o WEB: Fixed issue with saving job execution log files in the GUI in case the tmp dir does not exist in the configured QuartzDesk webapp work directory (-Dquartzdesk.work.dir=...).
Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).

o WEB: Fixed 404 errors that occurred on WAS 8.0 and WAS 8.5. Added one extra installation step (removal of JTA API JAR from quartzdesk-web.war) for WAS 8.0 and 8.5 to the QuartzDesk Web Application and Upgrade Guide for WebSphere Application Server document.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a long list of execution notification messages recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a long list of execution notification messages recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.

o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.

o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 errors when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external applications to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seco

o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred when the user attempted to add a trigger from the Triggers tab.
o WEB: Fixed the alignment of the Start Time of Day and End Time of Day fields in the DailyTimeIntervalTrigger editor.

o WEB: Added support for adding custom tabs to the Navigation panel in the GUI. Custom tabs with embedded tree-like link hierarchies can be used to add links to external extensions to the QuartzDesk GUI.
o API: Added easy-to-use JAX-WS clients for all web-services provided by the QuartzDesk Web Application (ConnectionServiceClient, QuartzServiceClient, QuartzExecHistoryServiceClient).
o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.
o WEB: New color picker in all forms.
o WEB: Chart "Save As PNG/JPG/SVG" buttons replaced by "Preview & Save" that allows the user to save the chart image using the "Save As..." option in the native (browser) context menu.
o WEB: Removed deprecated QuartzService (QuartzAnywhere) web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 errors when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed 'ext.org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: ReferenceError: "precedingExecHistory" is not defined.' error that occurs if the job's execution history is empty and a notification rule accesses the precedingExecHistory scripting variable.
Fixed Bugs:
o API: Added fix for "RuntimeException: Unexpected Quartz trigger type: null" errors are can occur while reindexing triggers upon Quartz scheduler's startup in case the Quartz-enabled application creates and deletes triggers at a very fast pace.
o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.
o AGENT: Added RMI security support to the RMI server connector.
o AGENT: Added SASL security support to the JMXMP server connector.
o WEB: Added support for secure RMI, JMXMP, and REMOTING-JMX scheduler connections.
o WEB: Added new com.quartzdesk.api.web.initializer.IApplicationInitializer API that can be implemented when embedding QuartzDesk Web Application in a custom container. This API allows programmatic initialization of the application without relying on the quartzdesk.work.dir JVM system property.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external applications to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).

o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.

o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).

o AGENT, WEB: Fixed the "[com.quartzdesk.agent.DataSynchronizationMBeanImpl:128] - Error updating connections." error emitted by the AgentConnectionSyncJob logged in quartzdesk.log in case the agent used a MySQL database.
o WEB: Fixed 404 errors that occurred on WAS 8.0 and WAS 8.5. Added one extra installation step (removal of JTA API JAR from quartzdesk-web.war) for WAS 8.0 and 8.5 to the QuartzDesk Web Application and Upgrade Guide for WebSphere Application Server document.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a long list of execution notification messages recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a long list of execution notification messages recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.

o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 errors when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external applications to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external applications to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for showing next fire times for individual triggers. This works for both existing and new (unsaved) triggers whose fire times can now be checked before the trigger is saved in the Quartz job store.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecNotificationRuleService JAX-WS web-service.
o WEB: Added new QuartzJobChainService JAX-WS web-service.
o WEB: Added 2 new operations (getTriggerFireTimes and getPlannedJobExecutions) to QuartzService JAX-WS web-service.
o WEB: Added 3 new operations (startAllConnections, pauseAllConnections and stopAllConnections) to ConnectionService JAX-WS web-service (in the latest version 3.0).
o WEB: Added a link to the external Cron Maker service to the Cron Trigger editor to assist users with the preparation of their cron expressions.
o AGENT: Added QD_JOB_CHAIN_SRC_SCHEDULER_OBJECT_NAME param to the list of job data map parameters passed by job chains to target jobs. This allows the target job to identify the scheduler the source job was fired on and possibly invoke some actions on the scheduler (e.g. pausing the source job's trigger(s) in case the target job keeps failing).
o WEB: Added new Recipient(s) field to the Messages grid showing pending and sent notification messages.
o WEB: Added informative tooltips to all grid column headers.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for Tomcat 9.x.
Changes:

