Known Issues
Stored Logic State
In release 7.13 and later, we discovered that existing stored logic was in an UNKNOWN state on a Deploy report, which caused deployment to fail. We have reviewed desired behavior and will implement a storedLogicValidityAction to warn, not error, when pre-existing objects that are not part of the deployment show changes from Valid to Invalid.
Limited Forecast does not include autoSynonymForObjects changeset schemas in profiling
In release 7.13 and later, if you use Limited Forecast in Oracle multi-schema projects with auto synonyms, you might get errors about the schema targeted by an auto synonym change being for a schema that cannot be managed, even though that schema is included in the project definition. If you encounter such errors with version 7.18, use Full Forecast instead of Limited Forecast. (DAT-8757)
Missing SSH Preferences in Liquibase Enterprise & Business GUI
After upgrading Datical DB to later versions, you might have issues with the SSH feature being unavailable to generate the SSH key via the Eclipse GUI. To return SSH in Preferences, follow these steps:
In the Datical DB GUI, select Help > Install New Software.
In the Work with field of the Install dialog box, paste in this link: https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2018-12 then hit enter.
Expand open the Collaboration category.
Enable the checkbox to select Git integration for Eclipse, and then select Next to install it.
When it finishes installing, you will be prompted to restart.
Open File > Preferences > General > Network Connections. You should now have a new SSH2 option under Network Connections.
Deprecation of the Oracle Accelerator JDBC Driver
Because of a change in deployment trends and continued improvement of the performance of Datical DB, the Oracle Accelerator JDBC Driver (compression driver) was removed from our driver repository in versions 7.16 and higher. The driver was previously available with versions 7.15 and lower.
Liquibase Enterprise & Business cannot pick up SQLPATH environment variable on Windows
In release 7.6 and later, we updated the version of instantclient, which provides SQLPLUS 12.2.0.1.0. This version of SQLPLUS contains a bug: SQL PLUS 12.2 NOT OBSERVING SQLPATH IN REGISTRY OR ENV VARIABLE FOR LOGIN.SQL. As a workaround, use SQLPLUS 12.1 on Windows. (DAT-7598)

Deployment Monitoring Console Update Instructions
The process of updating the Deployment Monitoring Console from version 7.0 or later to the latest version is similar to the installation process.
Notable Changes
DATAPUMP Code Optimization: DAT-9580
In Liquibase v7.18 the export process in Oracle is scaled and optimized with it’s read, write, read, write method. The code was modified to capture logs up front in memory and produce simultaneously so the process time is reduced to 6-8 minutes. This results in significant performance gains while backing up Oracle.
Maven Version Update: DAT-9541 and 8302
The docker test cucumber jdk 11 maven version from 3.63 to 3.8.4 is up to date and pushed to the newly built container.
DATICAL_SPERRORLOG table permissions for CREATE ANY TABLE or DROP ANY TABLE: DAT-2458
If a user does not have CREATE/ DROP ANY TABLE privileges, then a default table for SPERRORLOG records any errors that occur.
Infrastructure Update: DAT-9492
AdoptOpenJDK is both shipped with Liquibase Enterprise plus DMC, and used internally to test our infrastructure. This allows us to create consistency between what is used by customers and our internal team.
