PI49076:

   Problem: ClearQuest Web users can not view stateless record types (like Customer) by using the REST URL, if the record's name includes a special character like question mark (?), forward slash (/), ampersand (&), etc ...

PI52885:

   Problem: When submitting a child record from a ClearQuest Web parent record, the pop-up window to save the record shows a parent/child controller which incorrectly shows two references, rather than one, to the parent record.

   Fix: When submitting a child record from a ClearQuest Web parent record, the pop-up window saving the child record now shows a parent/child controller with only one reference to the parent record.


PI53180:

   Problem: If a stateless ClearQuest record has a back-slash in its primary key field, showing the record in the 'List View' on a CQ Web form fails with an error.

   Fix: ClearQuest Web stateless records now show up in 'List View' even if there is a back-slash in its primary key field.


PI53572:

   Problem: If ClearQuest is configured with multiple LDAP SSL configurations each using a different key file, the keyfile from the first connection is cached.  The second connection may fail if using a keyfile different than the first connection.

   Fix: ClearQuest no longer caches the LDAP SSL keyfile information.  Connections succeed when configurations containing different keyfiles are used.


PI54350:

   Problem: When clicking on a ClearQuest Web REST URL which has a pound/hash/number (#) sign, you are not logged in automatically.  You must open a new browser tab to login.

PI55056:

   Problem: After creating a new ClearQuest Web record which had one of its fields inserted with a query search, expanding the folder from within the Navigator pane results in a "TypeError" error.  Contents in the folder cannot be retrieved either.

PI55636:

   Problem: When using ClearQuest OSLC, queryNavigatorDialog windows cannot be opened in an iframe due to the http response header X-Frame-Options = SAMEORIGIN.

   Fix: The header response is no longer included, so the queryNavigatorDialog now behaves like other ClearQuest OSLC response windows such as the selectionDialiog and creationDialog.


PI55723:

   Problem: In unexpected circumstances, excessive memory usage can cause a ClearQuest "OutOfMemory" error which may result in a crash.

   Fix: In these circumstances, ClearQuest Out of Memory conditions are now handled in such a way as to prevent a crash.


PI57188:

   Problem: ClearQuest Web performance can be very slow across a WAN (Wide Area Network).

   Fix: ClearQuest Web sessions no longer expire when creating or editing queries with certain record types like "Attachment".

   Problem: A back reference list field may fail to validate correctly when the load of the field has been deferred.  The issue only happens when the back reference field behavior is mandatory.

   Fix: A back reference list field will be automatically loaded if needed for validation.
