To review all known problems, restrictions, and solutions that affect Version 2.0.3 fix packs, use the following link to query the product support knowledge base: http://www.ibm.com/support/search.wss?tc=SSEUEX&atrn1=SWVersion&atrv=2.0.3&rankprofile=8&dc=DB520+DB560+D600+DA400+DA420&dtm.

In addition, the fix pack includes the following known problems:
Upgrading IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office version 2.0.2.x to 2.0.3.x
Important: The following differences apply to specific version upgrades:
  • Upgrading from version 2.0.2.[0-6] to any 2.0.3.x release is successful.
  • Upgrading from version 2.0.2.7 to the 2.0.3.6 or higher release is successful.
  • Upgrading from version 2.0.3.6 to 2.0.3.7 or higher, run only the configure IBM Content Navigator Application task, ReBuildear task and the Deploy task.
Note: Due to the nature of the 2.0.2.8 to 2.0.3.6 or higher upgrade:
  • For an upgrade from version 2.0.2.8 to 2.0.3.6 or higher, if IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office 2.0.2.8 was previously installed in a non-default destination folder, the upgrade will uninstall version 2.0.2.8 and then install 2.0.3.6 or higher into the default destination folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Content Navigator for Microsoft Office. All configuration information is preserved.
IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office connected to IBM Content Manager repositories Saved Searches disappear
For all IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office versions prior to 2.0.3.6 or 2.0.2.8 connected through a IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3.6 or higher server to IBM Content Manager repositories, Saved Searches do not appear. This only applies to IBM Content Manager repositories.
Java and Internet Explorer
When you use Java version 7 update 85 or Java version 8 update 60, 65, 66, 71, or 73 with Internet Explorer, you may experience slow performance when you load applets. You can resolve the problem by either using Java version 8 update 72, 74, or higher, or by using Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.
Java and Google Chrome
Some features of IBM Content Navigator use Java applets. If you access IBM Content Navigator from Google Chrome, Version 42 or later, Chrome displays a message that the plug-in is blocked if you use an applet-based feature.

Starting with Google Chrome, Version 42, Netscape Plugin Application Programming Interface (NPAPI) is disabled by default. Web applications that use Java applets do not function properly unless NPAPI is re-enabled. For more information about configuring NPAPI-based Java plug-ins under Google Chrome, Version 42, see:

Starting with Google Chrome, Version 45, NPAPI is not supported, so the applets cannot be run using this browser. It is recommended that you use a different browser.

For more information about java applets and Chrome, see:
IBM Content Navigator cannot be started with WS-Security Authentication
If you install and configure IBM Content Navigator and IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager, and you select WS-Security Authentication for the IBM CMIS authentication method, an error occurs when you start the application server. You can use WS-Security Authentication for IBM CMIS only.

To resolve the problem, you must use separate configuration profiles. First, create a configuration profile that includes IBM Content Navigator but does not include IBM CMIS. Then, create a separate configuration profile that includes IBM CMIS only, and select WS-Security Authentication. Deploy IBM Content Navigator first, and then deploy IBM CMIS so that each application has its own authentication method.

Saved searches with the Between operator on string data types are redisplayed differently
Previously, you could create and save a search where the search criteria included the Between operator on string data types. However, the Between operator is only supported for integer choice lists. The Between operator for string data types is not supported. Now, for IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office, if you open a saved search that was created with a Between operator on string data types, instead of returning an error, the search is displayed by converting the search criteria to valid combination of the operators Greater Than or Equal and Less Than or Equal.
Oracle Java Runtime Environment security warnings
For information about issues with Oracle JRE, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21640073.
Line data applet viewer issue
You cannot add or delete graphical annotations in the line data applet viewer if IBM Content Navigator is deployed on Oracle WebLogic Server and you use OnDemand Web Enablement Kit, Version 9.0. The minimum required version of OnDemand Web Enablement Kit is Version 9.0.0.3.
The Properties dialog for a step does not display in some configurations (IBM FileNet Content Manager users)
When the Properties dialog window size is larger than the step processor, the dialog window does not display. The window size is configurable in the Process Configuration console. This setting dictates the size of the window.

For information about this issue, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27040559

Document Streaming Server Modules cannot share a cache
If two or more Document Streaming Server Modules share a cache, issues can occur when running the IBM Daeja ViewONE viewers. Ensure that each streamer is configured to use a separate cache. For example, ensure that each streamer has a dedicated folder on a local file system rather than configuring the streamers to use a shared network directory.

For more information about configuring the Document Streaming Server Module cache, see http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEUEX_2.0.3/com.ibm.installingeuc.doc/eucco125.htm in IBM Knowledge Center.

IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager users must configure an administrator alias
If you use IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager, you must configure WebSphere Application Server to use the credentials of an IBM FileNet Content Manager administrator to retrieve the complete set of information about the visible object stores in the domain. This ensures that the necessary information is available to complete user requests.

If you do not create an administrator alias, incomplete information about the object stores is cached, and users might encounter errors when using IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager.

For more information, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27043865.

Updates to your IBM Connections configuration are not reflected in the IBM FileNet Collaboration Services and IBM FileNet Content Manager repository settings
If you modify the settings on the IBM Connections tab in the administration tool, the changes are not reflected in IBM FileNet Collaboration Services or in your IBM FileNet Content Manager repository.

For more information, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27046014.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 has some accessibility issues and limitations

Application edition management option is displayed in unsupported configurations
Application Edition Management is supported only on WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, Version 8.5 when you deploy your web application in a highly available cluster.
However, when you run the IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool, the Application Edition Management option is shown in the following unsupported configurations:
  • Deploying to WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, Version 8.0, with either Cluster or Network Deployment selected as your deployment type.
  • Deploying to WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, Version 8.5, with Network Deployment selected as your deployment type.
Important: Do not specify a value other than "default" for the Application Edition Management option in these scenarios.
The IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool is not completely translated in some languages
If you use the IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool in the following locales, you might see a mix of English and non-English strings:
  • Arabic
  • Greek
  • Hebrew
  • Kazakh
  • Vietnamese  
Content Manager OnDemand v9.0.0.x - Text should not be highlighted when not a text search
To recreate the problem, use the following steps:
  1. Run a text search, and open one search result item. The text search string from the text search is highlighted.
  2. Run another search that is not a text search, where the same search result item is returned.
  3. Opens the same search result item. The text search string from the text search is still highlighted.
Content Manager OnDemand fix PI48764 resolves this problem.
FileTracker does not delete the temporary directory
The issue can be resolved by updating the JRE to 1.7.0_76 or 1.8.0_40.
Firefox file upload progress indicator
With recent versions of Firefox, the progress indicator does not reach 100% until the server response is received.

For more information, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1187239

Firefox browser setting affects translation display for Browse button
If you selected a translated language and locale, you might still see untranslated text on the Browse button. To resolve the problem, you must download, install, and use the language package for the Firefox browser. To find your language package, see https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/.
IBM Daeja Virtual viewer version 4.1.5 does not support the text/plain MIME type

Sync client for Mac 2.0.3 Fix Pack 7 does not support silent installation
The 2.0.3 Fix Pack 7 Sync client for Mac silent installer does not exist.
IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment tool crashes on a Redhat 7.1 environment.

The IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment tool crashes when you navigate to the root directory on a Redhat 7.1 environment. The crash occurs in the scrollbar code which becomes enabled if there are more than 10 folders.

The workaround is to enter the full folder path in the address bar and not use the file dialog to navigate with.

Firefox is unable to add a 2GB file through IBM Content Navigator to a Box repository

Uploading a large file of up to 2GB with Firefox fails to both FileNet Content Manager and Box. Uploading the same files using Internet Explorer or Chrome do not fail.

IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3.2 entry template dependency

If you are using IBM Content Navigator created entry templates and update to IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3.2 or later, you must also upgrade IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office to 2.0.3.2 or later.

