[daisy] [JIRA] Commented: (DSY-418) Authentication failed error message does not displays unicode characters correctly

[Bruno Dumon (JIRA)]

Bruno Dumon commented on DSY-418:
---------------------------------

I've tried with both Tomcat 6.0.10 and Tomcat 5.5.16, and didn't have this problem.

Since the login data is part of the POST-body, the presence of the additional attributes on the <Connector> element has no influence on this (i.e. it would work correctly even if you forget to add them).

The demo site has Apache in front of Tomcat. If it's connected using mod_jk, I think the actual request decoding happens in Apache (though not sure if this is also true of the request body), so the problem might be caused by that. I don't know enough of Apache to help with that.

> If someone tries to log in with a username that contains special characters (like umlauts) and does not succeed, the error message is misleading and confusing for end user.
> E.g. for username hänsel:
> Authentication failed for login "h\u00E4nsel" (unknown login, wrong password or unconfirmed registration).
