Zimbra Collaboration Joule 8.8.15 Patch 4 GA Release

Template:Ubuntu18GA

Check out the What's New, Fixed Issues, and Known Issues for this version of Zimbra Collaboration. Please refer to the Patch Installation section for Patch Installation instructions. As always, you are encouraged to tell us what you think in the Forums or open a support ticket to report issues.

NOTE: If you are upgrading or migrating from an older version of Zimbra to Zimbra 8.8 Production Ready, please read Things to Know Before Upgrading and First Steps with the Zimbra NG Modules for critical information before you upgrade.


What's New

NOTE: Beta features are not supported and should not be installed on production systems. Beta modules have been provided for evaluation in lab environments only.

ZCO Contacts' display addresses are now formatted according to their Country when changes are synchronized from Zimbra (France or Germany, at this time). Contacts which were previously synced will need to be edited or resynced to have their addresses updated.

Fixed Issues

ZWC Users no longer receive an error message when attempting to download multiple files from a sub-folder in Briefcase. The download now produces a single .zip as expected.
Backup NG Improved SmartScan error handling, especially when the Backup initializes. All write/permission errors are now considered blockers.
Backup NG The doFixOrhpans operation now fully supports Drive items.
Mobile NG The getDeviceInfo command now returns more information (on par with the Legacy Mobile module).
Mobile NG Improved bad header detection, badly formatted items that used to cause errors such as javax.mail.internet.ParseException: Expected parameter name, got ";" are better handled.
Mobile NG Fixed a bug that could cause a java.lang.RuntimeException: Invalid Zimbra WeekOfMonth 5 error during calendar sync.
HSM NG The doMoveMailbox operation has been reworked to improve resource usage and lower its impact on the system's general performances.
HSM NG Fixed a bug that could cause the doMoveBlobs operation to only handle 10001 items for each run.
Admin NG Fixed an issue that caused Delegated Admin authentication to be logged twice, once as "Unknown" and once with the proper email address.
Drive NG Added a MIME-detection logic to assist the browser's built-in one. This logic prevents upload of unknown files of size 0 bytes.
Drive NG Folder download now gets all items hosted on third-party volumes synchronously to avoid download issues.
Drive NG Fixed a bug that caused items imported from Briefcase to lose the original creation date.
Zimbra Connect Several minor message acknowledgment (read/unread) and scrolling improvements.
Zimbra Connect When searching for a contact, more information is now visible (e.g. the "New Chat" view).
Zimbra Connect Changed the default Instant Meeting name format to *Instant Meeting YYYY-MM-DD*.
Zimbra Connect Users now see an error when they try to upload a profile picture larger than the allowed size.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that could cause sent file preview to be inconsistent between the mini chat view and the tab view.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that allowed to add multiple instances of the same email address to an Instant Meeting's attendee list.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that could cause both ends of a 1:1 chat to see the "You created the conversation" message on new conversations.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that could cause all users in a channel to see the "You joined the channel" message when another user joined the channel.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that could cause the background of the "Instant Meeting Link" section of an Instant Meeting's info panel to have a white background.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that caused the "Cancel" button in some dialogs to be empty.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that prevented sending a file when the same file was added to the list of files to send and then removed.
Zimbra Connect The doImportChannels command output does not show the monitor option anymore since this operation cannot be monitored.

Known Issues

Zimbra Connect Beginning in 8.8.15, Chat History is ID-based instead of email-based: if a mailbox is deleted and then a new mailbox with the same email address is created, the history of the old mailbox will not be available to the new mailbox.