Daeja Virtual deployed to Weblogic on Linux cannot redact a document
The redaction fails with an error.
The workaround is to create a directory /opt/docRepositoryRoot/root with 777 permissions. Then in IBM Content Navigator, go to admin settings for Daeja ViewONE and on the virtual tab, add in the additional settings:
Name: docRepositoryRoot
Value /opt/docRepositoryRoot/root

Save the settings and restart Weblogic.

Box share with Oracle RAC
As of the release date, Box share functionality is not supported for Oracle RAC.

For updated information, see http://www.ibm.com/software/reports/compatibility/clarity-reports/report/html/softwareReqsForProduct?deliverableId=1379371439042#prereqs-2.

Uploading large files with Firefox v38 to Filenet P8 or Box

Uploading a large file, up to 2GB with Firefox 38.3.0ESR fails on both P8 and Box. Uploading the same file with Chrome and Internet Explorer succeeds.

Install issues occur if the new install task is not run
The application server can not load IBM Content Navigator if the Configure the Task Manager Component task is not run during installation. See Installing or updating IBM Content Navigator, step 6-B.
File Tracker 'local copy' file deletion
With 2.0.3 Fix Pack 6 or higher, the File Tracker option "Delete local copy" is only applicable to files within the File Tracker directory. For security reasons, if the 'local copy' is not located in the File Tracker directory, then the file must be deleted manually.
InstallAnywhere message is displayed in English only
If you use InstallAnywhere to uninstall IBM Content Navigator while IBM Navigator Sync Client is running, the following message is displayed: "You must close the IBM Navigator Sync Client before you can uninstall/update the software." This message is displayed in English, regardless of your language setting.
IBM CMIS Webservice binding limitation
IBM CMIS v1.0 supports Webservice binding with both Basic HTTP and WS-Security authentication.
IBM CMIS v1.1 supports Webservice binding only with Basic HTTP authentication.
Incorrect instructions for configuring the wls:security-role-assignment in WebLogic 12.1.3
The instructions provided in the documentation is incorrect in http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEUEX_2.0.3/com.ibm.installingeuc.doc/eucde065.htm
In Steps 3 a,b,c, the note states: Important: You must create a new <wls:security-role-assignment> stanza for each user or group that you want to associate with the TaskAdmins role.
This information is incorrect for WebLogic 12.1.3. The instructions should state for Step 3b: Important: You must create a new <wls:principal-name> stanza for each user or group that you want to associate with the TaskAdmins role under the <wls:security-role-assignment> stanza.
Example:
<wls:security-role-assignment>
   <wls:role-name>TaskUsers</wls:role-name>
      <wls:principal-name>users</wls:principal-name>
      <wls:principal-name>user1</wls:principal-name>
      <wls:principal-name>user2</wls:principal-name>
    ... 
</wls:security-role-assignment>
IBM FileNet P8 document filed in multiple folders is redacted to the wrong folder
A limitation exists for FileNet P8 documents that are filed into multiple folders. When saving the redacted content to a new document from a document linked in the Favorites, will always save the redacted document to the first folder the document is filed in. The workaround for this limitation is to navigate to the folder the document is redacted document is created in and move the document to the desired folder.
IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager (For Administrators)
Unable to deploy FileNet CMIS v1.0 and FileNet CMIS v1.1 both together /side-by-side in Weblogic 10.3.6. WebLogic 10.3.6 is not able to load JAX-B web interceptor when there is another application in the same EAR using the Apache CFX interceptor. When users try to install both FileNet CMIS v1.0 (using JAXB) and FileNet CMIS v1.1 (using CFX) together and Configuration Manager bundles both WAR files into the same navigator.ear the issue occurs. To workaround the issue please follow these steps:
  1. Using Configuration and Deployment Tool, create a profile and Select ONLY “IBM CMIS v1.1 for FileNet Content Manager”, build and deploy the application on server.
  2. Again using Configuration and Deployment Tool , create a different profile and Select ONLY “IBM CMIS v1.0 for FileNet Content Manager” and just build the application, do not Deploy (do not run “Deploy the Web application” task).
  3. Locate the navigatorEAR.ear file (created in the step above) at <<ICN installation directory>>\ECMClient\configure\deploy folder and unzip to find the fncmis.war.
  4. Perform the manual deployment of fncmis.war through the weblogic console.
Applet Viewer does not prompt for saving annotation
The viewer does not prompt for saving an annotation when closing viewer window using Firefox 45.2. The only workaround available is to use Firefox 38 or another browser.
Firefox 45.2 Change language dialog
The Change language dialog does not appear after switching to a non-U.S. language when using FireFox 45.2.

      • Delete the subfolders in the wstemp directory. This folder is different from the temp folder. Do not delete the wstemp folder itself.

        For example, on Windows, delete the subfolders in following directory: IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\wstemp.

    • For Oracle WebLogic Server: Delete the navigator folder from the tmp temporary directory.

      For example, on Windows, delete the navigator folder from the following directory: \Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\base_domain\servers\AdminServer\tmp\_WL_user.

  9. Start the IBM Content Navigator web application server.
  10. Verify that the correct version of the software is deployed to the web application server. For more information, see the topic, "Verifying your deployment" in the information center: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEUEX_2.0.3/com.ibm.installingeuc.doc/eucvr000.htm. For example, if you installed IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 8, the version number is icn203.800.411.
  11. If you did not perform this step after upgrading to Fix Pack 1 and you have FileNet Content Manager repositories with teamspaces configured, then do the following steps:
    Tip: Alternatively, you can complete this step systematically by using a plug-in or by running a command instead. See "Configuring the teamspace security update via the plug-in" or "Configuring teamspace security update via the command line."
    • As an IBM Content Navigator administrator:
      • Log into the IBM Content Navigator administration tool.
      • Go to the IBM FileNet Content Manager repository that has teamspaces.
      • Edit the repository with teamspaces enabled.
      • Connect to the repository as operating system (OS) Admin (A message will indicate that the teamspaces will be updated).
      • Confirm that the settings are correct, and click Save and Close.
        • This action will trigger the Utility Tool to run and update the Security Model on the teamspaces. This action might require a few minutes to complete depending on the number of teamspaces.
      • Repeat these steps for each IBM FileNet Content Manager repository that has teamspaces.

Updating the sync module on your repositories

IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 4 includes changes to the sync module. If you enabled sync on a repository and you upgrade to IBM Content Navigator Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 4 or later, you must update the sync module on the repository.

    • Create a batch executable file that includes the silent upgrade command and instruct your users to download the executable file from a URL.
    • 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.

If you are running IBM Navigator Sync on a FIPS-compliant workstation you might receive an error when you try to upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client to Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 4 or higher. For more information on resolving this problem, see Upgrading IBM Navigator Sync on a FIPS-compliant workstation.

Upgrading the IBM Navigator Sync client for Windows silently

To silently upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client for Windows, 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. Note: The IBM Navigator Sync client for Mac OS X can not be installed silently.

Download the IBM Navigator Sync component from Passport Advantage.
If you create a silent upgrade of the IBM Navigator Sync client, you must decide how you will deploy the silent upgrade to the client machines in your environment. For example, you can:
  • Push a silent upgrade of the IBM Navigator Sync client to your client machines.
  • Create a batch executable file that includes the silent upgrade command and instruct your users to download the executable file from a URL.
Important: When you upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client, all registry values and installation directory files are retained. If you want to change the registry values and installation directory files, you must manually edit them and push the updated versions of the files to the client machines in your environment.

