Known Issues in this Fix Pack
-----------------------------
General ControlSuite:
---------------------
1628408 - On Windows Server 2012R2, ControlSuite configuration assistant would fail to configure
the licensing server if system is missing the required security ciphers.
Workaround: Install at least one of the following cipher suites before installing
and configuring the licensing server.
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 (0xc028)
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0xc027)
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA (0xc014)
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA (0xc013)
Note: this can be done by properly configuring TLS cipher suite order
in SSL configuration settings by using the Group Policy Management Console.
AutoStore:
---------
1459644 - Micro Focus (HP Trim in ControlSuite 1.1) component's license expires after
upgrading from ControlSuite 1.x to ControlSuite 1.2.
Workaround: Manually refresh the license through Configuration Assistant.

option is active in the PIM component and the original document is blank.
Workaround: Do not process blank-only documents.
1590167 - After upgrading from an earlier ControlSuite 1.x version to ControlSuite 1.2 the Windream
component still appears in APD with a red X icon.
Workaround: The component can be hidden manually.

2010 may still appear in some components.

1596384 - OCR component may report an error when 2 or more workflows are run
simultaneously.

configuration is not saved.
Workaround: Save the configuration.
1597771 - WebCapture throws an exception when changing the field type from
Lookup List to List and opening its properties.

and re-create it.

resolve to the Fully Qualified Domain Name, which was used for the
device address in DRS.
1599687 - Missing acceleration keys on the SharePoint General tab.

regasm -codebase "<Autostore install folder>\KTARoute\Kofax.AutoStore.TotalAgility.Route.dll".
1633749 - OPBarcode documentation contains incorrect RegExp example
Workaround: Extend the regular expression with a closing element,
either with [\s\S] or [^\x00] when searching for unicode text.
1680914 - When reducing the number of licenses assigned to a ControlSuite License Server
in certain cases, the AutoStore licensing page license amount validation
might fail at Configuration Assistant AutoStore licensing page and
the user is not able to proceed beyond that screen.
Workaround:
Reduce the number of licenses assigned to all AutoStore servers connecting
to the given License Server to the new desired amount prior to assigning the
reduced amount of licenses to the Local License server, so the sum of
AutoStore assigned licenses does not exceed the number of available licenses
on the ControlSuite License Server.

SSO instructions for external application in Equitrac FUJIFILM ECSP
=====================================================================
You can use SSO when you have logged in to Equitrac with AutoStore set up as
an external application that uses Windows Authentication. If your authentication
uses a domain account in the form of Domain\EQusername or EQusername only,
Equitrac will check if the user has any authenticated session, and then send the
EQusername from Equitrac to AutoStore as evidence of the session. This ensures
that SSO authentication is valid and in use.
Installing Equitrac USB Card Reader Plugin for FUJIFILM devices
===============================================================
Use the KofaxCardReaderPluginForFujifilm-1.1.0.1.0.84 to install Equitrac
USB Card Reader Plugin to your FUJIFILM devices.
Refer to the existing documentation for the Fuji Xerox client which can be also
found in the ControlSuite Web Help for instruction to install the plugin.
Note:
1. This installer can work with TLS 1.2 or later.
2. This installer is for FUJIFILM devices only. It cannot install the plugin
on Fuji Xerox devices. Use old, existing installer for that installation.
