This release is primarily a bugfix release; notable changes include:

  • Resolve numerous issues with the 4.0 → 4.2 upgrade steps on Oracle
  • In-database sessions on Oracle are no longer truncated at 8k,
    leading to spurious logouts

Internet Explorer:

  • Fix submission issues under Internet Explorer

Rich text editor:

  • If returning to a reply/correspond page with the back button, the
    rich text editor will no longer double-escape previously written
    content.

REST:

  • Fix an empty ‘text/plain’ part when tickets are created using the
    REST interface.

Other bugfixes:

  • Optimize transaction display code to speed up long ticket displays
    by short-circuiting transaction custom field checking.

    the Query Builder