To silently upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client for Windows:

Change to the directory where you downloaded the IBM Navigator Sync client product and enter the following command:
ICNSyncClient.exe /s /v"/qn /L*v \"C:\SyncInstallLog.txt\" 
Any messages and errors from the installation program are written to the C:\SyncInstallLog.txt log file. If you want to generate the log file in a different location, modify the following argument in the command:
/L*v \"fully_qualified_path_of_the_log_file\" 

Upgrading the IBM Navigator Sync client interactively

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. Note: The IBM Navigator Sync client for Mac OS X can not be installed silently.

Download the IBM Navigator Sync component from Passport Advantage.
Important: When you upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client, all registry values and installation directory files are retained. If you want to change the registry values and installation directory files, you must manually edit them and push the updated versions of the files to the client machines in your environment.

To upgrade the IBM Navigator Sync client interactively on client machines:

  1. Instruct your users about where they can download the IBM Navigator Sync client upgrade program.
  2. When the installation is complete, instruct users to enter the URL of their desktop and specify the sync folder.

Managing preferences for IBM Navigator Sync clients

From the IBM Content Navigator administration tool, you can configure preferences for all of the IBM Navigator Sync clients in your environment.

When you configure the preferences for the IBM Navigator Sync clients in your environment, users cannot change these settings in the IBM Navigator Sync client.

    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.

  4. Save your changes.

Configuring the teamspace security update via the plug-in

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.

This plug-in resolves the issue that is described in the following technote: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21686043.

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 Content Manager repository in your environment.

Important: It can take a long time for the plug-in to update the teamspaces in your environment. It is recommended that you do not run the plug-in during peak business hours.

To configure the teamspace update plug-in:

  1. Log in to IBM Content Navigator as an administrator and open the administration tool.
  2. Click Plug-ins and then click New Plug-in.
  3. Select JAR file path and enter the fully qualified URL or the file path to the teamspaceUpdatePlugin.jar file:
    • Enter the URL in the following sample format: http://host_name:port_number/ECMClient_installdir/plugins/teamspaceUpdatePlugin.jar
    • Enter the path to the file that is installed on the server, for example:
      • On AIX, Linux, or Linux for System z, the default file location is /opt/IBM/ECMClient/plugins/teamspaceUpdatePlugin.jar.
      • On Windows, the default file location is C:\Program Files\IBM\ECMClient\plugins\teamspaceUpdatePlugin.jar
  4. Click Load.
  5. Enter the user name and password of the object store administrator for the repository that you need to update.
  6. Select the repository that you need to update and click Upgrade Teamspaces.
  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for each repository that contains teamspaces that were created prior to upgrading to IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3.

Configuring the teamspace security update via the command line interface

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.

This command line tool resolves the issue that is described in the following technote: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21686043.

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 Content Manager repository in your environment.

Important: It can take a long time for the plug-in to update the teamspaces in your environment. It is recommended that you do not run the plug-in during peak business hours.
  1. Ensure that the command line environment is set up with all the required Content Engine dependencies before you run the update utility. The following link describes how to set up the command line interface.

What’s new for users?

Integrating IBM Content Navigator with Microsoft Office
You can now rename documents while using Enterprise Content Management features from Microsoft Office applications.
Get Next feature for workflows
The Get Next feature for workflows improves the performance of processing items in an in-basket by processing unlocked items regardless of their position in the queue and lowering the amount of time to process the items. Your administrator must add the ICNGetNext property to the Process Configuration Console before you can use this feature.
For complete information, see "IBM Content Navigator documentation: Configuring the Get Next feature for workflows (IBM FileNet P8)" at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27048109.
Support for simultaneous modification of multiple items
Users can now simultaneously modify multiple documents and folders that have different entry templates. Beginning in this release, the Properties window supports entry templates in the following ways:
  • When a user selects multiple documents or folders that have different entry templates and then the user right-clicks the Properties menu item, the entry template names for the selected items are displayed in a new column of the Choose Class window.
  • Documents and folders with entry templates that do not allow properties to be modified are listed in the Choose Class window and can be edited as if they did not have entry templates.
  • The following entry template settings are honored in the Properties window; all other entry template settings are ignored.
    • Property order
    • Hidden / Shown
    • Required / Not Required
    • Required / Not Required
  • An External Data Service (EDS) has precedence over entry template settings, for example, if the EDS makes a property read-only but that property is editable in the entry template, the property is read-only in the Properties window.
IBM CMIS for Enterprise Content Management
You can now search for items in multiple classes in a supported IBM CMIS repository. Searching for content in multiple classes is useful if you do your work in more than one class in a repository, and you want to search for content in those classes.
For complete information, see "IBM CMIS for Enterprise Content Management documentation: Searching for content in multiple classes" at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27048399.
Sync Server Summary page page access
The Sync Server Summary page which was publicly available is now protected and accessible only by authenticated users.

What’s new for administrators?

IBM QuickFile plug-in is obsolete
IBM QuickFile is no longer supported and the IBM QuickFile plug-in is no longer shipped with IBM Content Navigator.
Email mapping plug-in updated
The plug-in service that is called from IBM Content Navigator was changed for the Email mapping plug-in. If you installed the plug-in from IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 6 or Fix Pack 7, you must re-install the updated plug-in, and then re-apply any customizations you made to the .json file or Java code that was provided by those fix packs.
For updated information on this plug-in, see "IBM Content Navigator documentation: Configuring the Email mapping plug-in" at http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27047212
Get Next feature for workflows
The Get Next feature for workflows improves the performance of processing items in an in-basket by processing unlocked items regardless of their position in the queue and lowering the amount of time to process the items.
For complete information, see "IBM Content Navigator documentation: Configuring the Get Next feature for workflows (IBM FileNet P8)" at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27048109
IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager
When you are configuring IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager, the port number is now part of the Content Platform Engine server URL field . There is no longer a separate port number field.
The port number you include is the IIOP or T3 port number of your Content Engine or Content Platform Engine deployment. You can get this information from your Content Engine or Content Platform Engine administrator or from the web application server where Content Engine or Content Platform Engine is deployed.
  • On WebSphere® Application Server, the default port number is 2809.
  • On Oracle WebLogic Server, the default port number is 7001.
Enabling Box Share
Important: The information in this section supercedes the information in the same-named section of the IBM Content Navigator Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 6 Readme.
You can enable Box Share for a FileNet Content Manager repository or an IBM Content Manager repository. To enable Box Share, complete the following steps:
  1. Enable task manager in the administration tool Settings.
  2. For the Box repository for sharing, set the Share administrator.
  3. FileNet Content Manager repositories only: Set the task manager connection ID and enable Box Share.

    When you save this configuration setting, an add-on is installed on the repository.

    Box Share is supported on FileNet Content Manager V5.2.0 or later.

  4. IBM Content Manager repositories only: Set the task manager connection ID, enable Box Share, and select the item types that you want users to be able to share.

    When you save this configuration setting, the classes that you selected are modified on the repository.

  5. On the desktop, enable Box Share, select the Box repository for sharing, and configure whether to allow users to edit the email address to send from when sharing a document.
Disabling the caching of desktop settings
Beginning in this release, you can disable the caching of desktop settings by using the "Cache desktop settings at the server for each user" option in the IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool.

By default, the caching of desktop settings is enabled.

You might want to disable the caching of desktop settings if, for example, your users typically take a single view action and then close their browsers. In this case, they get no benefit from the caching of desktop settings.
New Others role
In previous releases, any user or group that was assigned a custom set of privileges that did not exactly match the privilege set of a User, Creator, or Editor was displayed as an Administrator. The correct security was enforced by IBM Content Navigator, but the user or group did not always have administrator privileges, so identifying the user or group as an administrator was misleading.
Beginning in this release:
  • Only users and groups with administrator privileges are displayed as Administrators.
  • Any user or group that has a custom set of privileges that does not match the privilege set of a User, Creator, or Editor is displayed in the new Other role.
  • You can move a user or group in the Other role to one of the predefined roles by first, removing the user or group from the Others role and then assigning the user or group to a predefined role.
Note: This information is specific to the following sections in the Administration View.
  • The Teamspace management section on the Repositories / Configuration Parameters tab
  • The Entry template management section on the Repositories / Configuration Parameters tab
  • The Search Roles section on the Repositories / Search tab
Default favorites system object context menu is now a configurable property
The Default favorites system object context menu is displayed when a user right-clicks an entry template, search, workflow, or eForm in the Favorites list. By default, this context menu includes actions that enable the user to open and work with the selected favorite.

