43238 BitStream Monitor A new monitor has been added that logs interactions with BitStream servers. The purpose is to monitor the health of BitStream servers and be able to quickly identify the source of and heavy/problematic BitStream queries or file updates. This monitor logs much of the same type of information logged by other monitors with addition of a few BitStream specific things (BitStream server, operation type, query type, project, report etc.). When a query fails or times out, details about the query are logged as well.

As a result of this validation process either a warning will be displayed (when launching a survey) or the task will be aborted (generating the database for a Community Panel project). This validation didn't take into account some of the known reserved Confirmit keywords or JScript keywords. This could lead to errors if a Question with a reserved keyword as Question ID was used either in a filter definition in an Expression builder (e.g. for generating filtered survey data exports), in an expression of a Recoded variable or in the Action script of a Data Processing rule.

53104 Internal Server error when launching or opening a question that has a table lookup that references a lookup table that doesn't exist

If for example you import a survey that has a question with a table lookup, but the lookup table doesn’t exist on the server the survey was imported to, you get a deserializer exception during survey launch. This should be detected and a proper error message given instead of an exception.

51691 Add support for CFB mode for Generic SSO key encryption

Update the SSO mechanism by adding an optional 3rd parameter to the SSO payload (in addition to co/key) containing an Initialization Vector (IV). If this is present, then use the IV and CFB mode with a feedback size of 128 bits to decrypt the ticket. If not then use ECB as previously for backwards-compatibility with existitng implementations.

51552 Default trace log listener should have a MaxFileSize property set

In Confirmit 16, the default trace listener for Confirmit services .config files is configured to use the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Logging namespace, using the FileLogTraceListener class. The default trace omits the MaxFileSize property, which makes tracing default to a max file size of 5MB. A higher max file size value (500MB) should be set by default, otherwise trace logging will stop once trace files reach 5MB. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.visualbasic.logging.filelogtracelistener.aspx for details.

53272 Duplicate check for Roles only checks first 10 charaters

Confirmit does not allow duplicate roles (with the same name). In the event a new role was saved with the same name as an existing role, the existing role was opened instead without giving the user a warning. In addition, the duplicate check only checked the first 10 characters. As a result it was not possible to create a new role where the 10 first characters matched the 10 first characters of an existing role. If 2 roles with 10 matching first characters already existed in the database because they were generated in earlier versions of Confirmit, it was only possible to change one of them.

53491 SPSS (sps/da or sav) export: data are silently removed without warning when a code exists which is not in accordance with the schema

When running an export to SPSS (sps/dat or sav) either in Survey Data > exports or Data Processing rules, values of categorical questions were removed if they were not in accordance with the survey definition. When a file containing such incorrect data was imported, this could result in incorrect values in the survey data. Example: If a Single question q5 has the codes 500 and 600 defined in the survey, and you had imported an incorrect value "10" into the data set, this would be removed in v16 when exporting to SPSS since only "500" and "600" were allowed according to the survey definition. Now the value 10 will be exported, even though it does not correspond to the schema. With this change, all values will be exported for categorical questions as long as the size for this question is not exceeded. In the event the size is exceeded, an error message will be displayed. With this change, the SPSS export behaves consistently with the other data exports.
