Media Control Platform (MCP) v8.5.178.xx does not reuse the SIP request’s TCP connection when responding to the request. Subsequently, MCP tries to initiate a new TCP connection to the FQDN or IP (and port) present in the VIA header of the request.
As a result, MCP might fail to send a SIP response to the request if the remote doesn't accept a new TCP connection. For example, the remote is a F5 load balancer or Genesys Composer.
Workaround: If you have installed MCP v8.5.178.xx, Genesys recommends you uninstall this version and install/upgrade to MCP v8.5.181.78 or a later version.

When the VXML application goes in a loop executing subdialog, the MCP's NGI does not end the VXML application flow on the BYE response from the caller.

By default, if the RTCP line is not specified in the SDP offer, MCP assigns the value rtp port +1 to the RTCP port. When the RTCP port is explicitly offered in the SDP message, then the MCP, under very rare conditions, can terminate. To avoid it, just remove the RTCP line from the SDP offer.
Workaround: Remove the RTCP line from the offered SDP.

If the TTS server does not keep the initial transport protocol (that is, does not change from UDP to TCP) within the same session, then MCP might keep using the original transport mode, causing unexpected behavior from the TTS server.
Workaround: Make sure that the TTS server does not change transport protocols during a session.

Media Control Platform does not upload the unencrypted recorded files (.wav format) to the newly created S3 buckets when the option msml.record.amazonsignedpayload is set to true and when there is a redirection in the POST or PUT requests.
Workaround: Set the options msml.record.updateheader and msml.record.userecordcachedir to true.

Media Control Platform might terminate unexpectedly when the Service Quality Analysis (SQA) is enabled, however this is a rare scenario.
| ID: GVP-23685 | Found In: 8.5.150.63 | Fixed In: |
In a specific scenario, Media Control Platform (MCP) might rarely generate a memory fragmentation. A memory fragmentation is generated when all of the following conditions are met:
- MCP must perform a very high rate of fetches using TLS mutual authentication.
- The fetched content must not be cached.
- The TCP connections used to fetch the content are not reused, or purely reused, meaning, that for every fetch or couple of fetches a new TLS mutual authentication needs to be performed.
This issue will not be fixed.
| ID: GVP-23653 | Found In: 8.5.176.05 | Fixed In: |
When the option msml.record.userecordcachedir is set to false (the default value), the value set in the option msml.record.updateheader is not effective.
Although this scenario is reported as an issue, this will not be fixed since it allows Media Control Platform to update the file headers appropriately.

| ID: GVP-22046 | Found In: Unspecified | Fixed In: 8.5.1 |
Media Control Platform cannot limit the packet size when packetization-mode is set to zero (0), due to a limitation in the library used by MCP for H264 encoding.
This limitation causes issues when using MCP to play video on a Polycom phone using the H264 codec.

You must follow these steps to enable inline grammar access by URL:
Windows IIS Environment
1. Verify that IIS is installed and started, and that MCP is installed.
2. Create and add the directory inlinetmp under C:\Program Files\Common Files\GCTI\www\gvp\mcp\<MCP_application>\grammar\.
The final two steps are automatically performed by the MCP installation in a Windows 32-bit environment:
3. Add the application mcp in IIS, which points to C:\Program Files\Common Files\GCTI\www\gvp\mcp.
4. Enable Directory Browsing and add the MIME type application/octet-stream for the extension * to the application mcp in IIS.
Linux Environment
1. Verify that MCP is installed.
2. Create the virtual directory /var/www/gvp/mcp/ by adding these lines of code to the file /etc/http/conf/httpd.conf:
<Directory "/var/www/gvp/mcp/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "now plus 5 minutes"
</Directory>
3. Enable the httpd service
(run chkconfig and specify level 345 httpd on)
4. Start the httpd service
(run start in the directory /etc/init.d/httpd)
5. Add the directory inlinetmp, and grant read and access permission to all files and directories beneath /var/www/gvp/mcp/<MCP_application>/grammar/