Beginning in this release, the Default favorites system object context menu is configurable from the Menus tab of the Administration View.

Improved user interface for configuring IBM FileNet P8 inherited permissions
The user interface for configuring IBM FileNet P8 inherited permissions was improved in this release. The Folder view and Document view are now combined into a single view. Additionally, tri-state check boxes are used to show a range of access levels:
  • No access (cleared)
  • Full access (selected)
  • Partial access (shaded)
Sync Server Summary page page access
The Sync Server Summary page, '/sync/api/configurations/ping', which was publicly available is now protected and accessible only by authenticated users.
The Sync Server Summary page, '/sync/api/configurations/secureping', which was accessible by authenticated users is now accessible only by administrators.

What’s new for developers?

parentFolderName  An optional parameter indicating the name of the parent folder for the new teamspace (P8 only). 
                  When not specified, new P8 teamspaces are partitioned into YYYY-MM folders. 

What’s new for installers?

KnowledgeCenter security vulnerability fix
The KCCI 1.5.1 fix pack contains the Apache Commons Collections 3.2.2 security vulnerability fix.
InstallAnywhere security vulnerability fix
IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3.8 and IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft SharePoint 2.0.3.8 contain the InstallAnywhere 2015 SP1 security vulnerability fix (Public Hotfix IOJ-1745445). The IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3.8 installer bundles IBM SDK 1.8 SR3 as the installer VM for all the platforms.
Uninstalling IBM Content Navigator
Beginning with 2.0.3 Fix Pack 8, the Configuration Manager profiles are saved under a "profiles_backup" folder.

Features and solutions introduced in Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 7

The following APARs for Daeja 4.1.5 are included in this fixpack: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27046739. Additional information is included in the Daeja 4.1.5 IF002 readme.

What’s new for users?

Using Disconnect for IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
If your repository connection dropped, or if you want to log out of the current desktop so that you can log in to another desktop, you can use the Disconnect action in the Login group in the ribbon bar. The Disconnect action disconnects all Microsoft Office applications, so that you can reconnect or change your connection without closing any of your open applications.
Ping page access
The Ping page which was publicly available is now protected and accessible only by administrators.

What’s new for administrators?

Ping page access
The IBM Content Navigator Ping page, /Ping, can only be accessed by administrators.
The new Ping page is loaded in the context of the administration desktop so administrators will be prompted to log in to the administration desktop before they can access the Ping page.
FileNet Collaboration Services ping page access
The FNCS ping page, /dm, can only be accessed by administrators.
New naming conventions supported for administrator user IDs
Previously, in the administration tool settings, to specify IBM Content Navigator administrators, you specified a short name for the user ID. However, if the same user ID was used for a user in a different realm whom you did not intend to grant administrator access, that user could log in as an administrator. Now, in IBM Content Navigator Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 7 or later, to prevent this situation, you can specify the realm name and user ID.
You can use a short name, for example:
  • User1
Or, you can specify a user name with a realm to differentiate the users, for example:
  • company/User1
  • company/User1@company.com
  • DefaultWIMFileBased/User1
When the administrator user ID is verified, the comparison is case insensitive. To view the realm name for your user ID, you can hover over your login name in the IBM Content Navigator desktop banner.
Selecting plug-ins to load with a desktop
Previously, when a user opened an IBM Content Navigator desktop, all plug-ins were loaded, whether or not the plug-in was necessary for the layout or features included in that desktop. Now, an administrator can specify whether to enable all plug-ins for the desktop, or select only the plug-ins that are needed. By excluding the plug-ins that are not needed, the resources associated with the plug-in are not loaded, and in some cases this might improve performance and scalability. You can select the plug-ins by using the configuration options for enabling or disabling plug-ins for this desktop on the General settings page for a desktop.
IBM CMIS v1.1 General Availability
You can install and use CMIS for FileNet Content Manager Version 1.1 and CMIS for Content Manager Version 1.1 that supports the OASIS CMIS v1.1 specification leveraging Apache Open CMIS v0.14.0.
  • Users can access IBM CMIS v1.1 landing /ping page to get the version information and binding URLs.
  • Administrators can access IBM CMIS v1.1 landing /ping page to get the status, version, and authenticate to display the list of repositories.
  • Administrators can check the repository access with additional and more preferred 'Browser' Binding (in addition to Atom and WS-Security).
Configuration Tool repository updated
CMIS for FileNet Content Manager Version 1.1 and CMIS for Content Manager Version 1.1 are added to the repository type selections. Administrators are still able to select CMIS for FileNet Content Manager Version 1.0 and CMIS for Content Manager Version 1.0 as repository types.
IBM Daeja ViewONE Virtual viewer features
  • Administrators can configure the default for saving redacted content by specifying whether to save redacted content as a new document or allow users to determine how readacted content is saved by default.

    For more information about configuring the default for saving redacted content, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27043272.

  • Annotations for IBM Content Manager documents can be stored natively using a new application application/vnd.ibm.v1json MIME type and format. Adding the new MIME type to an IBM Content Manager repository enables support for all of the annotation features in the Daeja ViewONE Virtual viewer.

    For more information about using the new MIME type, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27047808.

What’s new for developers?

SamplePlugin must be loaded before you load SampleMobilePlugin
IBM Content Navigator provides two sample plug-ins, SamplePlugin and SampleMobilePlugin. If you try to register and configure the SampleMobilePlugin plug-in first, an error occurs. You must register and configure the SamplePlugin plug-in before you can register and configure the SampleMobilePlugin plug-in.
Sample User Column Settings plug-in
For IBM FileNet Content Manager repositories, by configuring the User Column Settings plug-in, users can select which properties to display in the Browse view, in what order, and whether to display the properties in the Details view, the Magazine view, or both. You can use the sample jar file UserColumnSettingsPlugin.jar, or extend the sample plug-in.
For more information about configuring the User Column Settings plug-in, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27047785.
External Data Services (EDS) for IBM Content Manager OnDemand repository searches are now supported
Previously, External Data Services for repository searches, add document, and edit properties was supported for IBM FileNet P8 repositories and IBM Content Manager repositories. Now, External Data Services for repository searches, add document, and edit properties is also supported for IBM Content Manager OnDemand repositories.
IBM CMIS v1.1 General Availability
Developers can now leverage the Open CMIS Server Plugins Framework that allows a CMIS server to be treated as an open service platform they can extend and change as needed.
For more information refer to the developers guide https://github.com/cmisdocs/ServerDevelopmentGuideV2.

Features and solutions introduced in Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 6

The following APARs for Daeja 4.1.5 are included in this fixpack: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27046739.

What’s new for users?
Java and Applets
Due to changes made in the Oracle JRE, the minimum IBM Content Navigator requirement for Java 8 update74, 1.8.0_74, is 2.0.3 Fix Pack 6. 
Using Box Share to share your documents
If your administrator enabled Box Share, you can select a document to share, and IBM Content Navigator creates a link to the specific version of the document. You can send the link to other people if you specify one or more email addresses. Anyone with the link can access the document.

You can share a document if you have permission to edit or view the document. If you have edit access, you can share a document and can update the share options regardless of who shared the document. If you have view access, you can share a document and can update the share options for documents that you shared, but cannot update the share options for documents that someone else shared.

