Edit Links On Page Disappear After Upgrading to APEX 4.2

I recently upgraded from APEX 4.1 to 4.2.  All went well except I could no longer get edit links to show up on pages launched from the APEX Administration Application.

After a few days of back and forth with support I was provided this little snippet that fixed the problem. Not sure how or why but I'm looking into it and will update this page with any new info.

This is a result of bug#16769040 - DEVELOPER TOOLBAR IS MISSING AFTER UPGRADING TO 4.2.2

I was told to ONLY run this if you are on 4.2.2.00.11.  Use at your own risk!

Run the following code as SYS or APEX_040200


begin
apex_040200.wwv_flow_security.set_internal_cookie_name;
commit;
end;
