http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43377 Summary: RequestDumperValve garbles POST data Product: Tomcat 5 Version: Unknown Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Enabling the RequestDumperValve can lead to garbled POST data, but only under the following circumstances: 1. The POST data is submitted with the content type/method application/x-www-form-urlencoded. The issue does NOT occur if the POST request uses multipart/form-data. 2. The POST data must contain some non-ASCII characters (e.g. German umlauts äöüÄÖÜ) which are transferred using UTF-8 multi-byte sequences. I have not debugged this problem on the source code level, but what seems to happen is the following: - the encoded POST data looks e.g. like this: comment=noch+ein+Test+%C3%A4%C3%B6%C3%BC%C3%84%C3%96%C3%9C - the form data is de-escaped, i.e. the %xx sequences are converted to binary - the next step should be to UTF-8 decode the data, but this step seems to be skipped. - the garbled, i.e. not UTF-8 decoded data ends up in the request parameters, looking like this "noch ein Test äöüÄÖÜ" instead of this "noch ein Test äöüÄÖÜ" -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
