You are running 5.2. Beta, correct?

Yes. But wondering why?

Of course. But we can't work from just a repro without any detail about what release.

It's most probably a bug in the Beta. That's why it is a Beta.

We'll make sure production doesn't have the bug.

thanks

Hi Abhinav--
We can't repro this in our test environments so we're assuming we don't have the right specifics.

So that we can track this and try to resolve it, can you get your info to IBI-CSS and open a case with them, so we can track all the details of it? You'd need to provide the repro steps you used to set up the alert, etc, including what report you were having the alert run on fire, the conditions, the test DB you were using, etc.

thanks!

Thank you. We got your repro - excellently and expertly prepared - and have now found and fixed the problem.

Thanks to you there's one bug that won't be happening in 5.2.1.

Much appreciated.
