We’ve just released ServiceControl 5.2.1.

Fixed bugs

  • #4200 Retried messages and ServiceControl integration messages cannot be handled by older MSMQ endpoints

How to know if you are affected

You are affected if you are using a combination of:

  • ServiceControl 5.2.0 (earlier versions are not affected)
