Breaking change reminder: As of 5.2.0-rc.1, app pods no longer run as root. As a result, if your apps contain a predeploy script that installs system-level dependencies, you’ll need to update the predeploy script to use
sudoin order for your apps to continue working with Dash Enterprise. For example, the following script that installs the ODBC driver
txt cp /app/odbc.ini /etc/odbc.ini cp /app/odbcinst.ini /etc/odbcinst.ini
would need to be updated to
txt sudo cp /app/odbc.ini /etc/odbc.ini sudo cp /app/odbcinst.ini /etc/odbcinst.ini
Breaking change reminder: As of 5.2.0-rc.1, apps and workspaces use Ubuntu 22, which may not be supported by older drivers. If your apps depend on drivers, you may need change their versions in order for your apps to continue working with Dash Enterprise.
Notably, if your apps use
msodbcsql, you’ll need to upgrade it to v17.10.5.1. (“MSSQL App” from the App Catalog is an example of an app that depends onmsodbcsql. This app has been updated to usemsodbcsqlv17.10.5.1, but if any of your
deployed apps were built using “MSSQL App” from earlier Dash Enterprise versions, they will require an update).

Breaking change: As of this release, app pods no longer run as root. As a result, if your apps contain a predeploy script that installs system-level dependencies, you’ll need to update the predeploy script to use

With this change, the changelogs for enterprise libraries are moved into their respective documentation sections instead of being included in this changelog, and App Catalog changes are no longer included.
Improved the look and feel of the Workspaces IDE for better consistency with the rest of Dash Enterprise.
Improved navigation between the Workspaces IDE and the rest of Dash Enterprise by adding links to the App Manager, the App Catalog, the Portal, and Documentation in the left sidebar of the IDE. Any existing workspaces will need to be rebuilt to get this change as well as the above change.
