Known Issues: KnowledgeTree Server

  • KTS-3224

Attempting to export a folder with the following folder name fails: ÃÄÅÁÁÂÄÆæàáäåãâă ß ÊÉỄëéèėèêČčć¢ĐđğÍĺľíïìîĹĽ ŇñňÖỠỖÒÓỚóôöòðõøŔ੶šşŤťţ Ứ ÜÛÚÙüúûùųÝýÿŽżžçðþ


  • KTS-3153

In KnowledgeTree's web interface, when browsing to a folder that exists as a sub-folder (child folder) in a higher level folder (the parent folder), and the parent folder has a folder name containing an ampersand character '&'; then, note that the breadcrumb navigation may display '.' instead of the full name of the parent folder.


  • Upgrade installer does not stop MySQL processes, causing upgrade to fail

On some systems (Linux and Windows / Community Edition and Commercial Edition), the upgrade installer is not automatically stopping the MySQL process and this is causing upgrades to 3.5.2 to fail. Please ensure that the MySQL process for KnowledgeTree is stopped before upgrading. See Important Upgrade Notes for KnowledgeTree to find out more about stopping MySQL.


Known Issues: KnowledgeTree Client Tools for Windows

BBS-1329: This error was reported during testing in the context of an exception that occurred while adding an email to the DMS. However, it has been found to occur infrequently, and is not limited to this use case. This issue may typically occur during general interactions with Office, and is caused by memory access violations in the COM interaction with Microsoft Office.
