19.1.1​

Released: 2019

This release replaces the logging framework and introduces a new installer format, embedded Java, a new password encoding mechanism, and a renamed configuration file.

Migration considerations​

  • New installer format. Files are now extracted from a zip file into the desired installation directory rather than using a traditional installer.
  • Embedded Java included. The connector now ships with an embedded Java version (OpenJDK 11). There is no longer a dependency on the Java version installed on the host system.
  • New password encoding mechanism. Use the EncryptValue.exe utility to encode passwords for the configuration file, and regenerate any values carried over from an earlier release. The utility encodes rather than encrypts — see Installation for what that does and does not protect.
  • Configuration file renamed. The configuration file has been renamed from Agent.config to Connector.config.

Fixes​

  • Replaced log4j with slf4j and logback. Updated the logging framework to address security and compatibility concerns.
