To install IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 2:You can install IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office from the fix pack. Alternatively, if you are already running IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office, you can upgrade the desktop client.
You can install IBM Navigator Sync from the fix pack. Alternatively, if you are already running IBM Navigator Sync, you can upgrade the desktop client.
To silently upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client, create a command that includes the appropriate information about your IBM Content Navigator environment. After you construct the command, you must run the command on the client machines.
To silently upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client:
ICNSyncClient.exe /s /v"/qn /L*v \"C:\SyncInstallLog.txt\"
/L*v \"fully_qualified_path_of_the_log_file\"
You can instruct your users to download the IBM Navigator Sync client upgrade program and provide them with the information that they need to connect to IBM Content Navigator.
To upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client interactively on client machines:
When you uninstall the fix pack, you also uninstall IBM Content Navigator. Same for IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office.
IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 2 includes the following new or updated features.
The Hide the Save option in the ribbon bar setting is in the Office Configuration section on the General tab of the desktop configuration. This setting was introduced in Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1.
The following features were introduced in Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1:
From the IBM Content Navigator administration tool, you can control the number of subfolder levels that are synced and the sync schedule for all of the clients in your environment. For more information, see Managing preferences for IBM Navigator Sync clients.
In IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1, you can choose to hide the Save option for one or more desktops in your environment. For example, you can hide the Save option if all of the repositories that are associated with a desktop are IBM Content Manager repositories, or if you want to ensure that users always check in their changes.
The Hide the Save option in the ribbon bar setting is in the Office Configuration setting on the General tab of the desktop configuration.
After you upgrade to IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 and the repository configuration is saved, all teamspace creators can access teamspaces that they are not a member of, including the documents in the teamspaces. This problem affects only teamspaces that were created on IBM FileNet Content Manager or IBM Content Foundation repositories prior to upgrading to IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3. For more information about the problem, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21686043.
IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1, includes a plug-in that you can register and run to resolve this security issue. For more information, see Configuring the teamspace security update via the plug-in.
From the IBM Content Navigator administration tool, you can configure preferences for all of the IBM Navigator Sync clients in your environment.
To manage the preferences for your IBM Navigator Sync clients:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Subfolder levels to sync | Specify the maximum number of subfolders that are automatically synced when a
user syncs a folder. Ensure that your environment is scaled to support the amount of sync traffic that is created by this setting. |
| Sync schedule | Specify how frequently the sync clients connect to the server to send and
recieve updates. The maximum interval is 24 hours or 1440 minutes. Ensure that your environment is scaled to support the amount of sync traffic that is created by the sync schedule. Users can override the sync schedule by clicking Sync Now in the client. |
The teamspace update plug-in enables you to update all of the teamspaces in a repository to ensure that the security of the teamspace is applied appropriately. This action performs the same function as described previously under the "Installing or updating IBM Content Navigator" step 11. If you successfully performed step 11 above, you do not need to perform this function.
If your environment contains teamspaces that were created prior to upgrading to IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3, you must configure this plug-in and run it on each IBM FileNet P8 repository in your environment.
To configure the teamspace update plug-in:
There is a command-line interface that invokes the plugin code that updates all of the teamspaces in a repository to ensure that the security of the teamspace is applied appropriately. The update class is called com.ibm.ecm.teamspace.UpgradeTeamspaces and is located in the teamspaceUpdatePlugin.jar. The command line is intended for use when performing silent intallations. This action performs the same function as described previously under the "Installing or updating IBM Content Navigator" step 11. If you successfully performed step 11 above, you do not need to perform this function.
If your environment contains teamspaces that were created prior to upgrading to IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3, you must configure this plug-in and run it on each IBM FileNet P8 repository in your environment.
The fixes that were provided in IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1 listed below are included in this fix pack.
