Changes with Gentics Content.Node 5.1.4

• Fixed ProxyServlet Exception (invalid uri / invalid query) which occurred when performing an edit operation on a content tag from Gentics Portal.Node in Aloha mode.
• Fixed UI issue within the tagtype edit view. If a part is defined as liveeditable the editable checkbox will be enabled as well now.
• Fixed an error (SGB) that occurs if the validation the feature is turned on and a tag is edited in the context of Gentics Portal.Node / Aloha.
• Removed versioned publishing, which does not work reliable.
• Performance enhancement and fixed timeout for Live-Editor page-save. The performance enhancement concerns pages with many live-editable tags. Tests showed, that saving a page with 260 live-editable tags took 35 seconds originally, which was reduced to 6 seconds if the page had changes, or 3 seconds if the page had no changes. The timeout-fix was made so that no timeout will occur, if saving a page should take longer than 30 seconds.
• Fixed item-list column resizing in IE When certain columns in an item-list, such as the one for the name of a page, were wider than the base column width, the column was first rendered with the correct (wider) size, but collapsed immediately to the base column width when the mouse was moved to hover over the item-list.
• Fixed assistant frame. Aloha will now also add history entries to the assistant frame.
• Fixed bug in overviews over pages, which were selected and ordered individually, that prevented correct rendering of pages.
• Fixed NoClassDefFoundError during validation of style attributes.
• Added render messages to the Aloha settings, such that they will be logged in Aloha, when the page is rendered. The log level can be configured by setting it to log4j.logger.com.gentics.aloha in nodelog.properties.
• Fixed Rendering of Velocity Parts: Velocity must not be rendered in edit mode. That means that if a Tag is rendered e.g. like $cms.page.tags.test or a Part is rendered via $cms.tag.parts.test it will NOT be editable. If Tags/Parts must be editable inside Tags that render Velocity, the Notation must be used (like in the pre-Aloha Era).
• Fixed Bug that prevented overviews to be republished when a page was published using time management and multithreaded publishing was used.
• Fixed navigation parttype. The navigation parttype will now apply correct sorting over ALL objects.

Changes with Gentics Content.Node 5.1.3

• Manual change for updating the JDK version

  Please perform this step before performing the update of Gentics Content Node.This change can be omitted it the installation alredy uses JDK 1.6.0_14.

  Examine the symlink /Node/java to check which jdk version is currently in use. Version 1.6.0_01 became incompatible with Gentics Content Node due to the JAXB Library version bundled with the JDK. To update the JDK version to 1.6.0_14, please download the update script and execute it as a shell script. The script will ask for the Node folder (defaults to "/Node") and whether to use the 64bit version of the JDK (the default will be autodetected).
• Fixed rendering of pages that render information of other pages (like overviews, links to other pages, page-tags, ...): If the other page was modified but not yet published, the first page would publish the current data, but not the published data of the other page. This behaviour has been fixed now: When a page is published and renders information of other pages, it will always get the published version of the other page.
• Fixes CRSync NoClassDefFound RuntimeProfiler Exception The ProfilerServlet has a dependency on HttpServlet. The servlet-api is only on the classpath, if the RuntimeProfiler is used in the context of a webapp. A workaround is to specify the servlet-api.jar in the classpath of the CRSync command line.
• Added property .istag for objects to determine whether they are tags
• Fixed problem with custom streams which would not be displayed
• Fixed issues with page list when flapping the tree - the page list will now reclaim all available space
• Fixed unexpected behaviour in list of object properties of pages: Opening this list locked the page, but leaving with 'Back' button did not unlock

Changes with Gentics Content.Node 5.1.2

• Manual Change (when updating from 5.0.0 or older)

  If you attempt to update from Gentics Content.Node 5.0.0 or older, a special patch needs to be applied. Extract the patch file which can be donwloaded from http://www.gentics.com/Content.Node/infoportal/cms/changelog/gcn5_update_patch.tgz in /Node/.node:

  cd /Node/.node
  wget [URL_TO_gcn5_update_patch.tgz]
  tar xzf gcn5_update_patch.tgz
  // ! Delete file or change permissions otherwise the replacement of .node can't be executed by the auto update !
  rm gcn5_update_patch.tgz
  
  

  If you attempt to update without the patch, Gentics Content.Node won't recognize the latest update file as a valid update package and the update process will fail.

• Manual Change

  The PHP APC cache module must be enabled. Append the following settings to the /Node/etc/php/php.ini file.

  [APC]
  extension=apc.so
  apc.enabled=1
  apc.shm_size=128M
  apc.ttl=7200
  apc.user_ttl=7200
  apc.max_file_size=16M
  

• Performance Improvement: disabled output buffer for user images
• Performance Improvement: content files are now served with a fingerprint instead of the current timestamp, so that the browser-cache is used more effectively
• Performance Improvement: improved response times for viewing and editing pages
• Performance Improvement: Refactored the newline to html-break transformation of text part types. Some edge-cases of the old behaviour have been fixed. This change improves render-performance of pages in edit, preview and publish mode noticeably
• Performance Improvement: getCurrentTIme() is not called anymore if the RuntimeProfiler is not enabled
• Performance Improvement: parttypes are now cached, thus increasing render performance
• Performance Improvement: diff between page versions will now be handled in Java, thus increasing the performance
• Performance Improvement: added indices for id and contenttag_id to the ds_nodeversion table for improved performance
• Performance Improvement: improved IE6 JavaScript performance by ceaning up jQuery itemlist handlers
• Performance Improvement: The communication between PHP and the Java backend now happens via the native PHP Streaming API
• Security Improvement: Adds XSS checks for tagfill/page_save and folder/page/node/file properties. Also adds the "policy" field for TagParts.
• Security Improvement: improved security checks for serving images & files from the backend
• Security Improvement: improved various permission checks and change password mechanism
• New Feature: "no_userlist_on_startpage" hides user list on startpage for faster loading
• Fixed a problem with IE which didn't always show the resizable in itemlist columns.
• New changelog mechanism (unique change ids instead of build dates)
• Automatic update mechanism adapted for new Gentics Content.Node 5 package structure
• Deletion of tagtypes is now decoupled from the browser-request, so that an aborted browser-request doesn't leave tags in the system, that have references to the deleted tagtype
• Fixed errors in CR browser and tagmap list
• Fixes consistency check during a CRSync. The contentstatus table could not be created with a customized name
• Fixes JCS configuration. The cache stopped working after Gentics Portal Node was removed. This was because the system property that configured the location for the cache.ccf file did not get set by the portal node configuration setup code.
• Fixed a timing problem when deleting or taking pages offline while the publish process started
• Made isEditMode() and isPreviewMode() available for editing with Aloha
• Fixed XNL Function registry
• Fixed possible NPE for objects without NodeObject representations like construct categories

• Fixed incorrect information in publish log about pages being written to disk even if publishing to the filesystem is disabled
• Setting the page language will now trigger a dirtevent for all language variants
• Improved publish workflows and the page queue, which will now directly lead you to the page preview
• Fixed incorrect prompts on clicking the cancel button in the switch template dialog
