    I thought I'd create a dedicated thread for discussion of the AE v24 problems we've identified. I hope this will help others who are considering (or are in the process of) upgrading to v24.

    Description
    Jira ID KB article
    Problems with Package.UTF8.DB.Migration v1.0.2 (E.g., mistakes in finalize SQL statements) PCK_UTF8_DB-1
    AWI rename dialog box imposes old v21 length validation on Title field (255 instead of 512) AE-36447 KB281316
    Incorrect field length validation during XML import for Title, Archive key 1, and Archive key 2 fields AE-36576
    Problems with IntAccount field (Inconsistent length validation, import via REST API crashes WPs) AE-36575
    Shift-F10 keyboard shortcut for displaying contextual menu does not work. AE-36660
    Documentation of AE object attributes needs to be updated. DOCU-5771

    Most of these problems are directly or indirectly related to UTF-8 support. I'll add Jira IDs & links to KB articles when they become available.

    Hi @Michael A. Lowry,

    thanks for sharing. I think you are doing an amazing job and sharing your findings with the community. This is something that should come from Broadcom itself, but unfortunately this is not the case.

    All of the AE problems I reported have been accepted as bugs. The problem with the DB migration action pack is still under investigation.

    The bugs are not listed in the known issues section of the AE v24.0.0 release notes, and so far there do not appear to be any KB articles.

    The problem with the UTF-8 migration tool has been accepted as a bug. It will be fixed in a forthcoming update to the package.

    Broadcom has begun to publish KB articles on the problems identified in v24.0.0. Several of these bugs are due to be fixed in Automic Automation v24.1.0, due in late June or early July 2024.
