Serv-U version 15.0.0 Hotfix 1 now Available

RhinoSoft Serv-U version 15.0.0 Hotfix 1


Download this hotfix: http://downloads.solarwinds.com/solarwinds/Release/HotFix/SU-v15.0.0-HotFix1.zip.

This hotfix corrects the following issues:

  • Corrects an issue where HTTPS connections may fail to close after all data has been transferred. Affected installs of Serv-U would demonstrate degraded Management Console performance or errors. This most commonly occurred on Linux deployments with a single core processor.
  • Corrects an SFTP (via SSH2) bug, introduced in Serv-U 10.2.0.0, where each connected session caused Serv-U to consume an excessive amount of memory until the session was disconnected.
  • Corrects a Web Client bug where users configured with FTP Voyager JV as their default web client did not see the FTP Voyager JV landing page when accessing Serv-U from a new browser window when the browser still had an active session cached.

This hotfix requires RhinoSoft Serv-U version 15.0.0.
