            Bug ID: 54869
           Summary: Non-breaking space characters cause httpd to choke
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.14
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Runtime Config
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified

We have found that config files containing legitimate, non-breaking space
characters (Unicode U+00A0) will cause Apache to choke - resetting all incoming
connections. While these are not typically used in config files - they are
valid whitespace characters, and not all editors display them as a special
character. (TextMate2 and Eclipse do while VIM and EMACS do not). Some editors
also insert them automatically which is how they made their way into our config
files to begin with.

The expected behavior would be to have Apache treat these characters like any
other whitespace character and operate normally without resetting connections.

Thanks!
Michael
