Bugfix SUP-16323 Link to this entry

Editor User Interface: When using the advanced search, the search was not restricted to the current folder but always searched the whole node.
This has been fixed so that the search will be restricted to the current folder and all subfolders.


Bugfix SUP-16344 Link to this entry

Due to an incorrect permission check, removing a previously set “publish at“ or “offline at” time did not always work for
users with permissions restricted to certain channels/nodes. The permission check has been fixed.

If removing a “publish at“ or “offline at” time was denied due to insufficient permissions, the request still succeeded and no
appropriate message was shown to the user. This has been fixed.


Bugfix SUP-16356 Link to this entry

Moving a page into another node will no longer be possible, if the page has variants in languages,
which are not activated in the target node. The only exception is when moving a page with a single language
into a node, that does not have languages at all (in this case, the page will also have no language) or when
moving a page without a language into a node with languages (the page will get the first assigned language
of the target node).
If a page is copied into another node, only the language variants with languages, which are activated in the
target node, will be copied. If no language variant of the page is activated in the target node, the selected
language variant will be copied and will get the first assigned language of the target node.

Bugfix SUP-16362 Link to this entry

Core: Calculation of the memory consumption of cached Strings has been improved to better reflect the real memory consumption. Before this fix, the calculated memory consumption could be too small resulting in the cache using much more memory than the configured maximum size.


Bugfix SUP-16339 Link to this entry

Core: The process of updating from Mesh SQL < 2.x with a database containing many records in table mesh_nodefieldcontainer has been optimized to run much faster and to not consume a large amount of Java heap space.

Bugfix SUP-16029 Link to this entry

Scheduling tasks with intervals behaved differently than the old scheduler:
While the old scheduler always calculated the intervals from the start time, the new scheduler
calculated from the last execution. This is unexpected, because when for example a task should be executed (automatically) once a day at 3 AM,
a manual execution of the task would break the start time (next automatic execution would be one day after the last manual exection, not necessarily at 3 AM the following day).
The behaviour of the scheduler has now been changed to the behaviour of the old scheduler.

If a schedule was set up to follow after another schedule, and the followed scheduled failed with
an exit code bigger than 127, further scheduling failed with an internal error.

Bugfix SUP-15962 Link to this entry

Core: The content/list cache has been refactored to improve the control over the memory consumption. Now both `fieldContainerCacheSize` and `listFieldCacheSize` values accept the numeric values, meaning the number of cache entries, size in format `XXX{B|K|M|G|T}`, or a percent of total available memory. For instance, the value `50000` means 50000 entries, `5G` means absolute 5 Gigabytes of RAM, `50%` means half of the RAM available to Mesh..

Monitoring: New files, `contentCache.json` and `listableFieldCache.json`, have been added to the debug info response, containing the content cache resources information.

Execution of external tasks in the scheduler has been improved: stdout and stderr of the executed command (script)

which could cause some executions to hang forever.
Additionally, the display of scheduler executions has been improved:

  • Running scheduler tasks will now be shown as “Running“ (instead of “Failed”)
  • Running scheduler tasks will now show the current duration instead of 0

  • The option “General inheritance” did not show the correct status and changing it behaved inconcistently.
  • The inheritance dialog allowed inheriting objects into channels, even if the folder was not inherited in that channel.

Enhancement Link to this entry

Adds asynchronous checks for uploaded binaries. When the new property `binaryCheckUrl` is set for a binary field in a schema, a request for checking the binary will be sent to that URL. The service is expected to send a request to the callback endpoint for that binary to set the check status to either ACCEPTED or DENIED (status for binaries with pending checks is POSTPONED). Requests for binaries with a check status other than ACCEPTED will result in a 404 response.