o AGENT: Fixed issue with JBoss 7.1 Community whose version was not recognized by the agent.
o WEB: Fixed issues with enabling and disabling job group and trigger group pause and resume buttons on the Jobs and Triggers grids.
o AGENT: Fixed issue with detecting the Quartz scheduler version in applications using quartz-all-x-y-z.jar rather than quartz-x-y-z.jar Quartz distribution file. As a result, some of the functionality in the GUI was disabled or did not work.
o WEB: Fixed issue with saving job execution log files in the GUI in case the tmp dir does not exist in the configured QuartzDesk webapp work directory (-Dquartzdesk.work.dir=...).
Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).
o AGENT: Fixed an SQL error "ORA-01439: column to be modified must be empty to change datatype" when upgrading Oracle schema from version < 2.1.0.
o WEB: Removed all but Second, Minute, and Hour time interval unit values from the Repeat Interval Unit combo in the Daily Time Interval Trigger editor.

o WEB: Fixed 404 errors that occurred on WAS 8.0 and WAS 8.5. Added one extra installation step (removal of JTA API JAR from quartzdesk-web.war) for WAS 8.0 and 8.5 to the QuartzDesk Web Application and Upgrade Guide for WebSphere Application Server document.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.
New features:

o WEB: Configurable timestamp formats (see Settings -> General).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a long list of execution notification messages recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a long list of execution notification messages recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred when the user attempted to add a trigger from the Triggers tab.

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.
o WEB: New color picker in all forms.

o WEB: Removed deprecated QuartzService (QuartzAnywhere) web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 errors when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external applications to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

o WEB: Added support for adding custom tabs to the Navigation panel in the GUI. Custom tabs with embedded tree-like link hierarchies can be used to add links to external extensions to the QuartzDesk GUI.
o API: Added easy-to-use JAX-WS clients for all web-services provided by the QuartzDesk Web Application (ConnectionServiceClient, QuartzServiceClient, QuartzExecHistoryServiceClient).
o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.
o WEB: New color picker in all forms.
o WEB: Chart "Save As PNG/JPG/SVG" buttons replaced by "Preview & Save" that allows the user to save the chart image using the "Save As..." option in the native (browser) context menu.
o WEB: Removed deprecated QuartzService (QuartzAnywhere) web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 errors when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed 'ext.org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: ReferenceError: "precedingExecHistory" is not defined.' error that occurs if the job's execution history is empty and a notification rule accesses the precedingExecHistory scripting variable.
Fixed Bugs:
o API: Added fix for "RuntimeException: Unexpected Quartz trigger type: null" errors are can occur while reindexing triggers upon Quartz scheduler's startup in case the Quartz-enabled application creates and deletes triggers at a very fast pace.
o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.
o AGENT: Added RMI security support to the RMI server connector.
o AGENT: Added SASL security support to the JMXMP server connector.
o WEB: Added support for secure RMI, JMXMP, and REMOTING-JMX scheduler connections.
o WEB: Added new com.quartzdesk.api.web.initializer.IApplicationInitializer API that can be implemented when embedding QuartzDesk Web Application in a custom container. This API allows programmatic initialization of the application without relying on the quartzdesk.work.dir JVM system property.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external applications to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk releases, this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI-related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler that is thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar options in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).

Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.

o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).

o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:

Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).

o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).

Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:

o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:

Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:

o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.

o WEB: Removed deprecated QuartzService (QuartzAnywhere) web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:

Fixed Bugs:
o API: Added fix for "RuntimeException: Unexpected Quartz trigger type: null" errors are can occur while reindexing triggers upon Quartz scheduler's startup in case the Quartz-enabled application creates and deletes triggers at a very fast pace.
o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:

Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.

o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.

o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:

Fixed Bugs:
o API: Added fix for "RuntimeException: Unexpected Quartz trigger type: null" errors are can occur while reindexing triggers upon Quartz scheduler's startup in case the Quartz-enabled application creates and deletes triggers at a very fast pace.
o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:

