Fixed Defects

Severity

Description

Defect

Minor

Fixed an issue where files written to S3 had a WebDav path as content instead of the expected content.

PPP-47797

BIOVIA Pipeline Pilot 2022 HF1 included fixes for the following defects, and BIOVIA Pipeline Pilot 2022 HF3 also ensures these fixes are made, in the case where HF1 was not previously installed.

Severity

Description

Defect

Minor

Fixed an issue where the Admin Portal Setup/Server Configuration and Security/Security Configuration pages would not notify the administrator when settings that require a restart of the Apache and Tomcat PLP services are changed.

PPP-47526

Minor

Fixed the Security/Authentication page to work correctly when logged into the Admin Portal as an external account (such as a Windows Domain or Linux Local user).

PPP-47618

Major

Fixed an issue where setting the parameter "Use Absolute Urls" to true would create invalid JavaScript within HTML reports written to locations outside the job folder if the report included interactive charts. 

"Use Absolute Urls" is a new parameter for Pipeline Pilot 2022 that restores v2021 and earlier behavior of writing absolute HTTP URLs within reports.  The default behavior of reports in v2022 is now to use relative server paths for internal HTML links (see the Release Notes for v2022), but there are use cases where the absolute paths must still be used.

PPP-47592

Minor

Browsers with existing valid session cookies from prior versions of Pipeline Pilot (2021.2 and earlier) would not be able to authenticate to a 2022.1 server. The server home page and web port portals would become inoperative and the login page would not work correctly. The server error logs would indicate that the session had expired.

This would most often occur immediately following an upgrade of an existing Pipeline Pilot server.

Such valid sessions are now converted to the new format.

PPC-10539

Minor

It was observed that large numbers of API HMAC /auth/serverstatus log messages would appear in the scitegicerror_apache.log when Professional Clients would connect to the server from hosts with large latency to the server, such as from a separate continent. The messages were innocuous and generally did not affect the client's behavior. The messages will now only appear if multiple API HMAC failures occur on the server in rapid succession.

PPC-10536

Major

Guidance and installer to ensure a Windows server has the latest VS2017 redistributable required by the Qt library used in the chemistry collection.