Using Box Copy to copy your documents to Box
If your administrator has enabled Box Copy, you can copy items to a Box repository, or copy items from a Box repository. You can select a document, multiple documents, or a folder to copy, and then select the repository and folder to copy the items to. When copying a single document from a Box repository, you have the option to delete the document from the Box repository after the copy completes. When copying a single document from a Box repository, you have the option to select a document in a FileNet Content Manager repository and check in the document from Box as a new version of that document.

When you copy a document from Box to a FileNet Content Manager repository or an IBM Content Manager repository, if the destination folder has an associated entry template, the entry template is applied to the document.

Cross-repository search now includes Box repositories
When you create a cross-repository search, you can now select a Box repository as one of the repositories to be searched. To search a Box repository, text search criteria is required. For property search criteria, you can search by creation date or modified date. For more information about using cross-repository searches with a Box repository, see Searching across IBM Content Navigator repositories that include Box repositories.
Sync client is now available for Mac OS X

  1. Enable task manager in the administrative tool Settings.
  2. For the Box repository for sharing, and set the Share administrator.
  3. For a FileNet Content Manager repository, set the Task manager connection ID, enable Box Share. When you save this configuration setting, an add-on is installed on the repository. Box Share is supported on FileNet Content Manager Version 5.2.0 or later.
  4. For an IBM Content Manager repository, set the Task manager connection ID, enable Box Share, and select the item types that you want users to be able to share. When you save this configuration setting, the classes that you selected are modified on the repository.
  5. For the desktop, enable Box Share, select the Box repository for sharing, and configure whether to allow users to edit the email address to send from when sharing a document.

Important: If the authenticating repository for the desktop is an IBM Content Manager repository, ensure that the IBM Content Manager users are also LDAP users.

For more information about Box Share, see Integrating IBM Content Navigator with Box.

Enabling Box Copy
You can enable Box Copy for a FileNet Content Manager repository, or an IBM Content Manager repository. To enable Box Copy, complete the following steps:
  1. For the desktop, ensure that you connected a Box repository.
  2. For a FileNet Content Manager repository, enable Box Copy.
  3. For a Content Manager repository, enable Box Copy.

For more information about Box Copy, see Integrating IBM Content Navigator with Box.

Configuring Box as the authenticating repository
You can now use a Box repository as the authenticating repository for a desktop.
Configuring the Email mapping plug-in
The Email mapping plug-in provides a service that returns an email address that is associated with an IBM Content Navigator user. If you enable a desktop and repository for Box Share, a mapping of user IDs and email addresses is required so that the user’s email address can be displayed and used to send the link to the document. For more information about how to set up the mapping, see Configuring the Email mapping plug-in.
Enabling teamspace deletion
Previously, to enable teamspace deletion, you specified a task manager user ID and password for teamspace deletion. This configuration setting has been changed. Now, you must specify a task manager connection administrator for the desktop. The task manager connection administrator user ID and password is used for teamspace deletion and Box Share.
Restricting searches to search for document item types only
For IBM Content Manager repositories, new configuration options for Searches can be used to restrict searches to search for document item types only, so folders are not included in search results. By default, the Allow search on option is set to include both documents and folders, but you can change it to Documents, and the Default search type option is also changed to Documents. The settings are applied to both web client searches and IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office searches.
Changing the delimiter for IBM FileNet Content Manager multi-value string properties
For IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office, you can use a new configuration option to specify the delimiter to use to separate values for multi-value string properties. By default, the delimiter character is a comma (,). However, this restricted users from entering a value that contained a comma. To resolve this problem, you can set the Delimiter for multi-value string properties option to another delimiter character, such as a semi-colon (;).
New non-transactional datasource was added for taskmanager configuration
Note: The application server can not load IBM Content Navigator if the Configure the Task Manager Component task is not ran during installation or upgrade to 2.0.3 Fix Pack 6. See Installing or updating IBM Content Navigator, step 6-B.
What’s new for developers?

New property for the clientContext object to send the parent folder ID to an external data service
When the current action is addItem, and a parent folder is selected for the item, the clientContext object now includes the parentFolderId parameter and the value of the selected parent folder ID.

The parentFolderId parameter is not included in the clientContext object when a parent folder is not selected, or when the current action is not addItem.

IBM Content Manager version attribute name change from version to icn_sys_version
If your custom plug-in references the version attribute, you must change the references to use the new attribute name: icn_sys_version. The name change allows you to create a custom attribute that is named version that does not conflict with the reserved attribute that is named icn_sys_version.

To prevent conflicts between custom attribute names and system attributes names, avoid using the following Content Manager system attribute aliases: itemID, idValue, icn_sys_version, modifiedTimestamp, modifiedBy, createdTimestamp, createdBy, aclName, semanticType, mimeType, contentSize.

Accessing the HttpServletResponse that is passed to the target service
The wrapResponse method was added to the PluginResponseFilter class. This method provides the developer with access to all aspects of the response sent back from the service that is filtered. It wraps the HttpServletResponse that is passed to the target service. The base action code that processes request filters calls getServletResponseWrapper which gets the HttpServletResponse that was wrapped by wrapResponse and returned in the parameter of return type PluginServletResponseWrapper that extends HttpServletRequestWrapper.
Changes to the Java API reference
The Sync Favorite feature was removed, so the following methods are deprecated as of version 2.0.3.6:
  • com.ibm.ecm.configuration.FavoriteConfig.getSyncDevices() method

What’s new for developers?
Automatically opening items that are returned from search links
A new search URL parameter autoOpenItem can be used with the parameter autoRunSearch. When the user opens a search link that includes the parameters autoRunSearch=true and autoOpenItem=true , the search runs automatically, and if the search returns a single item, then that item is automatically opened. You can also enable the item to automatically open by configuring a search template to run automatically when opened and include the parameter autoOpenItem=true in the search link. The item is automatically opened only from the search link, not in subsequent searches.
Features and solutions introduced in Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 4
What’s new for users?
Using Between and Not Between search operators on integer properties with a choice list
If your documents have an integer property with a choice list, you can search for documents where the value of the integer property is between a specified low number and high number.

For example, if you have documents with an integer property that is named Grade and a choice list of values from 0 to 100, you can search for documents where the Grade is between 90 and 100. You can also search for documents where the Grade is not between 0 and 60.

This feature is now supported for IBM FileNet Content Manager and CMIS repositories, in addition to IBM Content Manager repositories.

Filtering of drop-down lists in searches and property editors now match any part of the value in the list
If you are working with one of the following types of drop-down controls, you can use filtering to find any values that contain the term you enter:
  • List of search properties
  • List of search operators (not applicable to IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office)
  • Choice lists

For example, if you want to select a property in your property drop-down list that contains the term address, type address in the property field. The list will display only those properties that contain the term address, such as Street Address, Mailing Address, or Billing Address.

Searching by using the Is Empty or Is Not Empty operators with a multi-valued property
You can now search on a field using the Is Empty or the Is Not Empty operator if the property contains multiple values.

For example, if you want to know how many documents have been color coded, you can run a search on the Color Codes multi-valued property by using the Is Not Empty operator.

Searching by using the Is Empty or Is Not Empty operators with a multi-valued property is only supported if you are connected to an IBM FileNet Content Manager repository.

