Bug fixes

  • You’ll be alerted if you try to package an un-existing service item (the item has been deleted or renamed).

PGSQL manager

We fixed an error which broke the PSQL manager. This was introduced in the 5.20.1 release. You should no longer see the following error in the logs.

2018-10-30 07:55:58,915 ERROR [com.amalto.b2box.core.impl.ObjectCtrlImpl] (main) Unable to store the Object  .work.logging_event.01398170db8111e893b10242ac0d0003-20181029T134636m714 (ObjectCtrlImpl.java:181)
java.lang.NullPointerException

According to the way the table’s data are indexed, some entries were duplicated in the search results. The search query generated was corrected.

Transactions permissions

You no longer need the admin permission (transactions=*) to perform an action on a workflow task or on a transaction. All permissions related to transactions are described in the Transactions guide.

Workflow Steps

  • Memory workflow steps are now saved by its whole identifier (name & application key) and not only by name.
  • The workflow.localeText DSL method returns now the correct internationalized labels map.
