Known issues and considerations regarding ECLs

Below are some known issues and caveats you should consider when using Execution Control Lists. These issues are current as of R5.0.5. For more generalized information about configuration, see the Release Notes document "Recommendations for deploying tighter ECLs."

Known issue: SPR# JTHN4DFNUW

An Execution Security Alert is presented when executing a script with NotesEmbeddedObject.New.

There is an issue when using "Create Object From Template" to embed another application object within Notes. If you use the "Create Object From Template" option and choose, for instance, Microsoft Word with update macro, you will eventually receive an Execution Security Alert:


Known issue: SPR# HUR4DDPJL

Execution Control Lists do not support groups.

When adding ECL entries to your personal security options by selecting File, User Preferences, Security Options and choosing Add, the dialog box for Add User implies you can add a Person, Server or Group. This is not the case. If you choose to Add group(s), they are not applied and have never been supported. The dialog box in this context is in error, and at this time there are no plans for supporting groups.

Known issue: SPR# VMAA4CWQ4E

Auto-launching a file attachment generates the Execution Security Alert:


There is a known Execution Security Alert when a file is attached to either the "Help About" document or a form, and then the launch option for the database is set to "Launch first attachment in About Document" or "Auto-launch first attachment on form" (respectively).

Known issue: SPR# LDEY4CZQTL

An Execution Security Alert occurs when editing a form marked as "Available to Public Access Users":


There is a known Execution Security Alert when a form marked as "Available to Public Access Users" is edited and saved. If the same form is edited and saved a second time, the correct signature is associated with the form and its elements, and the Execution Security Alert "Signed by: -No Signature-" is then suppressed.