Important: In some instances, IBM CMIS for FileNet Content Manager returns inconsistent results when you search by using the Is Empty or Is Not Empty operators with multi-valued properties.
Support for IBM Content Manager annotations in IBM Daeja ViewONE Virtual Viewer
The IBM Daeja ViewONE Virtual viewer will now allow existing CM annotations to be displayed with the document. New annotations may also be created and saved with your CM document.
  • The following IBM Daeja ViewONE annotation types are not supported: CUSTOM, HIGHLIGHTPOLYGON, OPENPOLYGON, POLYGON, REDACT, and REDACTPOLYGON.
  • The following IBM Daeja ViewONE annotations fields are ignored: CREATEDATE, MODIFIEDDATE, CREATEID, and MODIFIEDID.
  • When using this engine to convert between IBM Daeja ViewONE format and IBM Content Manager format, the rendering might differ for sticky notes and the color and transparency for oval, rectangle, highlight, note, and text annotations.
Using IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office to update permissions of a document or folder in an IBM Content Manager repository

  • Add a document that uses a Content Manager entry template
  • Check in a document that uses a Content Manager entry template
  • Change the properties of a document or folder from the Details pane
  • Change the properties of a document by using the View/Modify Permissions button on the ribbon bar
The web client displays a status window when you download multiple files or convert files to PDF
Previously, if you downloaded one or more files as PDF files or downloaded multiple files, the web client gave no indication that it was processing your request. If processing took a significant amount of time, it was not clear whether the web client was actually converting the files to PDF or creating a ZIP file. Now, the web client displays a status dialog when you download a file as PDF or download multiple files. If the request takes too long, you have the option to cancel it.
What’s new for administrators?
IBM CMIS for Content Manager supports and detects multi-valued attributes on your IBM Content Manager repository
You can now enable IBM CMIS for Content Manager to support and detect multi-valued attributes on your IBM Content Manager repository. The multiValuePropertyEnabled configuration property enables or disables the support of multi-valued attributes in IBM CMIS for Content Manager.

What’s new for developers?
Modifying the list of available operators to display in the search form
The sample plug-in for IBM Content Navigator now includes sample files for writing response filters to hide search operators. When a user opens a saved search or defines a new search, IBM Content Navigator provides a list of available operators for selection in the search criteria. If you want to hide any of these operators from the user, you can write response filters for your plug-in. These response filters can return a modified list of available operators in the response JSON for the OpenContentClass service and the OpenSearchTemplate service. The following sample files can be used as examples:
  • SamplePluginOpenClassResponseFilter.java
  • SamplePluginOpenSearchTemplateResponseFilter.java

For general information about sample files, see “Samples for IBM Content Navigator” in IBM Knowledge Center: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEUEX_2.0.3/com.ibm.developingeuc.doc/eucdv001.htm.

Modifying the default print margins
The sample plug-in for IBM Content Navigator now includes a sample file for updating the default print margins. When a user opens the print applet, the default print margins are retrieved. If you implement a custom response filter, you can modify the values of the default print margins, and the print applet caches the new default values. After you deploy your plug-in, a user must restart the browser to obtain the new default values. The following sample file can be used as an example:
  • SamplePluginUpdateDefaultPrintMarginsResponseFilter.java

For general information about sample files, see “Samples for IBM Content Navigator” in IBM Knowledge Center: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEUEX_2.0.3/com.ibm.developingeuc.doc/eucdv001.htm.

For more information about improving search performance, see "Improving performance in IBM Content Navigator when the items that you search have many versions in an IBM Content Manager repository" at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27044524.
Cross-repository search has fewer restrictions
Previously, IBM Content Navigator did not allow you to map an IBM Content Manager alphanumeric string property, alphabetic string property, or numeric string property to a special type of string property, such as GUID (globally unique identifier) or ID (for CMIS repositories). An error was returned because you cannot map incompatible data types. Now, you can create the mapping in IBM Content Navigator because the data types are compatible. For more information about compatible data types for cross-repository searches, see "IBM Content Navigator cross-repository search has fewer restrictions when you map compatible data types" at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27044423.
External data services (EDS) and saved searches
When the application uses EDS and users open a saved search, the search criteria properties and the child component attributes are sent to EDS. However, any search criteria properties that are empty are not sent to EDS. Also, if a property is specified in the search criteria more than once, only the first instance of that property value is sent to EDS. For more information about EDS and search criteria, see "Search criteria behavior for EDS implementations of dependent choice lists" at http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEUEX_2.0.3/com.ibm.developingeuc.doc/eucap023.htm.

The Save option is enabled for IBM Content Manager users in IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
In previous releases, the Save option in IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office was disabled when you were connected to an IBM Content Manager repository. Staring with Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 2, the Save option is enabled for checked out IBM Content Manager documents that have either of the following version policy attributes:
  • Always Create
  • Prompt to Create
Important: If a user selects Save from IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office, the current version of the file is updated on the IBM Content Manager repository. If you want to prevent this from happening, you can hide the Save option for the appropriate desktops in your environment.

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.

Features and solutions introduced in Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1
Improvements to the IBM Navigator Sync
IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1 includes two improvements for the IBM Navigator Sync client (previously called the IBM Content Navigator Sync client):
  • Simplified setup during installation
    When users install the IBM Navigator Sync client, the sync folder is automatically set to the following location:
    • C:\Users\<username>\Documents\IBM Sync
    If users want to change the default sync folder, they can click Advanced settings during installation.
  • Ability to manage preferences across IBM Navigator Sync clients

    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.

Counters for system monitoring
IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1 includes counters for monitoring IBM Content Navigator components. If you have IBM System Dashboard for Enterprise Content Management installed in your environment, the IBM Content Navigator counters are displayed in the dashboard.
For more information about the counters that are provided for the IBM Content Navigator components, see the following technotes on the IBM Support site:
Improvements for IBM FileNet Content Manager workflows
In previous releases of IBM Content Navigator, user's short names were displayed in the Process Work Item and Track Work Item pages. In IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1, the short names are replaced by the user's display names in the following locations:
  • On the Summary tab of the Process Work Item page
  • On the History tab of the Track Work Item page
  • In the Started by field of the Process Work Item page and the Track Work Item page
New administration option for IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office
By default, the Save option is displayed in IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office. However, the Save option is always disabled when you are connected to an IBM Content Manager repository, because the repository does not support saving changes to the document without checking the document in.

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.

Plug-in to address issues with teamspace security
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.

The fixes that were provided in IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 7 listed below are included in this fix pack.

This fix pack contains fixes for the following APARs:

Table 1. Fix list for IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 8
APAR Description
  (IBM Content Navigator, IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office, IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft SharePoint, IBM Content Navigator Sync, and IBM CMIS users) InstallAnywhere CVE-2016-4560 security issue

With this fix, the issue is resolved.

IO23257 (IBM Content Navigator users) When multiple users are working on the same workflow inbasket, the Get Next work item action may show a performance degradation because it has to determine which item is next in the list of unprocessed documents.

With this fix, the performance is improved.

IO23622 (IBM Content Navigator users) Some PDF files containing images render with the images being duplicated or shifted.

With this fix, the images appear correctly.

IO23828 (IBM Content Navigator users) The color contrast ratio of some controls needs to be improved.

With this fix, the color contrast is improved.

IO23882 (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) Content Manager users are not able to enter a date with a time value as a search criteria for a datetime property.

With this fix, users can enter a date with a time value to search for a specific date with time criteria.

IO24188 (IBM Content Navigator users) There is no facility to localize the desktop application name.

With this fix, the capability to localize the Application name is provided.

IO24253 (IBM Content Navigator users) The interface focus is not placed on the search tab after opening a search.

With this fix, the focus is set to the search tab.

IO24267 (IBM Content Navigator users) Sometimes the scroll bar slider is not at bottom of the scroll bar when paging to last page. This gives the appearance that more search results may exist.

With this fix, the scroll bar slider is at the bottom of the scroll bar when paging to the end of the results.

IO24281 (IBM Content Navigator users) When using Daeja ViewONE Virtual, users are experiencing delays when rendering some images because some static viewer resources are reloaded.

With this fix, the viewer will load static resources from cache.

IO24290 (IBM Content Navigator users) The Polish translation for the CIWEB1157 add document error message error “The item cannot be added to the repository” is incorrect.

With this fix, the error message is corrected.

IO24321 (IBM FileNet P8 users) In a P8 teamspace, it is not possible to drag and drop a file from a subfolder to the root folder even though the logged in user has permission to do so.

With this fix, the file can be dropped on the root folder.

