Matt Parker edited comment on CXF-4207 at 3/27/12 11:27 PM: ------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks, using the properties you list, I have confirmed that this is a tomcat config issue and not a CXF issue. Also, sorry for the misleading description--I am actually seeing 400, not 404. Had I mentioned that, it would have been more obvious what was happening. I'll update the description accordingly. Thank you very much. was (Author: mparker): ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH=true allows %2F as you say, thanks much. I still can't get %5C to work (I get 400 Invalid URI), but I suspect that to also be part of the container behavior and not part of CXF. Also, sorry for the misleading description--I am actually seeing 400, not 404. Had I mentioned that, it would have been more obvious what was happening. I'll update the description accordingly. > CXF interprets URL-encoded slashes in PathParam prior to method dispatch > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CXF-4207 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4207 > Project: CXF > Issue Type: Bug > Components: JAX-RS > Affects Versions: 2.4.2, 2.5.3 > Reporter: Matt Parker > > For a method which handles, for example, "@Path(/rest/{value})": if either a > forward or backward slash is encoded and provided as part of "{value}", CXF > will interpret the encoded slash as a URI separator, rather than as a part of > "{value}". > For example, "GET /rest/my%5Cvalue" will be interpreted as "GET > /rest/my\value" prior to dispatching, and will then fail with a 400 Invalid > URI, rather than passing "my\value" to the method handling the > "/rest/{value}" URI. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
