Search bar in the top right is now case sensitive?

Post by GldRush98 »

Running 5.7.2 it seems that the search bar is now treating everything as case sensitive.
So if a host is named "Exchange Server"
And you search "exchange", 0 matches are found. You have to search "Exchange" to get a match.
If this change was intentional, I would ask that it be reverted so that searching is not case sensitive.

Hi,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention The backend database utility was re-written and the default encoding changed to utf8 so this has changed the behavior of the search function, but we are looking into to changing it back.

Let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Hi,

Just an update, got a bug report filed on this and we should have it fixed in the next maintenance release.
