Known Issues

1. Performing a search with less than three characters results in PHP-Error

To fix this bug, it is necessary to copy the patch file into the directory: ./Services/Search/classes

2. Repository hangs due to Precondition Loops

It is possible to make a repository page inaccessible, when the preconditions for one item build a loop. The simplest example is a course that defines itself to be passed as a precondition. Another example is:
- Course A requires Course B to be passed.
- Course B requires Course C to be passed.
- Course C requires Course A to be passed.

Use the following patch file to make the repository accessible again. First make a backup copy of file "classes/class.ilObjectListGUI.php", then copy the patch file into directory "classes". Please use this patch for ILIAS 3.5.5 only.

3. Mini Calendar does not show the 31st of january

To fix this, make a backup copy of file modules/dateplaner/classes/class.ilMiniCal.php and copy the attached file into the directory modules/dateplaner/classes. Please use this fix for ILIAS 3.5.5 only.
