New features and considerations

Adding a log registry to store failed login attempts

When a user failed 3 times his login to ProcessMaker, a log with this information is saved in the loginFailed.log file with the following information:

  • Date
  • Use information.
  • IP address from where the user is trying to access.
  • Workspace name.
  • Browsers and their versions.

For instance, the following information could be stored.

2014-07-02 16:55:22 | Many failed authentication attempts for USER: admin | IP: 192.168.10.109 | WS: dmuz | Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.153 Safari/537.36

This feature is included inside the Enhanced Login plugin, however to see this log detail it is necessary to apply the hotfix.

Output Documents generation configurations

When an Output Document is generated during the execution of a process, this can be either opened inside the same browser or it can be downloaded in the local computer.

Find this option inside the Output Document creation.

Where:

  • Download the file: Download the file directly in the local computer. By choosing this option the browser will select automatically the option to download the file.

Configure the browser to download these type of files automatically.

  • Open the file: Open the file in the same browser. By choosing this option the browser will select automatically the option to open the file.

Configure the browser to open the file in it.Use a PDF or DOC viewer to see the documents.

Known Issues

The reported issue 13811 is working properly on Linux, but not in Windows. In version 2.5.3, the extension will be working properly on Windows Installations.

Recommendations

  • It is recommended to execute the ./processmaker database-upgrade command after applying the hotfix, because of some changes made in the database.
  • After updating the database, the .po file must be uploaded.
  • About this 14980 and 15089 issues, it is necessary to regenerate Propel classes in the PM tables which have those issues. For such purpose edit the table and save it (it is not necessary to change the structure, just execute the saving of the table definition).
  • About bug 13604, it is necessary to delete manually all data inside LANGUAGE table and populate it by executing the insert instruction which is located at workflow/engine/data/mysql/insert.sql (lines 28 to 164), do this only in workspaces where the upgrade is executed. Don't do this if a new workspace is created after applying the hotfix,
  • Bugs 12828, 14302, 13598 and 14622 are changes related to the ldapAdvance plugin (v. 1.4.40). To fix it, some modifications were made in the core, that's why those are included in the hotfix.
  • This hotfix also includes a fix related with a bug in the pmPowerUp plugin (14198). This plugin is already in the final stage of corrections.
