IO29373 Inline editable list field in entry template disappears when more than 10 values are added.
(IBM Content Navigator users) If more than 10 values are added to a multi-valued property using an inline editable list field, and the Enter key is pressed, the field disappears without the values being saved. With this fix, this symptom does not occur.
IO29374 Work page filter closes automatically if mouse cursor is moved away from hover help text.
(IBM Content Navigator and IBM BAW users) When using the work page filter in BAW, if users moves the mouse cursor on the Info icon, hover help text or note is displayed. If the user moves the cursor out of text, the filter window closes automatically instead of only closing the note. However, if the user clicks on X to close the note, then the filter stays open. The symptom also occurs in the Search feature of Content Navigator when the mouse cursor is moved over the Info icon of any of the search panel's input fields. With this fix, this symptom does not occur.
IO29375 If 'All versions' is selected, document properties can be edited if the document isn't displayed in first page of results.
(IBM Content Manager users) When running a search for documents with 'All versions' selected, the document properties can be edited when the document is not displayed on the first page of the search results. The document properties should never be editable when 'All versions is selected. With this fix, the document properties will not be editable when the document is displayed on any of the pages of the search results.
IO29377 401 code is not gracefully handled when Single Sign-On (SSO) is enabled.
(IBM Content Navigator users) When SSO is enabled and the server returns a 401 code for re-authentication, Content Navigator does not handle it gracefully. With the fix, this error is correctly interpreted as a session expired situation and re-authentication is triggered.
IO29383 Document History shows user short name instead of full name.
(IBM FileNet Content Manager users) The History of document shows event creator's short name instead of full name. With this fix, the Document History displays the full name.
IO29385 Edit Service client fails login with single sign-on.
(IBM Content Navigator users) The Edit Service client fails to login using single sign-on (SSO) with Azure Active Directory. Users cannot login using SSO. With this fix the login using SSO succeeds.
IO29387 Sensitivity Label of .eml extension email file is not converted.
(IBM Content Navigator users) When opening a .eml extension email file using Ajax Viewer, the 'Sensitivity' label is not shown. With this fix, this symptom does not occur.
IO29389 Desktops are not displayed in the Desktops section of administration desktop.
(IBM Content Navigator users) When a new desktop is created by selecting an existing desktop and clicking Copy or by clicking New button, the existing desktops are not displayed anymore. The only way to restore the display of existing desktops is by restoring the Content Navigator configuration database from a backup created prior to creating the new desktop. With this fix, this symptom does not occur.
IO29394 Unable to use corbaloc URL containing query parameters.
(IBM FileNet Content Manager users) When adding a FileNet Content Manager repository with a corbaloc URL containing a query string, an error occurs when connecting to the repository, preventing the repository from being created. With this fix, the problem is resolved.
IO29395 Entry template hidden fields are displayed at runtime.
(IBM FileNet Content Manager users) Hidden fields in an entry template are displayed after upgrade to v3.0.11. This symptom occurs only with existing entry templates where the property specified as hidden has data type xs:timestamp and isDateOnly is set to true in ACCE web client. New entry templates created after upgrade to v3.0.11 do not show this symptom. With this fix, this symptom does not occur any more with existing entry templates.
IO29396 Event count is displayed as 0 in Doc Info pane for non-admin users.
(IBM FileNet Content Manager users) Event count for a document is displayed incorrectly as 0 in Doc Info pane for non-admin users. This does not match the count that is displayed in the History tab of the Properties dialog. With this fix, the Doc Info pane displays the event count correctly.
IO29401 Mutated vowels for German language incorrect after deployment.
(IBM Content Navigator users) Mutated vowels for German language are displayed incorrectly after deployment. With this fix, this symptom is resolved.
IO29405 'No secret key' error occurs with Edit Service client and Kerberos single sign-on (SSO).

IO29412 DB2/zOS database script does not create tablespace for TASK_QUEUE table.
(IBM Content Navigator users) The DB2/zOS database script does not create tablespace for TASK_QUEUE table. With this fix, the tablespace is created for this table.
IO29413 Desktop is not loaded after upgrade to v3.0.15 for profiles without FileNet Content Manager (P8).
(IBM Content Navigator users) If the Content Navigator profile does not contain a P8 repository, then user desktops fails to load. The server log contains an error message, 'Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.log4j.Layout'. With this fix, the desktops load successfully.
IO29421 Results Display panel cannot be opened.
(IBM Content Navigator users without IBM Content Manager OnDemand repositories) When clicking on the Results Display button of a new or an existing search, an error occurs. The application server log file contains an entry with 'java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/ibm/edms/od/ODConfig' when the error occurs. With this fix, the problem is resolved.