This fix pack contains fixes for the following APARs:
| APAR | Description |
|---|---|
| IO19643 | (IBM Content Navigator users) While viewing a
document containing rotated text in the applet viewer, when the user searches for
the text that is rotated, the highlight does not properly line up with the
text. With this fix, the highlight lines up with the rotated text. |
| IO21196 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When users search for
text in PDF documents, the first result is highlighted correctly, but when going to
the next result, the search highlights the wrong text. With this fix, the search highlights the correct text. |
| IO21331 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When Outlook 'Inbox'
objects are dragged and dropped onto the IBM Content Navigator desktop, a message
should be displayed indicating when objects cannot be accepted. With this fix, a message is displayed when dropped objects can not be accepted. |
| IO21349 | (IBM Content Navigator users) After installing the
application, the default directory permissions are U-G-W 7-7-7. With this fix, the default permissions are set to U-G-W 7-5-5. |
| IO21810 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When tabbing from an EDS-enabled field, the focus goes to the top instead of the
next property. With this fix, after tabbing out of an EDS-enabled field focus is set to the next available field. |
| IO22014 | (IBM Content Manager users) When a worklist is set up to display the Class name
and the user sorts the list of worklist items, the Class name is displayed instead
of the Class display name. With this fix, the Class display name will be used consistently in the worklists. |
| IO22159 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When a document is
checked out using IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft
Office, and another user deletes the document, the IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office plug-in will hang
because the document no longer exists in repository. With this fix, the application will gracefully continue after displaying an error to the user. |
| IO22165 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When a legacy search template (ex. created with Workplace XT) using a hidden
property is opened in IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office, the hidden
property is not displaying. With this fix, hidden properties used in search criteria are correctly shown. |
| IO22323 | (IBM Content Manager users) After selecting a class in the add dialog, when a
choice list is assigned to a child component attribute by the initialNewObject EDS
request it is removed by a following inProgressChanges EDS request if EDS does not
modify the choice list. With this fix, the choice list assigned to the child component attribute is only changed when the inProgressChanges EDS request modifies the choice list. |
| IO22334 | (IBM Content Manager users) When a user edits the properties of multiple
documents that contain child components with required properties, the user must
enter a value into the required child component property before the Save button is
enabled. With this fix, the user is not required to enter a value into a required child component property when modifying the values of other properties when editing multiple documents. |
| IO22349 | (IBM Content Navigator and IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) When users
are working in a supported SSO environment that uses a site login page, if the
authentication expires Navigator actions fail with an error message. With this fix, the IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office session will be refreshed, and user can continue the action. |
| IO22355 | (IBM Content Manager OnDemand users) When a user performs a search that
contains a Date/Time (TZ) field without a time value, the results are different
between the OnDemand client and IBM Content Navigator. With this fix, the results returned by both applications are the same. |
| IO22362 | (IBM FileNet P8 users) Search operators of FileNet Workplace XT search
templates are read-only in IBM Content Navigator but Workplace XT allows the user to
select 'Like', 'Starts With' and 'Ends With' if the operator is set to 'Like' if the
property type is string. With this fix, IBM Content Navigator will enable the user to select the 'Like', 'Starts With' and 'Ends With' operators when the FileNet Workplace XT search template condition uses the 'Like' operator for the string property type. |
| IO22363 | (IBM Content Navigator) When adding or removing a
user from an existing teamspace, an error is thrown when a user group has been
removed from LDAP and the group was a member of the teamspace. With this fix, the user is able to edit teamspaces that have had a group removed from LDAP. |
| IO22375 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When check-in on close is set and a document is checked out, if the connection is
lost, Microsoft Office can not be closed. With this fix, Microsoft Office can be closed when the connection is lost. |
| IO22381 | (IBM Content Manager users) The entry template layout does not display a field
that EDS has changed from hidden to displayed. With this fix, the EDS display change is applied. |
| IO22388 | (IBM Content Navigator users) Users are unable to
add new documents with P8 entry templates when the "#CREATOR-OWNER" account has been
removed from the Default Instance Security and the document class Owner attribute is
also not set to the "#CREATOR-OWNER" account. With this fix, when adding a document via an entry template created by Workplace XT, the entry template will not have the "Inherit the security settings from the parent folder" setting set to true by default. |
| IO22391 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When users of
Internet Explorer 9 are working with an entry template layout, an extra tooltip
appears in front of hover help. With this fix, the tooltip does not appear. |
| IO22404 | (IBM Content Manager users) When Content Manager users are attempting to
perform a search against all classes, the attribute definitions within attribute
groups are not available. With this fix, the attribute group properties appear. |
| IO22405 | (IBM Content Navigator users) For users with a user
