Known issues

The current list of known issue is as follows:

Issue Number Description Workaround
WSM-21474 In 8.5.7, running curl commands after exporting the WSG library path (for example, using LD_LIBRARY_PATH) may result in errors due to a conflict between the version of curl used by the system and the version of libcurl used by WSG. Run curl commands in a clean shell session without the custom library path, or unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH before using curl.
WSM-21472 In 8.5.7, when changing the Policy Broker mode to replica, the message "Possible unsupported PostgreSQL version (140500) 14.5, defaulting to support for latest" appears in the PgSetup output, even though the switch completes successfully. This message is harmless and can be ignored. PostgreSQL 14.5 is supported. No further action is needed.
WSM-21765 On Oracle Linux 8, after proxy installation, WCG service does not start immediately after system reboot. It starts after 5 minutes, and the crontab entry for Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) is missing. The issue occurs due to incorrect permissions on /etc/rc.d/init.d/WCG. Update the permissions of /etc/rc.d/init.d/WCG to ensure proper service startup and MRTG crontab creation.
WSM-21583 On Windows, after upgrading using Unified_Installer, services may not start automatically post-reboot. An error message is shown at the end of the upgrade process, and several services including Control Service may remain stopped. Start the affected services manually using the WebsenseAdmin utility or Windows services.