New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed issue with storing intercepted log data, job execution result and user data containing \u0000 characters in PostgreSQL db. PostgreSQL uses \u0000 as a string termination character.
o WEB: Fixed missing yes/no ticks in tooltips.
o AGENT, API: Fixed an issue where unexpected errors thrown by QuartzDesk's Quartz listeners that may cause a Quartz job to remain in the "Currently Executing Jobs" list and prevent its future executions until the scheduler is restarted.
New Features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for job chain flow IDs that allow users to correlate executions of multiple target jobs fired by a particular job chain. The flow ID is passed to target jobs in a new job data map parameter QD_JOB_CHAIN_FLOW_ID.
o AGENT, WEB: Jobs fired by job chains receive a new job data map parameter QD_JOB_CHAIN_SRC_EXEC_HISTORY_ID containing the ID of the execution history record representing the execution that fired the job chain.
o AGENT: Added new config parameter jdbc.postgres.searchPath allowing the user to change the PostgreSQL search_path for all DB sessions opened by the agent.
o AGENT: Added new config parameter jdbc.oracle.currentSchema allowing the user to change the Oracle current schema all DB sessions opened by the agent.

o WEB: Added check for the JDK java for when the web application is run in the one-step installation mode.
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for showing next fire times for individual triggers. This works for both existing and new (unsaved) triggers whose fire times can now be checked before the trigger is saved in the Quartz job store.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecNotificationRuleService JAX-WS web-service.
o WEB: Added new QuartzJobChainService JAX-WS web-service.
o WEB: Added 2 new operations (getTriggerFireTimes and getPlannedJobExecutions) to QuartzService JAX-WS web-service.
o WEB: Added 3 new operations (startAllConnections, pauseAllConnections and stopAllConnections) to ConnectionService JAX-WS web-service (in the latest version 3.0).
o WEB: Added a link to the external Cron Maker service to the Cron Trigger editor to assist users with the preparation of their cron expressions.
o AGENT: Added QD_JOB_CHAIN_SRC_SCHEDULER_OBJECT_NAME param to the list of job data map parameters passed by job chains to target jobs. This allows the target job to identify the scheduler the source job was fired on and possibly invoke some actions on the scheduler (e.g. pausing the source job's trigger(s) in case the target job keeps failing).
o WEB: Added new Recipient(s) field to the Messages grid showing pending and sent notification messages.
o WEB: Added informative tooltips to all grid column headers.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for Tomcat 9.x.
Changes:

o AGENT: Fixed issue with JBoss 7.1 Community whose version was not recognized by the agent.
o WEB: Fixed issues with enabling and disabling job group and trigger group pause and resume buttons on the Jobs and Triggers grids.
o AGENT: Fixed issue with detecting the Quartz scheduler version in applications using quartz-all-x-y-z.jar rather than quartz-x-y-z.jar Quartz distribution file. As a result, some of the functionality in the GUI was disabled or did not work.
o WEB: Fixed issue with saving job execution log files in the GUI in case the tmp dir does not exist in the configured QuartzDesk webapp work directory (-Dquartzdesk.work.dir=...).
Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).

o AGENT, WEB: Fixed the "[com.quartzdesk.agent.DataSynchronizationMBeanImpl:128] - Error updating connections." error emitted by the AgentConnectionSyncJob logged in quartzdesk.log in case the agent used a MySQL database.
o WEB: Fixed 404 errors that occurred on WAS 8.0 and WAS 8.5. Added one extra installation step (removal of JTA API JAR from quartzdesk-web.war) for WAS 8.0 and 8.5 to the QuartzDesk Web Application and Upgrade Guide for WebSphere Application Server document.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added two new columns to all job grids indicating if the job detail class has been annotated with the @ConcurrentExecutionDisallowed and @PersistJobDataAfterExecuting annotations.

Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred when the user attempted to add a trigger from the Triggers tab.

o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.

o WEB: Removed deprecated QuartzService (QuartzAnywhere) web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.

Fixed Bugs:
o API: Added fix for "RuntimeException: Unexpected Quartz trigger type: null" errors are can occur while reindexing triggers upon Quartz scheduler's startup in case the Quartz-enabled application creates and deletes triggers at a very fast pace.
o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.

Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.

o WEB: Fixed issue with saving job execution log files in the GUI in case the tmp dir does not exist in the configured QuartzDesk webapp work directory (-Dquartzdesk.work.dir=...).
Changes:
o AGENT, API, WEB: Added support for JBoss EAP 6.4.0.
o API: Updated SecurityTokenUtils.decrypt to accept security tokens with an empty principal name. This prevents the "Invalid number of components in the security token" security exception from being thrown in case the security has been deliberately disabled for the QuartzDesk webapp.
o WEB: Implemented a workaround for a bug in Tomcat that sometimes caused an empty principal name being passed in the security token to external applications integrated with QuartzDesk GUI through custom navigation menu links.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed an issue with monitoring URLs for jobs and triggers whose names contain spaces. These monitoring URLs returned invalid status codes (JOB_NOT_FOUND/TRIGGER_NOT_FOUND).
o AGENT: Fixed an SQL error "ORA-01439: column to be modified must be empty to change datatype" when upgrading Oracle schema from version < 2.1.0.
o WEB: Removed all but Second, Minute and Hour time interval unit values from the Repeat Interval Unit combo in the Daily Time Interval Trigger editor.

o AGENT: Fixed a bug in the JBoss classpath scanner that did not find any available Quartz job implementation classes.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed a bug with JBoss EAP releases not being recognized by the agent and the webapp ("" application server version showing up in logs).
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed a "java.net.MalformedURLException: Unsupported protocol: jmxmp" issue in WAS 8.5.x. This issue prevented all JMXMP Quartz scheduler connections from being established.
Changes:
o AGENT, API: Re-engaged Proguard plugin for the agent and relocated few classes in the agent API that are invoked from the QuartzDesk Public API.
New Features:
o AGENT, WEB: When adding or editing a job in the GUI, users can now select from the list of available job implementation classes automatically discovered on the Quartz scheduler's classpath.
o API: Added new APIs (WorkerThreadLoggingInterceptorRegistry, WorkerThreadCallable, WorkerThreadRunnable) for the interception of log messages produced by worker threads spawned from the main job execution thread.
o AGENT, WEB: Added detection of WebLogic server version that is written to the log during agent and webapp startup.
o WEB: Added support for opening custom links in tabs inside the main application panel of the QuartzDesk GUI.

Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed a NPE that occurred on WAS 8 and 8.5 when the user accessed the main (index) page.
o WEB: Fixed the "log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.jboss.logging)." warning printed on the standard error output during the start of the application.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed the "[com.quartzdesk.agent.DataSynchronizationMBeanImpl:128] - Error updating connections." error emitted by the AgentConnectionSyncJob logged in quartzdesk.log in case the agent used a MySQL database.
o WEB: Fixed 404 errors that occurred on WAS 8.0 and WAS 8.5. Added one extra installation step (removal of JTA API JAR from quartzdesk-web.war) for WAS 8.0 and 8.5 to the QuartzDesk Web Application and Upgrade Guide for WebSphere Application Server document.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with the QuartzDesk webapp loading the Google jsapi from a Google URL. This may prevent the QuartzDesk GUI from starting in environments where access to external URLs is denied (e.g. by firewalls on the local network, firewalls in China preventing people from accessing all Google URLs).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed issue with trigger-related datetime values (Start Time, Previous Fire Time, Next Fire Time, etc.) not being displayed in the Triggers tab.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added two new columns to all job grids indicating if the job detail class has been annotated with the @ConcurrentExecutionDisallowed and @PersistJobDataAfterExecuting annotations.

