This readme document contains information about installation and removal of the interim fix and about known problems, restrictions, and solutions in support of IBM Content Navigator Container Version 3.0.6.0.
- A new feature has been introduced in this interim fix which allows clients to upload a plug-in jar file to a server path from a client workstation. A new field or setting 'Upload File Path on server', is now available in the Settings section of the administration desktop, whose value is set to the target path on the IBM Content Navigator server machine that will contain the plug-in jar file. In the case where IBM Content Navigator is deployed to multiple nodes, this path should exist on all the nodes. When this feature is used, a New Plug-in or Modify Plug-in action will place the plugin-jar in a 'plugins' directory under the target path on the server. This new feature applies to only plug-ins uploaded as jar files but not as class files.
You might see security warnings and update
requests when using certain versions of Oracle Java
Runtime Environment (JRE).
For information about issues with Oracle JRE, see http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21640073
To update the Edit Service client, on Windows operating systems, uninstall the old version and install the new version and on Mac operating systems, remove the old version and unpack the new version.
The fixes that were provided in previous IBM Content Navigator Interim Fixes are combined in this fix.
