Release 5.2.170 October 12, 2026 barney

This version fixes a significant bug with changed locking mechanics. The bug is likely to manifest with certain orderbook manipulations involving 90+ lines or more : for example cancelling/deleting a large order. Behaviour is c9 will lock up with a wall of text error (null point exception). Bug was introduced back in May with some fixes to new lock system back then. (root cause: second connection to database is sometimes needed for lock management for some workflows, mostly ordering. That second was not being closed down correctly, resulting in connections to database to max out).

Other fixes:

  • KTM epc importer broke yet again. Fixed again
  • Print unit labels via unit – >Browser. Would not print barcode component. Now fixed
