Till now all ViewActions were labeled with the prefix "View", e. g. MBO-ViewProducts or should be.

[+/-]Two separate web server instances for static files and application requests [Technical requirement] [EPG-12524]: By default ePages ships with the Apache web server on Linux systems.

In very large ePages installations this may lead to scaling problems.

Quoting Wikipedia: "Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is the next-generation Internet Layer protocol for packet-switched internetworks and the Internet. IPv4 is currently the dominant Internet Protocol version, and was the first to receive widespread use. In December 1998, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) designated IPv6 as the successor to version 4 by the publication of a Standards Track specification, RFC 2460.
[...]
During the first decade of operation of the TCP/IP-based Internet, by the late 1980s, it became apparent that methods had to be developed to conserve address space. In the early 1990s, even after the introduction of classless network redesign, it became clear that this would not suffice to prevent IPv4 address exhaustion and that further changes to the Internet infrastructure were needed." See IPv6 for the full article.

As of now all ePages components fully support IPv6. For a detailed description of ePages 6 and IPv6 consult the technical documentation:

[+/-]Database: Database storedb and sitedb were created with dsync=off [DB, Regression, Technical requirement] [EPG-10909]

The setup routine of ePages 6.0.5 creates databases storedb and sitedb with the option dsync turned off. This may lead to loss of data under some cirumstances.

As modern filesystems cache the data that has to be written to disk in order to increase IO performance, that data may get lost in case of a power outage, if the application program does not ensure that all data has really been saved by forcing the underlying operating system to write all cached data to disk. The Sybase database server as one part of the ePages system ensures this data safety with the dsync option, which can be set for each database.

[+/-]Performance: Optimize IIS settings to increase performance of windows installations [Technical requirement] [EPG-10893]

Open IIS >> Application Pools >> ePagesApplicationPool >> Properties >> Recycling:
Set "Recycle worker process (in min)" to "1740":
Open IIS >> Application Pools >> ePagesApplicationPool >> Properties >> Performance:
Set "Shutdown worker processes after being idle for (time in minutes)" to "60":
Set " Maximum number of worker processes" to "12"

The value "Maximum number of worker processes" has to be the same value as the number of ePages application servers defined in the Webinterface.conf of your installation. It is set to 12 via installation. That value complies to the number of application servers of a "Merchant Pro" license.
Keep in mind: If you change the number of application servers in the Webinterface.conf change the value of "Maximum number of worker processes" in the IIS accordingly. Otherwise some application server wont get requests.

The prices of the customer group price list will be applied to that customer if no prices for the product are defined in the customer price list but in the customer group price list.
