Corrected bugs 

Jira ticket number

Description

CRED-13495

There was an issue where the standard service task "Load values of SystemProperties into process map" did not handle binary properties correctly. This has been fixed.

CRED-20126

In Smart ID Self-Service, searches were executed immediately when the form was opened. This could lead to errors about too many search results before a filter could be set. Now, when a search button is configured with filters, the search will be executed by clicking the search button. If filters are hidden, the search will be executed automatically.

CRED-20846

In Smart ID Self-Service tables and Open Task lists, the date was sometimes not shown in local formatting. This has been fixed.

CRED-21740

There were some issues and configuration mismatches around pre- and post-login processes. This has been fixed. See Configure a pre-login process for Identity Manager Operator, Configure pre-login processes for Smart ID Self-Service and Set up authentication profile in Identity Manager for more information. Also see Upgrade Smart ID Identity Manager from 5.2.0 to 5.2.1 for details.

CRED-21763

There was an issue where the configuration of zipUnpacker.maxCompressionRatio was not respected in all places. This has been fixed.

CRED-21798

There was a problem where HTTP clients could sometimes not be deleted because of references in processes were incorrectly detected. This has been fixed.

CRED-21940

There was a problem when logging with the process tracker, where the process names were often not shown because process name and process ID were too long due to using UUIDs. Process IDs are now generated with the DBGenerator again so that process names are logged in most cases.

CRED-22014

There was a problem with the service task "Remove Entity from data map" in combination with the BPMN editor in Identity Manager Admin. This has been fixed.

CRED-22015

There was an issue where the tenant logo was not loaded when having multiple tenants. This has been fixed.

CRED-22327

The service task "Mobile App: Install Certificates Into Android OS" is now more resilient towards communication errors.

CRED-22461

There was an issue where “update_db” would not correctly update Spring Batch and Scheduled Jobs related tables when upgrading to 5.2. This has been fixed.

CRED-22488

There was a problem where Juel-Expressions were not resolved in the task "Modify roles automatically". This has been fixed.

CRED-22592

Logging on system properties parsing has been improved.

CRED-22655

In Identity Manager Operator there was an issue in searches where different thumbnails, for example for picture and signature, should be shown but the same thumbnail was used for picture and signature. This has been fixed.

CRED-22706

There was an issue where the authentication method selection in the Identity Manager Operator system properties settings would also affect Identity Manager Admin. This has been fixed.

CRED-22800

There was an issue with Smart ID Self-Service, where pre-login processes were sometimes shown and sometimes not when refreshing the login page multiple times. This has been fixed.

CRED-22810

There was an issue where the SAML AuthnRequest was rejected as being from an unknown ISSUER when the Identity Manager alias was different from the ENTITYID in the service-provider-metadata xml file. This has been fixed.

CRED-22819

When using Visual Mobile ID, there was an error when calling the contentprovider URL from Hermod. This has been fixed.
