Scenario

SINCE 4.1.35 SINCE 4.2.0

The limits, Comment count limit and Comment char length limit, have moved from Profile Config > Issues into Profile Config > Project-mappings > edit project-mapping > email filters. However, the implementation of the limits has a bug in certain versions that allows users to enter -1 values in the default project-mapping, which is an illegal character for the default project-mapping.

Work around for versions 4.1.35-4.1.41 and 4.2.0

The work around is to not enter -1 as the CommentCountLimit and CommentMaxCharsLimit.

The work around applies to the following versions:

  • All versions between 4.1.35 and 4.1.41

  • 4.2.0

Versions of JEMH that fix the bug: from 4.1.42 and from 4.2.1

since 4.1.42 Since 4.2.1

-1 is no longer a valid value for Comment count limit and Comment char length limit in the following versions:

  • 4.1.42

  • 4.2.1
