Known Issues

• Attribute CSV exported from LFDS thows "File is partly broken" on import. This happens because Windows blocks the file on export, so you have to manually open its properties and unblock it before the import succeeds. (120001)
• When viewing the Laserfiche Directory Server Security Token Service configuration page locally, you may receive an HTTP 403.0 error. As a workaround, run the web browse as an administrator. (119847)
• Manually installing .NET Framework 3.5 after Laserfiche Directory Server can overwrite existing IIS script mappings and prevent the Directory Server Web Administration Console from loading properly. Manually recreate the necessary .NET 4 mappings by using the .NET 4 version of aspnet_regiis.exe. (119192)
• When installing Laserfiche Server 9.1 or earlier and registering against the Laserfiche Directory Server, you will be unable to allocate repository named users. As a workaround, register the application and generate the license from the Laserfiche Directory Server Web Administration site. (119074)
