Issues resolved for version 8.02 SP4
- 61845 and 61870. Pressing <Shift>+<Enter> creates line breaks in Firefox 3.6 and higher.
- 64151. The Multiple DMS Documents feature works with Office 2003/2007 using the Internet Explorer 9 browser.
- 66946. Clicking the Help button on the Ektron Search Data Configuration dialog no longer displays an error.
- 67011. If you created a taxonomy a content-level categorization system that uses one-to-many relationships (such as Ronald Reagan is to Actor, Governor, and President) to create a scalable organization of content. A taxonomy lets your site visitors navigate content independent of the folder structure. and added properties (such as image URL and link), they were not exported with the XLIFF. As a result, the properties were not imported with taxonomy in the new language.
- 67025. Server names were truncated beyond 15 characters in XML files and database tables. This could cause the following error when deleting a taxonomy:
Error occured while executing cms_deletetaxonomy: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'server_id', table 'EktronIQHKGDev.dbo.perform_action'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The server name stored in the AssetServerTable is truncated.
This occurred because a machine’s name is limited to 15 characters when in a domain, but a machine name in a workgroup can be much longer. To fix this, Ektron now usesSystem.Net.Dns.GetHostName()
instead ofEnvironment.MachineName
everywhere. - 67263. If a content item containing an unordered list was placed on a PageBuilder page via a Content widget a mini-application that you place on a Web page using PageBuilder; a widget provides either specific functionality (calculators, search, social bars, and so on) or areas into which you can add content (content blocks, list summaries, collections, and so on)., the resulting .txt file for search (under the asset folder) was missing spaces. As a result, a search for those words would fail.
- 67303. Fixed a problem with entering French aliased URLs into a menu. For example, an alias is
/casma/Strategies/Strategy_Content/Equity_Strategies/Stratégie_de_titres_américains_à_dividendes_croissants.aspx.
If you add this item to a menu, the URL is saved in Ektron is:
casma/Strategies/Strategy_Content/Equity_Strategies/Stratégie_de_titres_américains_à_dividendes_croissants.aspx.
If you then used an XSLT to transform XML, you got an Invalid characters in URL error. - 67472. When using Firefox 10 and eWebEdit400, the <Enter> key did not move down to the next line.
- 67720. Previously, when performing a sync, if there was a large number of files in the asset/library folders or the assetlibrary, so many tmp files were created on the staging server that eSync would error out with "The item exists" errors.
- 68280. Previously, if you
- Created a download sync profile.
- Added a new template on a remote server.
- Ran a download sync.
- The template was synched on local machine.
- Deleted the template from the remote server.
- Ran another sync.
- The template was not deleted from the local server.
- 68291. Previously, if you were working on Japanese content, and added a manual alias, for example: "特定商取引法に基づく表記/", then viewed the Alias tab, the alias showed correctly. But if you edited the content and changed any part of the alias (for example "特定商取引法に基づく表記.aspx) then published, the alias appeared as "/????????????.aspx.
