-----------------------------------

             Summary: Fix DNSName error in 
org.apache.knox.gateway.util.X509CertificateUtil
                 Key: KNOX-1922
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-1922
             Project: Apache Knox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: KnoxCLI, Server
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Sandor Molnar
            Assignee: Sandor Molnar


As part of KNOX-1912, there has been some modification that added DNSName 
values for localhost even if the hostname evaluated to 127.0.0.1. However, due 
to [RFC-1034,|https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1034.txt] this is not allowed. On the 
other hand, newer RFCs (e.g. RFC 2181, RFC 1123) are relaxing these 
restrictions. Oracle claimed they fixed it in JDK 8 u212 
([https://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8213952]) but it does 
not seem to be the case.
 As a result, neither the build finishes successfully nor the gateway starts as 
expected due to the same DNSName issue ({{IOException: DNSName components must 
begin with a letter}}).

Recommended solution: only add the evaluated localhost address if it starts 
with a letter.