distinguished name that contains escaped characters such as '=' and ',' the
distinguished name is truncated. With this fix, the escaped characters are preserved so that the distinguished name is not truncated. |
| IO22420 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
User receive an error when checking out a document that does not have a released
version. With this fix, the user does not receive an error. |
| IO22428 | (IBM Content Navigator) When converting some
complex documents and the conversion fails, the conversion process might consume a
large amount of native memory. With this fix, the document conversion succeeds and the memory consumption is reduced. |
| IO22431 | (IBM Content Management Interoperability Services users) The customer cannot
use UI mode of ICN Configuration Manager because of their corporation policy. The
customer needs to change the CMIS web services authentication method from HTTP Basic
to WS-Security via the command line. With this fix, the customer is able to change the web services authentication method via the command line. |
| IO22433 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When users attempt to
add a document using an entry template with EDS, the add fails if a layout is not
defined in the entry template. With this fix, the choice list assigned to the child component attribute is only changed when the inProgressChanges EDS request modifies the choice list. |
| IO22434 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When users try to add an email containing a 'TAB' in the subject line, the add
fails. With this fix, the user can add an email if the subject contains a 'TAB'. |
| IO22436 | (IBM Content Manager users) When building a search, the property criteria are
no longer available after switching from selecting multiple classes to the "All"
class. With this fix, the property criteria are available when switching between the selections. |
| IO22437 | (IBM Content Manager users) After an attribute group attribute is used in a
search, it appears twice in the property list for an "All" classes search. With this fix, attribute group attributes only appear once in the "All" classes search property list. |
| IO22439 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When entry template security is configured to override document class security, no
security is assigned to the item. With this fix, the security specified in the entry template is applied. |
| IO22443 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
Users can see a checkbox for a FileNet P8 setting when switching between Entry
Templates with an associated CM repository. With this fix, the user can not see the checkbox. |
| IO22467 | (IBM FileNet P8 users) When a saved or a new search is opened from a P8
repository without the Social Collaboration Base Extensions, an error appears in the
trace log. With this fix, an error no longer appears in the trace log. |
| IO22485 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When Content Manager users are saving a document, the document title is not correct
if the Content Manager repository is configured to use a specific attribute for the
title instead of the default title attribute. With this fix, the correct document title attribute is used. |
| IO22496 | (IBM FileNet P8 users) When the content search reaches the maximum limit, the
error message does not indicate the cause. With this fix, the error message notifies the user of the cause. |
| IO22508 | (IBM Content Navigator users) Undisclosed security
issue
|
| IO22520 | (IBM Content Navigator workflow users) When a
workflow role name contains an ampersand (&), the user cannot add users or
groups to the workflow. With this fix, workflow ids containing an ampersand can update the workflow. |
| IO22530 | (IBM Content Navigator workflow users) When users
are working with a property mapping in a workflow subscription, the workflow item
does not display the values for multi-value properties. With this fix, the multi-value properties will display. |
| IO22540 | (IBM Content Navigator users) Plug-in resources are
locked and cannot be modified when a plug-in is deployed and enabled. With this fix, plug-in resources can be modified when the plug-in is deployed and enabled. |
| IT05726 | (IBM Content Analysis users) When WebSphere 7.x users make some server
requests, the plug-in does not send a response. With this fix, a response is returned. |
The fixes that were provided in IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3.0 Interim Fix 1 listed below are included in this fix pack.
This fix pack contains fixes for the following APARs:
| APAR | Description |
|---|---|
| IO21887 | (IBM Content Manager users) When a property has foreign keys, the dialog
control is not displaying a choice list. With this fix, the list is displayed. |
| IO21891 | (IBM Content Manager users) When creating a new document containing child
components, the previous child component values appear as defaults when a new child
component is added. With this fix, only defined default values are used in the new child component. |
| IO21906 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When an error occurs
during completing a workflow step action, the error processing causes the window to
freeze. With this fix, the window continues processing as expected. |
| IO21907 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When a user logs into
IBM Connections via Kerberos SSO and then accesses IBM Content Navigator via a working URL, the user is prompted
for IBM Content Navigator authentication. This occurs
when IBM Content Navigator and IBM Connections are on
two different WebSphere nodes and the LTPA tokens are not configured to be shared
between the nodes. With this fix, the user is not prompted to authenticate. |
| IO21914 | (IBM Content Manager OnDemand users) When users attempt to open a large AFP
document that has multiple segments, the callback to the server fails to load the
remaining pages. With this fix, all the pages of the AFP document can be loaded. |
| IO21934 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When a user attempts
to see the documents in a workflow, if any of the documents are not available to the
user due to security constraints, none of the documents in the collection will load.