o AGENT, WEB: Added support for WildFly AS 8.x, 9.x and 10.x.
o AGENT, WEB: AGENT, WEB: Added support for Tomcat 8.x.
o WEB: Configurable timestamp formats (see Settings -> General).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
Changes:
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Increased the size of the msg_to_addr column in the qd_q_exec_notif_rule table from 64 chars to 256 to accommodate a longer list of an execution notification message recipients.
o AGENT: Changed log level of "Skipped processing of registration notification event for MBean..." messages from WARN to DEBUG so that they no longer fill the standard agent log on some platforms.
o WEB: Turned off logging of Hibernate statistical events that were filling up JBoss/WildFly app server logs.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException thrown during the initialization of the agent when there is a Logback configuration file picked up by the Logback auto-configuration API.
o AGENT: Fixed a bug that was causing "DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-727, SQLSTATE=56098, SQLERRMC=2;-270;42997;63" on DB2 when the agent attempted to mark a notification message as failed.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Ajax timeout (configurable under Application Settings > General in the GUI) not being honored after ExtJS framework upgrade in 2.0.0. As a result, the default 30-second timeout was always applied.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred when the user attempted to add a trigger from the Triggers tab.
o WEB: Fixed the alignment of the Start Time of Day and End Time of Day fields in the the DailyTimeIntervalTrigger editor.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Implemented "Execution Health" indicators for jobs and triggers showing the status of the last N executions.
o WEB: Added missing tooltips in the Application Settings and Message Channel Profiles dialogs.
o WEB: Added support for adding custom tabs to the Navigation panel in the GUI. Custom tabs with embedded tree-like link hierarchies can be used to add links to external extensions to the QuartzDesk GUI.
o API: Added easy to use JAX-WS clients for all web-services provided by the QuartzDesk Web Application (ConnectionServiceClient, QuartzServiceClient, QuartzExecHistoryServiceClient).
o AGENT: Added support for tracking currently executing jobs and persisting their details in the agent DB (qda_q_exec_job table and quartz.executingJob.track agent config property).
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for storing intercepted logging events emitted by executed jobs in temporary files in the agent's work directory. It is also possible to trim the list of intercepted logging events and store only the last N records in the agent database (qd_q_exec_history table).
o AGENT, WEB: Added job chaining support.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded to use the latest QuartzDesk license API (1.1.x).
o WEB: Upgraded from ExtJS 4 to ExtJS 5.1.1.
o WEB: Migrated charts from ext-charts to sencha-charts and added various usability improvements.
o WEB: New color picker in all forms.
o WEB: Chart "Save As PNG/JPG/SVG" buttons replaced by "Preview & Save" that allows the user to save the chart image using the "Save As..." option in the native (browser) context menu.
o WEB: Removed deprecated QuartzService (QuartzAnywhere) web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Removed deprecated MessageReceiverService web-service endpoints v1.0 - v4.0.
o WEB: Manual Quartz triggers created in the GUI when the user selects a job and triggers a job now use the QD_MANUAL trigger group name and PT_ trigger name.
o WEB: Added new QuartzExecHistoryService web-service that allows integrators to access job and trigger execution history records through a single endpoint SOAP-based interface. The web-service is accessible at /services/quartz_exec_history/v1_0/QuartzExecHistoryService.
o WEB: Security role checking performed by SOAP interceptors rather than by the container. Therefore users no longer see 403 error when accessing web-services with a principal that does not have the required security role and they get the SecurityFault declared in the WSDL.
o WEB: Deprecated web-service usage checks moved from web-service endpoint implementations to a SOAP interceptor that produces a warning message in quartzdesk.log in case the user accesses deprecated web-service endpoint.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Removed extraneous scrollbars that were shown in the scheduler tab in some browsers.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed the "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.commons.lang.DateUtils" error when starting old data purging maintenance tasks.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed 'ext.org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: ReferenceError: "precedingExecHistory" is not defined.' error that occurs if the job's execution history is empty and a notification rule accesses the precedingExecHistory scripting variable.
Fixed Bugs:
o API: Added fix for "RuntimeException: Unexpected Quartz trigger type: null" errors are can occur while reindexing triggers upon Quartz scheduler's startup in case the Quartz-enabled application creates and deletes triggers at a very fast pace.
o WEB: Fixed security issue with JMX auth passwords showing up in the log.
o AGENT: Fixed the way the WebLogic Server version is determined. This prevents IllegalStateException errors when running the agent on WLS installations with temporary Oracle patches applied in which case the WLS API returns version as "WebLogic Server Temporary ..." rather than expected "WebLogic Server a.b.c.d ...".
