Resolved Issues
This release also includes the following corrections or modifications:
GAX now provides an error message if you upload an audio resource and the operation fails. Previously in this scenario, GAX provided an error message, but the message content could have been blank. (GAX-6674)
GAX now properly handles a negative value for the inactivity_timeout configuration option. If you provide a negative value for inactivity_timeout, the option is disabled. (GAX-6637)
SPD files (solution definitions) that use the selectMultiple input type can now use the default attribute to select multiple items for input selection by default. (GAX-6549)
The Description field is no longer visible in the Parameter Groups list. (GAX-6327)
GAX now properly displays certain letters (for example, g and q) in the user interface. Previously, the bottom of these letters might have been cut off in some dialog boxes. (GAX-6068)
Internet Explorer users are no longer logged out of GAX after they press Enter in the text input fields of certain plug-ins. (GAX-5777)
Hosts are now listed alphabetically in the Software Installation Wizard when users are deploying installation packages (IPs). (GAX-5757)
GAX now allows users to set blank (empty) passwords. (GAX-5708)
The following improvements have been made to Solution Deployment:
- IP Deployment Wizard—A new check box, Configure client side port functionality, is available in the Application Parameters section. When this check box is selected, the wizard ignores the following silent.ini parameters during the deployment process: transport-port and transport-address.
- SPD Authoring—A new list name, silentInstallRemove, is available for the Operation System Manipulation Element <os:installPackage>. Parameters that are set in this list are removed from the silent.ini file used for installation.
(GAX-5608)
GAX now correctly recognizes Host object names regardless of case. Previously, GAX might fail to recognize a Host object if you entered an object name in upper-case letters and the actual object name was in lower-case letters, or vice-versa. (GAX-5534)
CSV files downloaded from GAX now properly display content. Previously, some CSV files that were downloaded from GAX were empty. (GAX-5514)
The times shown in the Deployed Solutions window are now correctly adjusted for the time zone that is selected in the Preferences menu. (GAX-5422)
When configuring an object in GAX, the Port ID is automatically added by GAX. Because the Port ID is checked only when the applications are started, even if a backup Configuration Server and a primary Configuration Server are configured with the same port on the same host, both server objects can still be saved. Previously in this scenario, the two objects required a port already defined in which the Port ID field had a value of default. (GAX-5169, GAX-5171)
You can now view long names and descriptions for dashboards in a ToolTip. Previously, long names and descriptions for dashboards were not viewable in certain windows if there was limited display space. (GAX-5050)
