CNXN-4128: FileWriterDevice - Add option to copy file without copying with .tmp extension and renaming

We have encountered a case where an sftp server will allow file creation but not rename. This new setting lets you upload the file with the final filename directly (as opposed to uploading as a temp file followed by a rename to the final filename). We recommend this only for sftp, as this protocol has a specific ‘file close’ command missing from many other protocols (like ftps, or file system).

CNXN-4119: Plugins not showing in Connexion (defect)

15.1 R3 and 15.1R4 have been partially optimized to require less data during the initial load, as well as more efficient use of data over the network. This should help these builds be faster when used over slow network connections (15.5 has been further optimized to be even faster). This introduced this defect which causes unused versions of plugins to not be displayed in the UI. This has been fixed in R4.

CNXN-4109: Add Setting to Remote Agent Sender to Disable Caching

The remote agent batch logic was updated in the 15.1 branch to allow messages to build up within the remote agent for up to 20 seconds. In some cases, this may be too long. In order to decrease this batching period, or, completely disable batching, a ‘Max Batch Latency’ setting was added to the remote agent sender device. Setting this to zero will disable batching altogether. Updating the remote agent sender device (or channel) with a <R4 client will most likely reset the batching latency back to the default (of 20 seconds).

CNXN-4101: The database polling device doesn't work in the remote agent

The services required to make the database polling device work on the remote agent were not implemented prior to this build. The database polling device will now has the same capabilities whether running in Connexion or a remote agent. Note that working with a database polling device in the gateway UI will be slower since calls must be forwarded to the remote agent.

CNXN-4100: No messages were found in the file. Make sure framing settings are correct.

Issue: When a corrupted file (typically HL7) is encountered by the file reader, the file is not ingested and an error is posted to the device (no message is posted on the queue). This corrupted file is never picked up and remains in the directory indefinitely (and an error is logged on each directory read).

Solution: When the file reader has [Message Framing] enabled and a file is encountered containing zero valid messages, the contents of the file are read into a message and placed on the error queue. An error is logged to the device, and then source file is then deleted. If the file is large (Configurable via the UI), then it is added as an attachment to the message.

For example, the following file is not valid HL7 as it is missing the MSH segment. Prior to R4, this file would not be ingested and an error logged on each read of the source directory.

In R4, this file is read into a message and placed onto the error queue.

CNXN-4099: Add Column to Connected User displaying their Authorization Role(s) comma delimited

New Feature: The ability to easily view which Authorization Role(s) a currently logged on user is mapped to. This applies to both Connexion and Gateway.

CNXN-4098: "Disallow Logins" setting with a list of specific user accounts that are denied access even though they have an account in AD

New Feature: The ability to reject users from logging into Connexion / Gateway without disabling their active directory / windows account.

Normal procedure for disallowing access to Connexion / Gateway is to remove the user from the relevant active directory (or Windows) user groups. There may be cases where a user account cannot be disabled or removed from the relevant user groups without breaking access to other software. In this case, the AppSettings.config file can be changed to exclude specific users:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appSettings>
  <add key="LohCompactionFrequencyInMinutes" value="60"/>
  <add key="wcf:disableOperationContextAsyncFlow" value="false"/>
  <add key="MaximumAuditFileAgeInSeconds" value="120"/><!--Sets the maximum age (in seconds) of an audit file before it is processed-->
  <!--<add key="AuditWriterFormat" value="protobuf"/>--><!--protobuf, json-->
  <!--<add key="AuditWriterLogToNLogOnly" value="false"/>--><!--This will disable the Custom Code Handling of audit records and write them directly to a log file instead-->
  <!--<add key="EnableGatewayApi" value="false"/>-->
  <add key="UserBlackList" value="Domain\User, Domain\User"/><!--This will reject specific users from logging into Connexion. Comma-delimited list of Domain\User-->
</appSettings>

Update the [UserBlackList] setting to include a comma-delimited list of user accounts (in the form of Domain\User) followed by a service restart. Rejected users will see the following message upon connecting to Connexion / Gateway:

CNXN-4095: Support for writing to S3 in Channel Backup

Improvement: The ability to send channel backup files to AWS S3 (or Azure blob storage)

The channel backup UI has been updated to reflect the file writer’s ability to send to AWS/Azure. Store your channel backup files in the cloud. The recommended approach is to test sending files via a file writer device (in a normal channel). Once successful, copy the settings into the channel backup UI.

Channel backups are never automatically deleted - you must periodically purge old channel backup files.

CNXN-4086: Add option to File Reader Device to Delete Zero Byte files if older than 6 Hours

New Feature: File reader can automatically (old) delete zero-byte files.

Occasionally, zero-byte files are deposited into a directory being monitored by a file reader device. Zero-byte filenames are remembered, and after 6 hours the files are deleted (assuming they are still zero-byte). A log is written when this happens.
