Resolved Issues

This release contains the following resolved issues:


During upgrade, switchover between Configuration Servers 8.1.3 and 8.5.1 now occurs as expected when the Configuration Database contains a large amount of history records and the backup Configuration Server 8.5.1 loses and then restores its connection to the primary Configuration Server 8.1.3. Previously in this scenario, the switchover sometimes failed. (MFWK-19892)


Configuration Server can now be configured to skip a full validation of changes in the Annex of a configuration object, using the new option skip-annex-validation. (MFWK-19860)


When using LDAP external authentication, clients that cannot be authenticated now terminate with an error message if LDAP is not configured correctly. Previously in this scenario, the unauthenticated clients just stopped responding. (MFWK-19601)


When using LDAP external authentication, an External ID is not required for a Person object to bypass external authentication when enforced at the tenant level. Setting authentication type as internal in the Person object will authenticate the user internally. Previously, configuring External ID in this case caused LDAP to stop functioning. (MFWK-19343)


The Configuration Database multi-language initialization script can now be executed successfully on the MS SQL server with collation set to the following:

Latin1_General_100_CI_AS_KS_WS_SC

(MFWK-19331)


Configuration Server Proxy now reconnects to the master Configuration Server port that it was connected to before the connection was lost. Previously, when connected to a master server that has several listening ports, the proxy server was attempting to reconnect to any of those configured ports in a random order. (MFWK-17094)