Instead, a message of 'failed to load data' appears. With this fix, the user will see the list of documents that they have access to. |
| IO22008 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When adding an
annotation using the FileNet viewer, the annotation shows the user ID, not the user
short name or display name. This makes it difficult to identify who added the
annotations. With this fix, by default, the tooltip will still show the user ID. If the user display name is desired, the tooltip must be configured in the admin to use the new tag "<creatorname>". This applies to Daeja ViewONE/ViewONE Professional/customAnnotationTooltip. Example: Created By: <creatorname>, Created On: <createdate> |
| IO22014 | (IBM Content Manager users) When a worklist is set up to display the Class name
and the user sorts the list of worklist items, the Class name is displayed instead
of the Class display name. With this fix, the Class display name will be used consistently in the worklists. |
| IO22044 | (IBM FileNet users) If a user associates an entry template to a folder, then
adds a document to that folder, the document should use the security parameters as
set in the entry template. IBM Content Navigator is
using the default Instance Security from the document class. With this fix, the entry template security is applied correctly to the new document. |
| IO22091 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When using legacy search templates, the properties with read only and hidden
attributes are not handled correctly. With this fix, the handling of the read only and hidden properties is correct. |
| IO22092 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When a user has the
locale set to Hebrew, Arabic, or other right-to-left language and is opening a
bookmarked document, the viewer displays an empty dialog. With this fix, the user is able to view the bookmarked document with the locale set to a right-to-left language. |
| IO22095 | (IBM Content Navigator users) When the user checks
in a document in a browser that supports HTML5, more than one file
can be selected. Only one file should be selected for a document check in. With this fix, the user is allowed to select only one file. |
| IO22122 | (IBM Content Manager OnDemand users) The status message for the Apply/Remove
Hold action has the incorrect count for the number of holds. With this fix, the hold count is correct. |
| IO22224 | (IBM FileNet P8 users) When upgrading from IBM Content Navigator from Version 2.0.2.x to Version 2.0.3,
the inheritance security was changed so all users would have the View permission for
a folder and all of the children. This caused a regression which made all teamspaces
created with Version 2.0.2.x visible to all other users. With this fix, the View permission is set correctly so that only members of a teampace can view the teamspace. A teamspace upgrade utility will be provided to update teamspaces created prior to 2.0.3. The InheritFromParent property will be changed according to the P8 version. New teamspaces created with 2.0.3 have this property set to false by default, this only applied to P8 5.2. On P8 5.1, the new teamspaces created with 2.0.3.1 on P8 5.1, will be set to true by default. |
| IO22229 | (IBM Content Manager users) When an admin is working with a Content Manager
itemtype that contains grouped properties, the Entry Template builder is not opening
into Layout Editor. With this fix, the Layout Editor will open in the Entry Template builder when working with Content Manager grouped properties. |
| IO22255 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
When the plug-in starts, it calls getDesktop multiple
times. With this fix, the call to getDesktop occurs once. |
| IO22260 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users)
After upgrading to IBM Content Navigator Version 2.0.3
Interim Fix 001, Content Manager users are not able to add documents if the item
type is not configured with the default security. With this fix, new Content Manager documents will receive the proper security set. |
| IO22282 | (IBM Content Manager users) When a user is trying to save a new entry template,
if there is not a hierarchical root folder or the user does not have privileges or
access to the hierarchical root folder, then the save fails. With this fix, the user is able to save new entry templates. |
| IO22285 | (IBM Content Management Interoperability Services users) When upgrading from
Version 2.0.2.x to 2.0.3, there are some previously installed library files that are
not removed. The newer files are installed in the same directory. Depending on which
libraries get loaded by the application determines if the documents can be
loaded. With this fix, the older libraries are removed so that the newer libraries are always loaded. |
| IO22314 | (IBM Content Navigator users) The Add
Document dialog does not display the class selector and properties if a
search result item is selected before choosing the Add
action. With this fix, the Add Document dialog is displayed correctly. |
| IO22333 | (IBM Navigator Sync client users) Users can sync their documents and list the
contents of the folder. However, for users that can not view a document in the
folder causes a partial sync for the user. This leaves the sync incomplete and
unable to continue. With this fix, the sync will complete for users that do not have view permissions for all the documents in the folder. |
| IO22341 | (IBM Content Navigator users) Small JSON responses
returned by IBM Content Navigator server plug-in
services are not sent to the client. With this fix, small JSON responses are sent to the client. |
This interim fix contains fixes for the following APARs:
| APAR | Description |
|---|---|
| IO21860 | (IBM Content Navigator users) The error message
tooltip is not displayed if EDS returns a custom validation error and the
invalid field is not in the display area. This issue occurs when adding an item,
checking in an item, or when editing item properties. With this fix, the error message tooltip for the invalid field is displayed. |
| IO22021 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
users) When EDS is enabled and the choice list has the
'hasDependent' property set to '1', then the
search will hang. With this fix, the search performs as expected. |
| IO22022 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
users) After a user saves a document to a class that has EDS configured, and
then attempts to modify the document, a generic error message may appear:
"Cannot perform runtime binding on a null reference". The expected behavior is
that a custom error is displayed for the invalid field. With this fix, a custom error message is shown. |
| IO22023 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
users) When running a saved search, only the first search template displays the
search criteria due to an EDS error when checking for desktop value. With this fix, the saved search will run without an error. |
| IO22031 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
users) The full text search is not working with the same function as the
IBM Content Navigator web application. With this fix, the two applications are on par for full text search. |
| IO22048 | (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
users) When a user selects to Add Document from the
context menu in Outlook, the user has to reselect the repository before the
required attributes are shown. With this fix, the repository remains selected. |
| IO22150 | (IBM Content Navigator users) The IBM Content Navigator Version 2.0.3 ecm.model.Request
object method invokeSynchronousPluginService() is not
compatible with code written for previous versions. With this fix, the method is compatible with code written for previous versions. |
