Description

Description:
FX01922 is a cumulative hotfix and includes the following fixes:

01. MFCC-912 Resolves a problem when initiating a directory receive from a Platform Server to Internet Server and the virtual alias in the transfer definition has multiple levels.  For example, the transfer failed if the virtual alias was "dir/subdir".

02. MFCC-892 Resolves a problem where alerts were not being processed when multiple wildcards were defined in the alert trigger criteria.  The problem was introduced in FX01902 which addressed an issue with special characters in the alert trigger criteria.  To use multiple wildcards the user must enter the data in this format:
<.*abc.*>.  When data is entered between brackets < and >, the data is treated as a JAVA regex (regular Expression).  Note that the rules for JAVA regex are different from standard UNIX regex.  
In  this example an alert will be triggered if the string "abc" appears anywhere in the field.
We will perform a Java regex compare on the data inside <>.  This applies to the following fields:
                : Platform server Node Name
                : Client File Name
                : Server File name
                : Transfer User Id
                : Process name
                : Transfer Description
If the data is not enclosed within <>, Java regex checking will not be performed; the standard checking will be performed.

03. MFCC-793 Added additional modes of operation to the AS2 Server
AS2 will have three modes of operation:
       1. Immediate Acknowledgement – default.
       2. Deferred Acknowledgement (if Acknowledgement is set to “deferred”) – acknowledge after all data is received
       3. Write data to temp directory (if AS2TempDirectory is defined) – Note: all files in the temp directory are removed at transfer termination.
Added two new AS2 parameters that can be specified in the MFT web.xml:
       <!-- If specified, write AS2 data to this directory before processing the data. The directory must exist beforehand. -->
        &ltcontext-param>
                &ltparam-name&gtAS2TempDirectory</param-name>
                &ltparam-value></param-value>
        </context-param>
       <!-- Defines the Acknowledgement: If value is deferred, acknowledge only after processing all data; otherwise, acknowledge after receiving the data -->
        &ltcontext-param>
                &ltparam-name&gtAS2Acknowledgement</param-name>
                &ltparam-value></param-value>
        </context-param>

04. MFCC-792 Resolves an SFTP issue when a key exchange is initiated.  There was a small window where it may have been possible for the client to send a message that was not allowed during key exchange. The following exceptions may result:
    Exception: com.maverick.ssh.SshException: Protocol error: expected packet type 30, got 94 [Unknown cause]
    Exception: com.maverick.sftp.SftpStatusException: Invalid file handle.: The handle is not valid!

The following fixes are included from FX01921:

01. MFCC-773 Resolves a problem where user rights may be incorrectly removed when doing an LDAP sync.
02. MFCC-755 Resolves a duplicate virtual alias exception when specifying the virtual alias for an UpdateTransfer action using the admin command line or the MFT API.

The following fixes are included from FX01917:

01. MFCC-747 Changes the following pages to resolve inconsistencies in the “Data Type” and Delimiter” fields

                : Add/Execute Platform Transfer
02. MFCC-739 Resolves error 'Failed to create ssh server' when restarting the SSH Server after shutting it down.
03. MFCC-738 Resolves a problem where updating the JMS configuration on the "Configure JMS Service" page corrupts the existing JMS password and causes a JMS connection error.
04. MFCC-732 Resolves a problem where the Collection Service or remote polling to an MFT PS for z/OS can fail with invalid user or password error.
05. MFCC-731 Resolves a problem when communicating to a Platform Server and an  error is detected by the Platform Server.  The error was incorrectly  reported as "Proxy returned: Network Error[protocol violation - received gds command 0x0]".  The error is now reported as a remote error and the error message was changed to better describe the cause of a problem.

The following fixes are included from FX01908:

01. MFCC-692 Changed LDAP Sync “fatal error” message to make it more accurate.  Added additional messages when an error occurs during an LDAP Sync.

04. MFCC-689 Resolves an "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException" when displaying a Platform Server audit record that contains a null (0x00) in a string.  This error was caused by an invalid ASCII character returned from the Platform Server when Audit records were collected.

11. MFCC-659 Resolves a problem when clicking on the "Get Alias Name" button from the "Request Internet Server Transfer" activity configuration tab in the Business Works Designer. The Virtual Aliases were not returned for users when the transfer was authorized for a group and the user was defined in a group.
12. MFCC-652 Resolves the error "You are not licensed to view this page" when attempting to view Database Reports.
13. MFCC-603 Resolves a problem with the FTP Server when the “Bind Adapter IP Address” is defined but the “External IP Address” is not defined.  Code was changed to return the “Bind Adapter IP Address” for  Passive mode FTP/FTPS when “External IP Address” is not defined.

The following fixes are included from FX01905:

01. MFCC-650 Resolves a "java.lang.NullPointerException” when trying to add Responder Profile to MFT Platform Server when the “Effective Password” is not defined.

The following fixes are included from FX01892:

01. MFCC-509 The JAVA Transfer API was updated to allow the client to pass UserData and ProcessName to the Server.  Set the value *CHANGE in the transfer definition Process Name and User Data fields to pass the ProcessName and/or UserData to a transfer definition using the API. Note: The value is case sensitive and must be in all uppercase.  If *CHANGE is specified and the API does not override the Process Name or User Data, or if the transfer is initiated by a client other than the JAVA Transfer API, the Process Name and User Data will be a null string.
02. MFCC-511 Added tokens for UserData and ProcessName.
    Known Issue: When clicking on the ProcessName or UserData token from the File Token List to add it to the Server File Name field, it will incorrectly return #(FR##) to the field. To use these new tokens manually type the tokens in the field as #(ProcessName) and #(UserData).

The definition of the new call is as follows:  FileInfo[] getAllTransferDefinitionsForUser(String sessionID) throws RemoteException
13. MFCC-563 Resolved a problem with the Desktop Client where OnDemand transfers failed after applying hotfix FX01885.

Changed the return code to distinguish between "No Files Available" and errors attempting to get a file list.
20. MFCC-489 Resolved a problem that occurred when an SSH client requested a restart of a transfer when checkpoint restart was turned off.  The restart request will now be rejected.
