the install.silent file to maintain consistency with the previous version of GridServer:

adminusername -> adminUsername
adminpassword -> adminPassword
dbusername -> dbUsername
dbpassword -> dbPassword
dbreportusername -> dbReportUsername
dbreportpassword -> dbReportPassword
reportingDbUrlFormat -> reportingDbURLFormat
dbreportDriver -> dbReportDriver
passwordencryption -> passwordEncryption


Tomcat
GS-17804
Apache Tomcat has been updated to 9.0.65.

GS-17882
When you use GridServer as a Windows service, all GridServer logs are written in the Catalina log files.
