ReportServer 3.3.0

by

The 3.3.0 version is now available for all users.

Some Important Features and Noteworthy Improvements for ReportServer RS3.3.0

Library Deletions and Upgrades

The following important libraries are upgraded in ReportServer 3.3.0:

  • Sencha GXT: upgraded to 4.0.2
  • GWT: upgraded to 2.8.2

These libraries basically determine the ReportServer’s client-side look-and-feel (among other functionalities).

Numerous other libraries were upgraded and some unnecessary libraries were deleted. Refer to the release notes for details.

Email Notifications

Users can be now notified when their password has been created the first time or when their password was changed (by an administrator). The notification is done via email (note that for this the mail server must be correctly configured). For this purpose, the following new configuration file is available: /etc/security/notifications.cf. This configuration file allows to configure the texts sent by email and further allows to disable this functionality, if desired.

Note that from RS 3.3.0 the old lostpassword.cf configuration file is no longer available. This configuration is now done in the new notifications.cf file. Please rename your old lostpassword.cf to notifications.cf after performing an upgrade.

<createdpassword disabled="false">
	<email>
		<subject>Email Subject</subject>
		<text>Email Text
			Username: ${user.getUsername()}
		</text>
	</email>
</createdpassword>
<changedpassword disabled="false">
	<email>
		<subject>Email Subject</subject>
		<text>Email Text
			Username: ${user.getUsername()}
		</text>
	</email>
</changedpassword>

The complete default notifications.cf file is the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
  <createdpassword disabled="false">
    <email>
      <subject>${msgs['net.datenwerke.security.ext.server.locale.DwSecurityMessages']['createdPasswordSubject']}</subject>
      <text>${msgs['net.datenwerke.security.ext.server.locale.DwSecurityMessages']['createdPasswordSalutation']} ${user.getFirstname()} ${user.getLastname()},

${msgs['net.datenwerke.security.ext.server.locale.DwSecurityMessages']['createdPasswordIntro']}

${user.getUsername()}

${msgs['net.datenwerke.security.ext.server.locale.DwSecurityMessages']['createdPasswordEnd']}

      </text>

${msgs['net.datenwerke.security.ext.server.locale.DwSecurityMessages']['changedPasswordIntro']}

${user.getUsername()}

${msgs['net.datenwerke.security.ext.server.locale.DwSecurityMessages']['changedPasswordEnd']}
      </text>
    </email>
  </changedpassword>
  <lostpassword indicateWrongUsername="false">
    <email>
      <subject>${msgs['net.datenwerke.rs.passwordpolicy.service.locale.PasswordPolicyMessages']['lostPasswordSubject']}</subject>
      <text>${msgs['net.datenwerke.rs.passwordpolicy.service.locale.PasswordPolicyMessages']['lostPasswordSalutation']} ${user.getFirstname()} ${user.getLastname()},

${msgs['net.datenwerke.rs.passwordpolicy.service.locale.PasswordPolicyMessages']['lostPasswordIntro']}

        ${msgs['net.datenwerke.rs.passwordpolicy.service.locale.PasswordPolicyMessages']['lostPasswordUsername']}: ${user.getUsername()}
        ${msgs['net.datenwerke.rs.passwordpolicy.service.locale.PasswordPolicyMessages']['lostPasswordPassword']}: ${password}

 ${msgs['net.datenwerke.rs.passwordpolicy.service.locale.PasswordPolicyMessages']['lostPasswordEnd']}
      </text>
    </email>
  </lostpassword>
</configuration>

Currency Locales

The currency locales may be now configured in the following section of the /etc/main/localization.cf file:

<currencies>
       <currency language="de" region="DE">currencyEuro</currency>
       <currency language="en" region="US">currencyDollar</currency>
       <currency language="en" region="GB">currencyPound</currency>
       <currency language="ar" region="AE">AED</currency>
       <currency language="ps" region="AF">AFN</currency>
       ...
</currencies>

In the example above, the Euro currency is localized to the de_DE locale. If you need to change this, e.g. to fr_FR, you may change this to:

<currencies>
       <currency language="fr" region="FR">currencyEuro</currency>
       <currency language="en" region="US">currencyDollar</currency>
       <currency language="en" region="GB">currencyPound</currency>
       <currency language="ar" region="AE">AED</currency>
       <currency language="ps" region="AF">AFN</currency>
       ...
</currencies>

As currency is locale-specific, the format may change depending on the locale configured here.
For example, 123456.79 dollars will be printed as follows in the default locale:

US$123,456.79

In en_US locale, the same will be printed as:

$123,456.79

Note that you have to restart ReportServer if you change your currency locale configuration.

More details on currency locales may be found here: http://www.gwtproject.org/javadoc/latest/com/google/gwt/i18n/client/NumberFormat.html. The complete default localization.cf file is the following:
