WorkflowGen 7.12.0

Important known issues

  • We have recently identified some regression bugs (#1895, #1907, #1950 and #2073) in this release that could affect the normal execution of workflow actions and the directory synchronization service with the Active Directory and LDAP connectors when the directory uses a login configured with AES (FIPS compliant) or Version 5 (Legacy) password management mode with an Encryption key.

    These known issues have already been fixed in the latest release.

    If you have already upgraded your WorkflowGen to version 7.12.0 or planning to upgrade a previous version then we recommend installing version 7.14.1

Reminders

  • Microsoft Windows Server 2008 is no longer supported as of WorkflowGen version 7.11.0. We recommend migrating to Windows Server 2012 or later.

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2008 is no longer supported as of WorkflowGen version 7.10.0. While SQL Server 2008 is still compatible with WorkflowGen, support for any performance issues or bugs resulting from using SQL Server 2008 will no longer be provided.

    For clients currently hosting WorkflowGen on a database server older than MS SQL Server 2012, we highly recommend upgrading to MS SQL Server 2017 or 2019 for the best performance.
