The following issues have been resolved in this release of SDL WorldServer.
ComponentIDDescription
Enhancement WS-8060, WS-7514, WS-8030Part of our constant effort to bring WorldServer up to date with the latest technologies, this release of WorldServer supports Tomcat 7.0.63. The upgrade also solved a WorldServer connectivity issue which occasionally caused the UI to stop responding. Moreover, the default Tomcat configuration is set for compression for both http and https protocols, so no other WorldServer configuration of this capability is needed.
WS-7388The supported Oracle version in WorldServer is now 12c, and we recommend that you upgrade from Oracle 10, which is no longer supported.
WS-8078From now on, you can easily see all the deployed hotfixes and installations on a specific system in an easy-to-use table format, provided you are a WorldServer administrator or you have been given rights in this respect. Go to Management > Administration > System Information for detailed information on the:
  • server name
  • WorldServer version the hotfix is applied to
  • hotfix version
  • description of the hotfix
  • installation date
  • changes performed.

This table retrieves information from an SDL hosted server, except for the hotfix information, which is managed by your WorldServer administrator.

WS-7881You can now configure WorldServer to send e-mails to users when a job is successful or fails. Previous settings enabled users to receive e-mails only when tasks or issues were assigned.
WS-7836Administrators can choose which webservices and methods are available to users by configuring the webservices.properties file.
WS-7964With WorldServer 10.4.4. a web services client now has the possibility to start project tasks after the project's creation via a new web services method: a new parameter was added in SDK , namely startTasks, and the startTasks method was added to start tasks after creating the project

There is a new log configuration file, namely LogHostProcess.config, that allows our users to change dynamically the logging levels without the need of restarting the FTS server. Nevertheless, we still support the old way of defining logging settings.

Also, there is new log settings file, namely LogLaunched.config, doing the same for the FTS Launcher logs.

WS-8062, WS-8173, WS-8041A number of filters have been added to match the advancements on the SDL Trados Studio File Types:
  • Microsoft World 2007-2016 Studio File Type. The default Word filter remains unchanged, the new filter (added because it offers support for Google DOCX) is in Beta version until the next WorldServer release.
  • Bilingual Excel
  • Portable Objects
  • Subrip
  • New XML configuration: MadCap
  • New XML configuration: Authorit

The HTML Studio File Type is now deprecated and we recommend that you stop using it as soon as possible. In exchange, we recommend that you turn to the latest version of this File Type: HTML 5.

WS-8046, WS-7909, WS-7978A performance issue has been implemented for Browser Workbench, which now operates the TM and TD matches as background processes, to avoid slowing down the system. Also, the UI is no longer refreshed every time a comment is added, updated or removed.
