Resolutions

FlashConnect

Action ID

Description

25709

Corrected a problem where the FC Manager would not remove extra FlashCONNECT connections when they were no longer needed. This only occurred in rare instances.

26002

Corrected a problem where the FC tandem port displayed w3mvDInput2 instead of W3INPUT as with previous versions of FlashCONNECT.

26055

Corrected a problem with the W3CONFIG file with the S option so that server pool names are forced to be case sensitive.

26662

Corrected a problem with FCService that caused the heartbeat feature to fail on Linux 7.

26927

Corrected a problem where the FlashCONNECT configuration programs would not check for valid input type.

26951

Corrected a problem where the w3monitor would start an incorrect number of ports when starting FlashCONNECT.

26996

Corrected a problem where the w3monitor would report incorrect information when a server pool is set to down.

27186

Corrected a problem where the server pool name would always revert back to lower case. FlashCONNECT now maintains the original casing of the server pool name as entered in the w3config file.

27249

Corrected a problem where, after rebooting the database server, the www-status command would show the FlashCONNECT monitor as running, even though it was not. This occurred when shutting down D3 without stopping FlashCONNECT first.

27305

Corrected a problem where the www-install command would not complete if there was a logon macro in that account.

27343

Corrected a problem where FC would return a page with a leading char(10). The char(10) at the beginning of an XML document results in an invalid XML format.

27375

Corrected a problem where the FC admin program used to enter Server Pool information would not check for valid data entered in the numeric fields.

27402

Corrected a problem where the WWW-MONITOR command would display incomplete text.

27624

Corrected a problem where the User assigned to a FC catalog (w3apps) would not show in the maintenance screen if the name field in the w3users file is empty. In this case, FC now shows the w3user ID.

27782

Corrected a problem where variables passed to w3GetVal would not get initialized to null. To preserve the value of the variable when using w3GetVal, the second parameter must be preceded by a plus (+) sign.

ex: Call w3GetVal(Var,"+Data")
