Known issues

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.9-8.0.0.12 had a typo in a sql script that caused the version 9.0.0.0 to be recorded while upgrading instead of 8.0.0.9. Customers that upgraded to those versions before 3-26-2025 are affected by FLEXDEPLOY-14307. Because of this, on their next upgrade, they could miss the sql file to upgrade to 9.0.0.0 or a higher 8.0.0.x version. The work around for this will be provided by the support team as needed. If possible, work with support before your next upgrade.

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.0 is affected by FLEXDEPLOY-11985 - When some customers upgrade to 8.0.0.0, they may hit the error: Error deploying web application directory [/u01/flexdeploy/apache-tomcat-flexdeploy/webapps/flexdeploy] java.lang.IllegalStateException: Error starting child ... Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/i18n/util/LocaleMapper. If you hit this, see Solution for Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/i18n/util/LocaleMapper This solution is automatically implemented in 8.0.0.1 and future versions.

• FlexDeploy 7.0.0.0 to 7.0.0.5 and 8.0.0.0 are affected by FLEXDEPLOY-12078. These versions do not properly purge as much data as they should. The artifact repository and database could be larger than expected. Upgrading to 7.0.0.6+ or 8.0.0.1+ is recommended to allow the appropriate data to be deleted.

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.4 is affected by FLEXDEPLOY-12644. Where the Release Dashboard and Edit Pipeline screens display an "Internal Error - Invalid ext class" message. This error occurs in cases where pipeline versions contain Manual Steps. This is resolved in 8.0.0.5. If you are upgrading to 8.0, use 8.0.0.7+.

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.0-8.0.0.4 are affected by FLEXDEPLOY-12654 - Endpoint Execution Choice does not default properly when converting a workflow xml where Endpoint Execution was never chosen before migrating to the new 8.0 format. This is resolved in 8.0.0.5. If you are upgrading to 8.0, use 8.0.0.7+.

• FLEXDEPLOY-12997 - Oracle FSM plugin - builds and deployments between different FSM releases fail with a 400 error on import. To resolve this issue, upgrade to plugin version 8.0.0.7.56.

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.0-8.0.0.6 are affected by FLEXDEPLOY-12935 - Migrating to 8.0.0.0-8.0.0.6 from versions before 6.0 did not work properly when using Pre-deploy workflows. If you have Pre-deploy workflows, and are on a FlexDeploy version < 6.0.0.0, please upgrade directly to 8.0.0.7+.

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.7 is affected by FLEXDEPLOY-13290 - Resolved a regression introduced in 8.0.0.7 that would sometimes cause the Release Settings page to not display properly. Please use FlexDeploy 8.0.0.8+.

• FlexDeploy 8.0.0.6-8.0.0.8 and 9.0.0.0 are affected by FLEXDEPLOY-13544. A regression in 8.0.0.6 causes the ServiceNow integration to not use the customized URL provided when there are multiple change tickets being checked simultaneously. An 8.0.0.8 patch is available if needed. 8.0.0.9 and 9.0.0.1 contain the fix for it.

• FLEXDEPLOY-14318 - If you upgraded from version 7.0 or earlier to 8.0.0.5-8.0.0.12 or 9.0.0.0-9.0.0.4 and use ADF, EBS, Oracle BI, Oracle API Platform, Oracle Forms, PeopleSoft, SAP, Siebel, WebLogic, WebMethods, Wildfly, or Mule Plugins, please verify the Endpoint Selection and Execution settings for workflows utilizing these plugins. Migrating from earlier versions directly to 8.0.0.13 / 9.0.0.5 is recommended.

• FLEXDEPLOY-14330 - FlexDeploy 8.0.0.6-8.0.0.12 and 9.0.0.0-9.0.0.4 are affected by FLEXDEPLOY-14330. A regression in 8.0.0.6 causes CMS tickets to sometimes send the wrong environment code into the isTicketApproved and isTicketRejected. This happens if tickets are waiting for approval in multiple environments and polling is enabled. Patches are available for 9.0 releases. 8.0.0.13 was released to fix this.
