Upgrading to v9.2

 

If you are upgrading to v9.2,  please review this article: Channels 9.2 Upgrade Process with DB Migration.

 

Known Issues

  1. If the Error Options in Advanced Client Options for Network or Message are set to Debug or All, significant memory utilization issues and slow performance of downloads will occur, especially with email attachments.  It is strongly recommended to only use Debug or All under the direction of Moxie Support and only for short periods of time. 

     
  2. It is strongly recommended, for security reasons, to disable Automatic login on disconnect in Advanced Client Options in the Administrator, under System. The agent’s password may be available on the agent’s computer (Java Cache) during and after the reconnect process. Note that this would only be available to personal with access to the user's account. 
  3. Cache Database Name is not Linked

    • Under certain circumstances, after applying 9.2 HF1 Patch 7 and Service Release 0, agents are unable to see the emails in the Mailbox view in the Agent Client.

    • This happens when the name used for the database server while configuring the Cache database during the install process is not configured as a Linked server to the Database server where the Channels Main Database resides. 

    • Refer to this article in the Moxie support Portal for more information.

  4. Agents can search for emails in Mailboxes for which they don't have view permission

    • Under certain circumstances, agents can search for emails in Mailboxes for which they don't have view permission.

    • The query to search the emails returns the results from all mailboxes to which the agent has at least one permission. However only mailboxes to which the agent has view permissions should be fetched.

    • This will be resolved in a future release. Please contact Moxie support of additional information

  5. Extended characters show as question marks in categories and departments in Administrator

    • If an email category or a department is created with an extended character such as an accented character (i.e., ñ), the character will appear as a question mark character (?)
