General

  • When running Adobe Coldfusion versions 2018 Update 2013 or 2021 Update 3 and below, there are a few Query of Queries (QofQs) bugs that greatly affect the Calendar App. Try/Catch blocks have been added around key uses of QofQs in the app that are used to merge DateTime and Recurrence event records. These Try/Catch blocks will catch and log when these QofQs have failed. If you receive errors when rendering your calendar events or while attempting to create calendar event cache records please review the logs. If messages regarding QofQ failures have been generated please reach out to Adobe support (cfsup@adobe.com) and request the QofQs patch or install update releases greater than ACF 2018 update 13 or ACF 2021 update 3.

Bug Fixes

General

  • Updated date format mask to all lowercase to fix issue with dateformat parsing for newer versions of ACF

Components

  • Updated the getDateTimeFieldStruct method in the calEventDateTimeDAO component by moving the 'allDay' back to the “intFieldNameList” due to issue reported when creating calendar event cache on some configurations
  • Update the getEventsUnion method in the calEventsDAO component to replace QofQ UNION ALL with queryConcat workaround due to QofQ issue with CF2021 Updater 2.
  • Switched back to the original QofQ code since Adobe released a patch for the ACF2021 Updater 2 QofQ issue.
