In News, Product Releases, S-Filer/Portal


S-Filer Portal™ is a complete solution that allows large and small organizations to meet all their enterprise needs for secure file transfer and storage.

Okiok publishes version 4.20.12 of S-Filer/Portal™ secure transfer solution.

This version includes stability and reliability fixes, in addition to updating the solution’s libraries.

Fixes

  • Improvement to file upload stability: fixed an issue where uploads could intermittently fail with a connection error due to server thread handling, even when no actual error occurred during the transfer.
  • Fixed an issue where the navigation tree on the left did not correctly highlight the default community folder after logging in.
  • Fixed the displayed label to correctly reflect the maximum allowed limit of 3,000 characters.
  • Improved file cleanup performance: significantly improved the performance of the automated file cleanup process for large-scale deployments with a high volume of files.
  • Optimization of user session cleanup: The user session cleanup process now runs in smaller batches, avoiding timeouts and database errors in environments with a very large number of expired sessions.
  • Creation of database indexes during upgrades now uses online indexing (where supported), reducing table lock duration and minimizing disruption during upgrades on Oracle and SQL Server.
  • Improvement to the email address separator: in anonymous file transfers, email addresses can now be separated by spaces as well as semicolons, making it easier to paste addresses from other sources.
  • Improvement to the file re-encryption process: improved the re-encryption process to better handle special cases involving files shared with multiple recipients during storage migration scenarios.
  • Security fix of two critical vulnerabilities discovered in an internal OKIOK penetration test of the solution.

Breaking Changes

  • The database upgrade in this version and subsequent creates indexes “ONLINE” for performance reasons. In SQL Server, this feature is available in Enterprise, Developer and Azure SQL editions but is not present in Standard or Express editions. S-Filer always required SQL Server Enterprise edition, but this was not explicitly mentioned in the datasheet. Contact OKIOK support if you are using Standard edition in non production environments for a workaround.
