New features
No new features have been introduced in this release of Enterprise Server.
Changes
The following changes have been made in this version of Enterprise Server:
- RabbitMQ integration: configuring connection timeouts. When Enterprise Server connects to RabbitMQ it sends HTTP requests using the REST protocol or the AMQP protocol. The timeout period for both protocols has been lowered and can now also be controlled through the following options in the configserver.php file:
- RABBITMQ_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT. When Enterprise Server connects to RabbitMQ, it sends HTTP requests. The timeout period for these requests has been set to 2 seconds and can be controlled through this option.
Note: The higher the number, the more the Enterprise workflow operations are delayed in case RabbitMQ is suddenly no longer accessible. The lower the number, the higher the risk of losing push message notifications.
- RABBITMQ_EXECUTION_TIMEOUT. During a workflow operation (such as file check-in, save version, and so on), Enterprise Server invokes RabbitMQ by sending HTTP requests. The timeout period for these requests has been set to 2 seconds and can be controlled through this option.
Note: The higher the number, the more the Enterprise workflow operations are delayed in case RabbitMQ is suddenly operating very slow. The lower the number, the higher the risk of losing push message notifications.
For more information, see Integrating RabbitMQ in Enterprise Server 10.
- RabbitMQ integration: Improving performance by excluding users from receiving notifications. When Enterprise Server connects to RabbitMQ, it sends HTTP requests for each Brand that a user has access to. This includes Issues for which the Overrule Brand option is enabled.
Each request takes a few milliseconds to complete, so even when a user has access to a few dozen Brands the process does not take long. When a user has access to a significantly high number of Brands though, the log-on duration can be negatively impacted.
While it is common practice for Enterprise installations to limit the number of Brands that a user has access to, some users (such as Brand administrators or system administrators) will typically have access to a high number of Brands. However, for those users the push message notifications may be not important.
These users can now be excluded from receiving notifications by setting the RABBITMQ_MAX_PUBLICATIONS option in configserver.php. In it, the maximum number of Brands that a user can have access to in order to receive notifications through RabbitMQ is specified.
When the number of Brands that a user has access to is lower than or equal to the defined maximum, notifications are sent to that user by RabbitMQ.
When the number of Brands that a user has access to is higher than the defined maximum, notifications are not sent to that user by RabbitMQ.
The users that are excluded from receiving notifications by RabbitMQ as a result of setting this option can be seen by running the RabbitMQ test on the Health Check page. It will also show the number of Brands and overruled Issues that each user has access to.
For more information, see Integrating RabbitMQ in Enterprise Server 10.
- RabbitMQ integration: Setting up Enterprise Server jobs to clean up message queues. When RabbitMQ is temporarily down during production hours, Enterprise Server can no longer push message notifications.
Enterprise Server can also not remove message queues in RabbitMQ when tickets expire or when users log off.
The result of both scenarios is that the resource administration of RabbitMQ may get out-of-sync.
If RabbitMQ would remain down for many hours while many users are connected, many message queues could remain abandoned in RabbitMQ forever. If this problem repeats itself many times, there is a potential risk that RabbitMQ gets exhausted by using too many resources.
For this purpose, message queues in RabbitMQ can now be periodically cleaned up by running the Enterprise Server Job named AutoCleanRabbitMQ.
For more information, see Integrating RabbitMQ in Enterprise Server 10.

Changes
The following change has been made in this version of Enterprise Server:
- MadeToPrint integration: When an image or article is placed more than 50 times and the file is modified by a user, no MadeToPrint jobs are generated anymore for the affected layouts.

Enterprise Server 10.4.1 build 240
Release date: 22 May 2018
Downloads
The download files for this version of Enterprise Server can be found in the Release announcement.
New features
The following feature has been introduced in this release of Enterprise Server:
- Automatically cleaning up the WEBEDIT folder. A Server Job named 'AutoCleanWebEditDir' has been added which can be used for periodically cleaning up the WEBEDIT folder. This folder is used by InDesign Server for storing previews and write-to-fit calculations, and by Enterprise Server to create workspaces when articles are edited in Content Station (Aurora). For more information, see Working with Enterprise Server Jobs in Enterprise Server 10 and Cleaning up temp files in Enterprise.
Changes
The following changes have been made in this version of Enterprise Server:
- The business connector named 'Session_EnterpriseConnector' has been deprecated from Enterprise Server version 10.4.1 onwards and will be removed in Enterprise Server version 10.5.0.
This business connector interface was introduced in Enterprise Server 8.2 and can be found at the following location in an Enterprise Server installation:
- Enterprise/server/interfaces/plugins/connectors/Session_EnterpriseConnector.class.php
It contains a ticketExpirationReset()
function that was introduced for the Elvis integration to keep the Elvis sessions valid for the Enterprise users. It was later decided to implement a different solution and as a result, this business connector interface is no longer used. We want to remove the interface because it causes a small delay for every Web service in Enterprise.
Note: If you have developed a custom server plug-in for Enterprise Server that implements the Session business connector interface, check if the |
- The Enterprise Server property 'MasterId' (used in the Related pages feature) can now be set via the setObjectProperties service. For more information about using this service, see The Web Services SDK of Enterprise Server 10.
- Removing connections. When the maximum number of concurrent users has been reached, connections can be freed by forcefully removing tickets. The page on which this is done has been restructured and now also shows all connections instead of a maximum of 20.
