Known Issues
Installing OLConnect Send on a machine with Connect installed.
When OL Connect Send Plug-Ins are installed (either standalone or via a Workflow installation)
on the same machine as Connect, an interference between OL Connect Send's internal
Database and that of Connect may occur, which will block a browser popup on that same
machine.
This issue can be fixed by applying a startup wait to the Connect Server Service.
If the issue occurs during runtime, restarting the Connect Server Service will fix the issue.
OLConnect Send issues under Microsoft Edge browser.
l Issues with using the built-in Windows 10 default "Administrator" account and the OL
Connect Send Client. This is due to Windows disallowing the opening an Edge browser
whilst running under this account. This blocks interaction with the printer driver.
l The Microsoft Edge browser fails to display web pages when Workflow's CORS option (in
the HTTP Server Input 2 section) is set to "*". This issue will be resolved in a future
release.
Installation Paths with Multi-Byte Characters
When installing the Chinese (Traditional or Simplified) or Japanese versions of Connect, if the
user specifies an alternative installation path containing multi-byte/wide-char characters it can
break some of the links to the Connect-related shortcuts in the Start Menu and cause an error to
appear at the end of the installer. The workaround for the moment is to use the default
installation path. The problem will be addressed in a later release.
Switching Languages
Changing the language using the Window>Preferences>Language Setting menu option
does not currently change all of the strings in the application to the selected language. This is a
known issue and will be fixed in a later release.
In the meantime we offer the following workaround for anyone who needs to change the
language:
