Fix
We fixed these issues

  • In Boomi Cloud API Management - Local Edition 6.0.0, the default admin password and OAuth scope could not be customized. We fixed this issue, and now, in Boomi Cloud API Management - Local Edition 6.1.0, you can customize them by pre-install hook. (EIN-12220)

    Refer to the Customizing IDs and Keys for Local Edition in the Installation Guide for more information.

  • The Fluent-bit side car may not have permission to collect logs from the pod console logs (from the host path location). Users can choose not to deploy the Fluent-bit side car or change the log location to the pod filesystem. (EIN-12303)

    Refer to the Values.global.logging.includeFluentBitContainer in the Installation Guide for more information.

  • The oauth2-jwt-authenticator fails for cached JWT keys. The jwks_cache_expiry is set to 0. Normally, it is set to 15. (EIN-12313)

  • Users reported a NonUniqueResultException error while creating new endpoints. A fix was done for this issue. (WA-13810)

  • The imagePullPolicy was missing for ConfigUI. This is fixed for ConfigUI and all Fluent-bit containers. (EIN-12278)

    Refer to the Values.global.apimImageRegistry in the Installation Guide for more information.

  • Users reported anomalous behavior of mTLS for the number of connections opened to the backend when using a connection via ML with mTLS. To fix this issue, create a backend service that supports mTLS and a configuration for mutual SSL. (EIN-11984)

  • The application EAV field was not getting populated when creating an application. A fix was done for this issue. (WA-13690)

  • Creating a Scheduled Maintenance Event for multiple endpoints failed with an error message Scheduled Maintenance Event already assigned. This issue occurred because the name path of a newly created Scheduled Maintenance Event was not getting displayed in the Boomi Cloud API Management UI. A fix is done for this issue, and users can add more than one endpoint while creating a Scheduled Maintenance event. (WA-13681)

    Refer to the Managing Endpoints for more information.

  • When creating an API definition using the URI Import option, an incorrect URI error message is displayed. A fix was implemented as a workaround for this issue, and now a valid incorrect URI error message is displayed. (WA-13592)

  • The helm chart shows warnings when deploying on OpenShift 4.13. This does not impact cluster deployment or functionality. This issue has now been fixed. (EIN-11575)

Fix
Known Issues

The following items are known issues and will be addressed in a future release:

  • During the rolling upgrade, traffic is disrupted for a few minutes as cache pods are upgraded, and data needs to be loaded in the new cache pods. (EIN-12583)

  • The Kubernetes load balancer changes the source/client IP value when redirecting a call to one of the traffic manager pods. As a workaround to this issue, use the X-Forwarded-For header when making traffic calls. (EIN-12217)

  • Using string concatenation with the + operator breaks the trafficmanager image build. This is because the Java assist library does not have upgraded symbols for Java 17. This is mostly observed when using string concatenation in log messages. As a workaround to this issue, use StringBuilder or Logback formatters.

    Refer to the example in the Adding logger utility class in the SDK Guide for more information. (EIN-12294)

  • Boomi Cloud API Management – Local Edition does not connect to the MySQL database if the database password contains special characters other than the following special characters: (EIN-12174)

    • Tilde ~
    • Exclamation mark !
    • Ampersand @
    • Hash or Pound #
    • Dollar sign $
    • Percentage %
    • Caret ^
    • Asterisk *
    • Open and close parentheses ()
    • Open and close curly braces {}
    • Open and close brackets []
    • Underscore _
    • Plus symbol +

  • Using wildcard characters while searching for identity or certificate names does not let you filter the search results. (WA-13679)

  • The user gets a console error message in the Configuration Manager UI while creating the API Definition Endpoint and Package key. (WA-13680)