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed bug that prevented viewing of runtime log data of executing jobs in the Executing Jobs tab.
New features:
o AGENT: Added RMI server connector to the agent so that users no longer need to set com.sun.management.jmxremote.* JVM system properties to enable remote JMX RMI access to the JVM.
o AGENT: Added RMI security support to the RMI server connector.
o AGENT: Added SASL security support to the JMXMP server connector.
o WEB: Added support for secure RMI, JMXMP and REMOTING-JMX scheduler connections.
o WEB: Added new com.quartzdesk.api.web.initializer.IApplicationInitializer API that can be implemented when embedding QuartzDesk Web Application in a custom container. This API allows programmatic initialization of the application without relying on the quartzdesk.work.dir JVM system property.
Changes:
o AGENT, WEB: Upgraded multiple third-party libraries packaged with the agent and web application (e.g. slf4j, logback, etc.).
o WEB: Database tables used by the internal Quartz scheduler embedded in the web application now use 'qd_qrtz_' table prefix rather than the default 'qrtz_' prefix.
o WEB: Added new versions of the ConnectionService (2.0) and QuartzService (6.0) web-services due to security-related changes to JMX connection data model.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed license signature verification error that could be thrown if the agent used a buggy JAXB2 implementation on the classpath (error caused by an xsd:date serialization bug in older JAXB2 releases).
o AGENT: Fixed NPE that occurred during the initialization of the jobs and triggers index when the scheduler MBean could not be found.
o WEB: Fixed an issue that occasionally caused duplicate scheduler connections and folders being shown in the main navigation tree view.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed "java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgent.getSchedulingEventInterceptor(..." error that may prevent the QuartzDesk Web Application from starting if the JVM Agent has been deployed on the same JVM.
New features:
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for full-text searching in Jobs, Triggers, Execution History and Execution Notifications grids.
o AGENT, WEB: Added support for MS SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Oracle 10.2 (10g R2).
o WEB: Added new ConnectionService web-service to allow external application to manage scheduler connections and folders that are displayed in the GUI.
o API: Improved logging in all logging appenders (Log4j, Log4j2, Logback) and handlers (JUL).
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Fixed AgentMessagePurgingJob cron schedule. The job was originally triggered every minute between 1am and 2am. Now it is triggered only once at 1am.
o WEB: SOAPFaults produced by all web-services (ConnectionService, MessageReceiverService, QuartzService) are now fully populated with an error-specific message and complete stack traces leading to the root cause error.
o AGENT: Fixed wrong JDBC driver class name in the sample quartzdesk-agent.properties (was org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource, now org.h2.Driver).
Changes:
o AGENT: JXMMP connector is now started by the agent in a daemon thread to prevent the JVM from exiting (JVM waits for all non-daemon threads to finish before it can exit).
o AGENT: Optimized fetching of execution history records from DB by excluding blob columns from result sets.
o AGENT: Reworked automatic registration of job and scheduler listeners with detected Quartz scheduler instances.
o AGENT: Major refactoring of the Quartz scheduler and job execution event listeners.
o WEB: Fixed the "Context initialization failed java.lang.IllegalArgumentException" problem that may occur during startup with JDK 1.8. This was actually a Spring issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-10292) and it was resolved by upgrading to the latest stable Spring release 4.1.1.
o WEB: Added new versions of the QuartzService and MessageReceiverService web-services that use new XSD types ("http://service.quartzdesk.com/types/v1_0/" namespace). In this and future QuartzDesk release this makes it possible to use independent versioning for individual web-services. Previously any change to shared types resulted in a new version of all web-services.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Improved checks for trigger existence to avoid NPE that could occur under rare circumstances while adding a new trigger.
o WEB (TECH-G174R2960A): Fixed disappearing of currently executing jobs in the Currently Executing Jobs grid whose firing triggers have been deleted while the jobs are still running. Now the running jobs remain in the grid and can be accessed.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed QuartzDesk webapp deployment and runtime issues on JBoss caused by colliding classes in the com.quartzdesk.domain package exposed by the QuartzDesk Agent and the same classes present in the QuartzDesk web application.
o AGENT: Fixed "com.quartzdesk.agent.api.AgentException: Error getting database schema SQL upgrade script URLs." error when upgrading the QuartzDesk Agent that has been configured to use an H2 database.
Changes:
o WEB: Improved error reporting of the executing job interrupt operation.
Fixed Bugs:
o WEB: Updated bundled JSTL lib from 1.2 to 1.2.1 to fix occasional NullPointerExceptions that can occur when the browser initiates multiple parallel requests for dynamically generated JS resources (Msg.js, LicensedProductFeatures.js etc.). The issue was caused by a synchronization bug in the JSTL 1.2 validator implementation.
