Current (Known) Issues in ZCS 8.6 Build 1153

Bug 97304 Upgrading from 8.5.1 to 8.6 doesn't check the local proxy variables and it fails the upgrade.

When upgrading, the Script validates the license against https://license.zimbra.com. If your Server is behind a proxy the upgrade script (and also the license activation itself) ignores the Proxy System Variable.

Outlook 2011 is unable to negotiate SSL/TLS, probably from disabling RC4 and/or other insecure ciphers With a workaround in the same Bug.

Bug 96991 Zimbra Desktop does not work with ZCS 8.6.0 with shipped version of JRE

ZD will be unable to connect to the ZCS 8.6 server, error will be something like "Remote host closed connection during handshake".

Bug 96123 User wants to be able to use "/" and quotes in task titles

User will be warned that task names can not have :

You'll get a pop-up box: Cannot save. you have errors that must be corrected: The subject cannot contain / (forward slash). "(double quote), or :(colon)

Tasks that were created in older ZCS versions that used those characters will prompt with that warning and force the user to rename when they are accessed in ZCS 8.6 .