IO24371 (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) When adding a 201st subfolder, a permission error is generated when retrieving the next page of sub-folders.

With this fix, the error does not occur.

IO24376 (IBM Content Navigator users) When an entry template with a property layout is applied, and EDS assigns a choice list that has a null or empty string ("") label for a choice in the list, the choice list is not applied to the property.

With this fix, the choice list is applied.

IO24395 (IBM Content Navigator users) If the search template contains a mix of text and property search criteria, the search criteria order is not preserved when opening the search template.

With this fix, the search order is maintained.

IO24397 (IBM Content Navigator users) The ecm.widget.AddContentItemPropertiesPane.setPropertyValue function fails to set the value of a property that has a choice list.

With this fix, the property value is set.

IO24399 (IBM Content Navigator users) When exporting search results, the "download" property will also show up as null.

With this fix, the "download" property is exported.

IO24410 (IBM CMIS for Content Manager users) When Websphere Application Security is enabled and SSO is not enabled in Content Manager, the CMIS login action results in an ICM7172 error. This is due to CMIS assuming when WebSphere Application Security is enabled when the login is using SSO.

With this fix, the login succeeds.

A new parameter is added in cmpathservice.properties:

applicationSecurityEnabledWithoutSSO= {true|false|null}

This parameter should be set to true when application security is enabled in WebSphere but SSO is not enabled in Content Manager. In this configuration, the user will be authenticated by WebSphere and then authenticated by Content Manager. This parameter identifies this special configuration so that CMIS will pass the password to Content Manager for authentication.

If applicationSecurityEnabledWithoutSSO is set to false or not set, null, then CMIS the configuration must meet one of the following conditions:

1) application security is not enabled and SSO is not enabled in Content Manager. In this case, authentication is not done by WebSphere and basic authentication should include user name and password. CMIS will extract the user name and password and pass them on to Content Manager for authentication.

2) SSO is configured in both CMIS and Content Manager. As a required step to enable SSO, application security is also enabled. In this case, the user is authenticated by WebSphere. When CMIS detects that the user is already authenticated by WebSphere (principle is available with a valid user), only the user name is passed to Content Manager for logon and the password will not be passed.

IO24417 (IBM Content Navigator users) In the Content Manager Workflow Context Menus section, administrators are unable to change the workflow attachment document and folder context menus.

With this fix, the administrator can change the context menus.

IO24419 (IBM Content Navigator users) After selection of the dependent choice lists, certain properties become mandatory during the runtime, but the Save button gets enabled before all the mandatory properties contain a value.

With this fix, the Save button is not enabled until all required properties contain values.

IO24430 (IBM Content Navigator users) When using a bookmark and the user is prompted to login, the focus not set to the User name field in login pane.

With this fix, the focus is set to the User name field.

IO24435 (IBM Content Navigator users) In some languages, the custom annotation tooltip tokens were translated resulting in the tag values to not appear.

With this fix, the tokens are not translated for the Creation Date and Creator appear as expected.

IO24441 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When a document with no content has a value of 0 for the Content Size property (not typical), some of the document property values are not returned when the properties are edited.

With this fix, all of the property values are retrieved.

IO24445 (IBM Content Navigator users) The browser context menu is not displayed when editing the document properties in the viewer window.

With this fix, the browser context menu is displayed.

IO24449 (IBM Content Navigator users) PDF document print quality is not sufficient for customers to use the resulting documents.

With this fix, the printing of PDF documents is improved.

IO24453 (IBM CMIS for OnDemand users) When users attempt to retrieve certain documents with the OnDemand Enablement Kit version 9.5.x, the document is reported as not found.

With this fix, the user is able to change the expired password.

IO24476 (IBM CMIS for Content Manager users) When an object is created in a text searchable document item type and the item type has other parts (e.g. ICMBASE) rather than ICMBASETEXT, the object will not be enabled for text search. This is due to either CMIS standard or IBM CMIS for Content Manager does not provide the option for customer whether they prefer to enable text search for the new object or not, IBM CMIS for Content Manager will not enable text search in the case.

With this fix, IBM CMIS for Content Manager provides a new parameter for customers to decide whether they want to enable text search for this kind of new object.

preferCreateTextSearchableDoc = {true|false}

If preferCreateTextSearchableDoc is set to true, then if the item type is a text searchable item type and has a ICMBASETEXT part, the content file of the new object will be put in the ICMBASETEXT part and the object is enabled text search.

If preferCreateTextSearchableDoc is set to false or not set, null, then prefer to create object in ICMBASE part if the item type has ICMBASE part. This is the default behavior.

IO24482 (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) When adding attachments to Content Manager, the size of the name property is not considered causing the user to receive an error.

With this fix, the maximum length of the name property is adhered to so the add is successful.

With this fix, a configuration option was added to allow the previous behavior.

By using a response filter, custom code can add the variable "useStartsWithChoiceListFilter" to the desktop configuration. This causes the search to revert to the "start with" filtering.

This desktop setting is honored by IBM Content Navigator and IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office in the following areas:
  • Property editor: choice lists (including entry template choice lists)
  • Search builder: property lists, operator lists, and choice lists
  • Search runtime: operator lists and choice lists
IO24131 (IBM Content Navigator users) When editing the layout of a WorkplaceXT entry template copied or converted for the first time, the layout editor starts with the class properties, honoring the order and settings of the properties coming from the repository.

With this fix, the sample SSOLogoutPlugin redirects the user to the SSO logout page then the site login page.

IO24244 (IBM Content Manager users) Historically, all ECM clients have treated the first document part as the base content part. In some cases, document model items may have a custom part that appears first in the parts list but is not intended to be the base content part. When the base parts of document are not same, normally the return mimetype is application/binary. This is not consistent with the actual mimetype of the part being returned.

With this fix, the mimetype of the first ICMBASE* part type or, if no ICMBASE* part type, then the first custom part with semantic type ICMBASE, will be treated as the base content part. The mimetype of this base part is returned.

IO24021 (IBM Content Navigator users) When a user logs out of an IBM Content Navigator desktop under one desktop browser window, while another IBM Content Navigator desktop window opened to the same IBM Content Navigator server is actively working in a repository, both browser windows may become unresponsive while waiting for the conflicting requests to complete.

Opening multiple browser windows to the same IBM Content Navigator server is documented as not supported. Multiple browser windows opened to the same IBM Content Navigator server share the same cookies and server session object. Users should only open one browser window at a time to an IBM Content Navigator server.

With this fix, the actions in both windows will complete. The user may see "session expired" prompts, warnings, or errors in the window that was actively working in a repository.

IO24023 (IBM Content Navigator users) When using the Preview action, or HTML Conversion Viewer, in some cases (where Outside In performs the conversion), the generated HTML would not use UTF-8 character encoding. As a result, content containing extended characters would not display correctly.

IO24063 (IBM Content Navigator users) When a property value has been erased or cleared from an EDS property field with dependent properties, the previous value is still passed in the JSON on subsequent EDS lookups.

With this fix, the value is cleared.

IO24065 (IBM Content OnDemand users) Documents with a mimetype of application/line are only recognized if the OnDemand document type is LINE.

With this fix, the additional document types of SCS and DJDE are also recognized having a mimetype of application/line.

IO24173 (IBM Content Navigator users) Box co-administrators are not allowed to configure the share.
Note: Changing the value of the Share administrator on a Box repository will result in shares added with the prior administrator to be lost. The share icon will still display next to previously shared icons, but when you select the Share or Delete Share action, the icon will be removed. To prevent shares added with the prior administrator from being lost, perform the following:
  • Log into Box as the prior administrator and find the Shares folder. It should be at the top level of folders.
  • Add the new share administrator as a collaborator to this folder with Editor rights.

With this fix, Box co-admins can be configured as the share administrative user.

