Here's a list of few noteworthy issues fixed in TeamForge 18.3 Update 1 and the instructions to apply TeamForge 18.3 Update 1.

Release Information

Released on: May 8, 2019
Update Version: 18.3.621-1247

Issues Fixed in TeamForge 18.3 Update 1 Release

Fixed an issue that displayed the Task Board statuses in reverse/incorrect order.

Post upgrade to TeamForge 18.3, deleting the flex fields in one of the trackers of a given project cleared the values of the flex fields in the artifacts of other trackers in the project. This issue is fixed.

Fixed an issue that prevented the Tracker table reports from being edited.

A new deploy hook script has been added to filter repositories with incorrect permissions (at the top level) and apply correct permissions on those repositories.

Fixed the issue due to which Phoenix (daemon) failed to start up during TeamForge provision after an upgrade.

Upgrade to Gerrit 18.3.12-2.14.20.
