3.6.1 (2016-11-15)

  • The Host Server now retrieves details of Owners from the Registration Server. The email address and Provider Code of the Owner will be updated within 24 hours if changed in the Registration Server. So-called “magic usernames” are now only displayed when the Host Server has no email address for a user (HOSTSERVER-629).

    See Sync Owner Data Task for details.

  • When adding a Space Owner in the Admin Console, the Host Server will now check that the user is a registered TeamDrive User. Note that that it is now possible to add an Owner by specifying the Email address only (HOSTSERVER-640).

  • The statistics poll method now returns the Space owner details to the TeamDrive Client (HOSTSERVER-639).

  • Admin Console: fixed error handling when creating an Owner using the Admin Console.

  • Admin Console: fixed an error when using the Admin Console to create a new Depot.

  • The Client will now be prevented from inserted Space meta data with zero length (HOSTSERVER-644).

  • It is now possible to set the system settings ServiceHostURL and RegServerURL` to the domain name of the Host Server or Registration Server instead of a complete URL. The Host Server will not automatically convert this to a URL as required (HOSTSERVER-645).

    The setup process of the Host Server will continue to set these values to complete URLs, although the input fields during setup only require domain names.