o WEB: Fixed occasional "TypeError: QDesk.util.constant is undefined.", "QDesk.util.constant.ActionUrl is undefined" etc. JavaScript errors in browser console while loading the application.
New features:
o AGENT: The agent can automatically start a JMXMP connector. Therefore users are no longer required to specify the JMX/RMI related Java system properties to start the JMX/RMI connector and they can safely switch to using the JMXMP connector. The JMXMP protocol is a firewall-friendly alternative to the commonly used JMX/RMI protocol.
o AGENT: The agent can now be also loaded dynamically into the JVM by using the Sun/Oracle Attach API, or an alternative (proprietary) API. This is suitable for cases where users wish to bundle the agent with their application (typically a standalone Java application) and/or do not want to start the JVM with the javaagent JVM argument and the quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property.
o AGENT: Added new AgentInitializer API and initializerClass agent option. The value of this option is expected to be a FQCN of a class name implementing the com.quartzdesk.agent.api.IAgentInitializer interface. This option makes it possible to programmatically initialize and register the agent with the JVM that supports the Attach API. This new API and agent option is suitable for standalone applications that wish to have full control over agent initialization.
o AGENT: Added support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. H2 support in the agent is intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk JVM Agent Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryPurgingJob that purges old execution history records in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 400 days). Purging of old execution history records is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentExecHistoryLogPurgingJob that purges collected job execution log data in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. This job purges logs of execution history records that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days). Purging of execution history logs is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Added a new job AgentMessagePurgingJob that purges old processed and permanently failed messages in QuartzDesk JVM Agent databases used by managed schedulers. The job purges messages that are older than the specified number of days (default is 30 days for processed messages and 60 days for permanently failed messages). Purging of old processed and permanently failed messages is disabled by default and it can be enabled in scheduler Settings.
o WEB: Extended support for H2 database profile. All H2 operating modes (in-memory, file and tcp) are supported. Previously the H2 database profile was only supported for the one-step installation mode. H2 support in the web application intended primarily for development and experimental purposes. All QuartzDesk Web Application Installation and Upgrade Guides updated accordingly.
o WEB: Added resizable splitters to the Jobs and Triggers tabs.
o WEB: Added tooltips to all forms. For example, all Edit Trigger forms have useful tooltips describing the trigger as well as individual trigger attributes.
Fixed Bugs:
o AGENT: Fixed a logback initialization issue (ext.ch.qos.logback.core.util.IncompatibleClassException) when the agent finds a logback.groovy, logback-test.xml, or logback.xml Logback configuration file on its classpath, or when the Logback configuration file is specified using the logback.configurationFile JVM system property.
o AGENT, WEB: Fixed "org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'type'. One of '{issue-date}' is expected." thrown during agent/web-app startup on WebLogic 12c.
o API: Fixed NPE in com.quartzdesk.api.agent.log.jul.JulInterceptionHandler thrown by the configured handler when the Agent is not installed.
o WEB: Added a context menu (with a single menu item "Delete") to all job data map grids.
o WEB: 'Max fetch date' and 'Max fetch size' tool bar option in Execution History grids are re-enabled after a data load error occurred. Previously these options were re-enabled only after a successful data load.
o WEB: Fixed a bug with the Send Test Message button not working when editing a new message channel profile.
o WEB: Excluded org.slf4j and org.slf4j.impl JBoss modules in jboss-deployment-structure.xml to make QuartzDesk log through the appenders configured in the logback.xml file located in the QuartzDesk work directory.
Updates:
o AGENT: Users have 4 options to specify the agent work directory location: (1) Use the standard quartzdesk-agent.work.dir JVM property, or (2) use the new workDir Java agent option (-javaagent:=workDir=), (3) let the agent use the directory the agent JAR file is located in, or (4) use the new AgentInitializer API to programmatically initialize the agent.
o WEB: Significant (50%+) improvement in the application load/startup time.
o WEB: All QuartzDesk internal Quartz jobs are now interruptible. Therefore you can interrupt these jobs using either the QuartzDesk web application GUI, or the QuartzAnywhere web-service API.
o WEB: GlassFish deployment descriptor (glassfish-web.xml) now enforces parent-last class-loading order.
o WEB: QuartzDesk Web application data source name changed to jdbc/QuartzDeskDS.
o WEB: Added new settings (Maintenance Tasks configuration values) to the Edit Scheduler Connection dialog.
o WEB: Added support for auto-disabling dialog form fields based on the installed QuartzDesk edition. This affects the Application Settings and the updated Edit Scheduler Connection dialogs.
o WEB: Tooltips are no longer automatically dismissed after 5 seconds. They stay visible until the user hovers the mouse outside of the tooltip-enabled element.
