UIM config file (cfg) formatting change - losing indentation after deploying package

Products

Issue/Introduction

After deploying some packages/probes/configuration packages to a robot running controller 9.40 we are finding that the formatting is being changed and the indentation is lost.

For example, the sql_response.cfg <setup> section normallly looks like:

But after deploying a configuration package to add profiles to the probe it looks like this:

 

 

This does not affect the probe operation but it makes the config files more difficult to read.  How can it be resolved?

Environment

robot_update 9.40

any OS

Cause

defect

Resolution

This issue is resolved in robot_update 23.4.0 which ships with UIM 23.4; existing config files will not be repaired and this must be done manually if desired, but after deploying robot_update 23.4.0 the issue will no longer occur going forward.

Additionally, if you are not yet running UIM 23.4, robot_update 23.4.0 is also available from the UIM Web Archive and can be deployed individually.  It is fully compatible with UIM 20.4x.
