Hello

We, the Qpid project, are having a problem with our Jenkins build
Qpid-Java-Test-Solaris on the Solaris1 Jenkins slave.   Some of our
junit tests are failing on this slave with an exception:

java.net.MalformedURLException: Bad URL path:
_solaris:19099/jndi/rmi://hudson_solaris:18999/jmxrmi

Looking at the logs from the testcase it appears that the Java method
call InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName() used by the Qpid code is
returning hostname "hudson_solaris".   The code goes on to build a URL
using this value which then is subsequently rejected with a
MalformedURLException by javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL
(another part of the Java JDK).   According to RFC 952
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname#Restrictions_on_valid_host_names)
hostnames that contain underscores (_) are invalid, so it appears that
Java is justified in throwing the Exception.

Now I'm slightly puzzled because
https://builds.apache.org/computer/solaris1/ reports the FQDN as
hudson-solaris.zones.apache.org (with minus sign rather than
underscore), and hudson-solaris.zones.apache.org resolves in DNS
whereas hudson_solaris.zones.apache.org does not.

My questions are:  What is the hostname of Jenkins slave solaris1?
Does the host perhaps have multiple hostnames one of which is the
illegal hudson_solaris?

The failing build project is "Qpid-Java-Test-Solaris" which is tied to
solaris.  This project is using configured in Jenkins to use JDK 1.6.
I have not tested the build on solaris2 as it is presently offline. I
have successfully tested the code on another Solaris box.  We don't
have this problem on the ubuntu Jenkins slaves,

Project:
https://builds.apache.org/view/M-R/view/Qpid/job/Qpid-Java-Test-Solaris/

Example failure:
https://builds.apache.org/view/M-R/view/Qpid/job/Qpid-Java-Test-Solaris/lastCompletedBuild/testReport/org.apache.qpid.management.jmx/ManagementActorLoggingTest/testCreateExchangeDirectTransientViaManagementConsole/

Thanks in advance for your time

Kind regards Keith Wall.
