Monday, August 26, 2019
Introduction
In NCache 5.0 SP1, there are some important bug fixes and a few new enhancements made.
Enhancements and New Additions
Following are some enhancements made in this release:
- NET Core SignalR backplane
NCache SignalR backplane for ASP.NET Core applications is provided.
- Support for Internet Explorer 11
Web management can now be done from Internet Explorer 11 (latest release) but its recommended to use Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox or Opera.
- Dynamically generated installation keys
Installation keys for all editions of NCache are now dynamically generated at the time of download. This means that every customer gets a unique installation key.
- Only .NET based cache servers in Professional and Open Source
Cache servers in Professional and Open Source editions are only .NET based. Clients are available for both .NET and .NET Core. Cache servers can't be installed on Linux for these two editions.
- Limited features in Open Source and Professional editions
Open source and Professional editions have gone back to Alachisoft's original strategy where we had a limited number of features in both Open Source and Professional editions.

List of Bugs Fixed:

- 744181 FIX: Manually changed 'Keep-Alive' settings are lost on configuration change through management tools.

- 744186 FIX: Client-side counters are not populated in Web Manager in some cases.
- 744187 FIX: Exception 'No server is available to process the request' when the client gets disconnected simultaneously from all cache servers.
