This release has quite a few bug fixes and improvements. It is also the first ControlTier release distributed in RPM packages.

Release 3.4.9 has both the traditional installer packages (zip,jar), and two RPM packages: ctier-server and ctier-client. The ctier-server is the full server installation with the embedded client. The ctier-client includes the client installation only allowing simpler package distribution and installation for client nodes.

Notable bug fixes:

• Workflows with command error handlers may not have been passing options correctly to the error handler command (Bug #2888149).
• Using JNDI authorization could cause a NPE when roles exist in the directory without any members (Bug #2887979).
• The ctl-depot -a remove action was not removing everything cleanly (Bug #2880656).
• The ClientInstaller module did not make use of the server.hostname property for the installer (Bug #2894072).
• Dispatching commands was incorrectly using the hostname to determine if the node was local or not (Bug #2893443).
• Reportcenter's "Command" filter was not working (Bug #2899533).
• Jobcenter would not list scheduled jobs created by another user (Bug #2896263).
• Sending mail via a success/error handler was not working with java 1.6 (Bug #2880643).

Notable Improvements:

• Type.xml generation on the server: Workbench now generates type.xml files when modules are packaged, allowing easier transition to source-based module development. (Request #2898788).
• script-exec support for "dav://" script paths: You can now use "dav://" URLs in your calls to script-exec (Request #2886738).