IO24176 (IBM Content Navigator and Datacap users) Logging into a Datacap repository fails because the user's configuration for the Datacap plug-in can not be retrieved.

With this fix, the hidden values are changed.

IO23702 (IBM Content Navigator users) Config tool generateconfig command fails with appedition flag set to default even when the deployment type is set to standard. The expected behaviour is to use the flag appedition with actual values for the deployment type is to WebSphere managed node or cluster.

With this fix, when using the appedition flag, the actual values for deploytype for managed node or cluster will be used.

IO23704 (IBM Content Manager users) When a user searches across all classes for Documents, and a system property such as Created By is used for the search criteria, instances of document model part items may be returned in search results.

With this fix, a new option in the Search tab of the Content Manager repository configuration can be used to limit all classes Document searches to return only documents (excluding parts), saved searches, and entry templates.

IO23725 (IBM Content Navigator users) File tracker is not cleaning up temporary directories after files are checked in.

With this fix, the directories are deleted after files are checked in with the 'Delete local file' option enabled by updating the JRE to a minimum of 1.7.0_76 or 1.8.0_40.

IO23754 (IBM Content Navigator users) In an SSO environment, the desktop reloads when a plug-in action is executed after the server session has expired from inactivity.

IO22888 (IBM Content Manager Workflow users) In the workflow step processor, the user must specify the "Owner" property before allowing the routing of the document to a different work list.

With this fix, not all users have the privilege to set the "Owner" property, so this is now optional for routing documents.

IO22905 (IBM Content Navigator users) When a user clicks on a document bookmark link that maps to the browser as the viewer, the content is not transferred directly to the browser. Instead, a blank window opens to handle the document.

With this fix, the viewer mapping is checked on the server side to see if the data should be streamed directly to the browser. This eliminates a blank page opening to handle the document.

IO22912 (IBM Content Navigator users) When using Internet Explorer v10, the custom Help page is populated in a new window but does not show the vertical scroll bar when needed.

With this fix, the vertical scrollbar in the help window is enabled.

With this fix, the teamspace security is set to inherit from the folder.

The customer needs to rerun the Teamspace Update Plugin or delete the update flag folders in Content Engine and use the IBM Content Navigator admin to resave the repository. The update changes the teamspace security to inherit from parent.

IO22763 (IBM FileNet P8 users) Users are able to create entry templates with Workplace XT in one object store that store docs in another object store. With IBM Content Navigator an error occurs when trying to create the same entry templates. The user receives the same error when trying to convert their Workplace XT cross object store entry templates.

With this fix, an IBM Content Navigator entry template that adds items to a different P8 repository can be saved.

IO22778 (IBM Content Navigator users) When the application is deployed behind a reverse proxy, Daeja ViewONE Virtual may fail to access its mid-tier services. This is due to AJAX requests trying to access the “behind the proxy” hostname, which is not accessible from the client.

With this fix, customers have the ability to configure one or more pairs of internal/external host replacement strings.

To resolve, go to IBM Content Navigator configuration ViewONE settings. On the Virtual tab, add the following in the custom settings (sequence # is optional):

internalHost<sequence #>=<<url as seen by ICN mid-tier (i.e. on WebSphere)>>
externalHost<sequence #>=<<url as seen by the browser>>

The new settings allow, optionally, for multiple hosts to be set up using a numerical sequence. Such as ex: internalHost1/externalHost1, internalHost2/externalHost2, etc.

IO22787 (IBM CMIS for Content Manager users) If CMIS is configured with WS-Security authentication, when an error occurs during web services request handling, the connection from CMIS to Content Manager EE is not being released from the current thread. This causes subsequent requests to fail.

With this fix, the connection is released from the current thread.

IO22814 (IBM Content Navigator users) If an EDS service applies different changes to properties when an item is added than it does when an item is edited, and an item is added using an IBM Content Navigator 2.0.3 entry template with a property layout, the EDS service applies edit item changes because the client EDS request clientContext.action is "editProperties" instead of "addItem".

With this fix, the client EDS request is for "addItem" and the EDS service applies the correct property changes for an item add.

IO22816 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When users attempt to print a document with multiple content elements and each content element has the same name, only one content element will print.

With this fix, all the content elements will print even though they have the same name.

With this fix, the Class Name property is not cleared.

IO22875 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When an item is moved from one folder to another within a teamspace, the teamspace security is removed from the document..

With this fix, the teamspace security remains with the document when the document is moved.

IO22877 (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) When security is set on a document and the user saved the file locally after a checkout, the security resets to the class defaults when checking in the document. When the user access the document again, the get an error "You do not have the appropriate permissions to check in this document."

With this fix, the security on the document is not reset to the class defined security and the user does not receive an error.

IO22878 (IBM Content Navigator users) When checking out and downloading a document using File Tracker, the user is always prompted to select a program to open the document when the 'Open file automatically' option is selected.

With this fix, if the mimetype is known by Windows, the file is opened automatically after saving to the local disk. Otherwise, the user is prompted to select a program to open the file.

IO22889 (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) When users check out a document, a Specified Cast is not valid error appears when checking in the document.

With this fix, the error does not appear to users.

IO22899 (IBM Content Navigator for Microsoft Office users) When executing a search from a teamspace, if the user modifies the search criteria, the search uses the original search criteria.

With this fix, the modified search criteria will be used for the teamspace search.

IO22907 (IBM Collaboration Services users) When users select the view Documents pending my approvals, an error occurs and the reviewer cannot see documents that are pending approval.

With this fix, the error does not occur and the reviewer can see those documents.

IO22908 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When editing permissions for a user or group, if "No access" is selected then "Reader" or "Author" is selected, some Deny permissions toggled on by the "No access" choice remain toggled on.

With this fix, any Deny permissions that were toggled on by the "No access" choice are toggled off when a different choice is selected from the list.

IO22919 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When the user attempts to open a federated document with annotations, if an annotation creator is no longer in LDAP, then the document can not be opened.

With this fix, the document can still be opened, even if the user can not be determined, without seeing error dialog first.

IO22920 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When users run Workplace XT searches, the results do not show values for hidden properties.

With this fix, search results that include a column for a hidden property will display the values for that property.

IO22938 (IBM FileNet P8 users) When modifying Document or Folder inherited permissions, the inherited permissions for the other type are modified when the Reader, Author, or Owner security category is selected.

With this fix, only the inherited permissions for the selected type are modified. 

IT05726 (IBM Content Analysis users) When WebSphere 7.x users make some server requests, the plug-in does not return a response.

With this fix, a response is returned.

LO81422 (IBM FileNet Collaboration Services users) When updating a document in Connections that has a new required property added after the document was created, users are unable to "Save as Draft". This occurs because the reserved version needed to be filled with the required properties before the checkout. The required properties will also be applied to the draft after the checkout.

With this fix, the user can save the document as a draft.

LO83399 (IBM FileNet Collaboration Services users) Users are not able to move or copy a document from a QuickrLibrary root folder to a subfolder. This occurs when the move or copy operation's source folder is the QuickrLibrary root folder. The document cannot be found because Quickr needs to use a virtual root folder.

With this fix, the copy or a move from the QuickrLibrary root folder is successful.

PJ42945 (IBM CMIS for FileNet users) When building the query, the unsupported keyword DISTINCT was ignored when placed in a query string.

With this fix, if DISTINCT is used, the user gets the correct error message.

PJ42981 (IBM CMIS for FileNet users) When trying to download files using the Chrome browser, an error occurs and prevents the user from downloading the file.

With this fix, the error does not occur and the user can download the file.

PJ43040 (IBM FileNet Collaboration Services users) An error occurs in a Connections Community Library when the user clicks on the Versions tab of a document and the document (one or more versions) has no content.

With this fix, the user does not receive an error for documents with no content.

Fixes included in IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1

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:

Table 8. Fix list for IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Fix Pack 1
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 P8 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.

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.
