Known Issues and Workarounds

Percussion CMS

Upgrade

Problem: Autolist entries are being published out of order after upgrading to 8.0.3.

Solution: Edit the Layout properties of your page that contains the autolist and set the "sort order" and "sort by" fields in the autolist widget.  Make sure to save the widget even if you have not made any changes.  Then republish the page.

Problem: Upgrade fails with "HY000: The total number of locks exceeds the lock table size" while upgrading the PSX_PUBLICATION_DOC table on a MySQL database server.

Solution: Increase the size of the MySQL innodb_buffer_pool_size server option.  Restart the MYSQL Server and re-run the upgrade.

Problem: Upgrade fails with "42000: Row size too large. The maximum row size for the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 65535" on RXSITES table when running MySQL.

Solution: Run the following SQL to convert the table row format to dynamic: 

ALTER TABLE RXSITES ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC;

Problem: DTS HTTPS Connector fails with an error on keyalias. 

Solution: Edit the Deployment/Server/conf/server.xml and search for keyAlias.  Delete the attribute from the file and restart the Percussion DTS service. 

Problem: RSS Feeds stop working after upgrade even after full publish. 

Solution: Make sure to copy the rxconfig/secure folder from the CMS server (including all hidden files on the folder), to the <InstallDir>/rxconfig/secure folder on each DTS server.  Restart the Percussion DTS Service.
