#5411: Invalid JSON returned for locations with control characters in the
display
name.
----------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: s.tannenbaum@… | Owner: geocoding@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: nominatim | Version:

----------------------------+-------------------------
The following query returns an invalid JSON string.
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?q=Kragujevac+34000&format=json
The answer contains the display string Нашеље Шумарице followed directly
by several copies of the '7f' ISO control character before the closing
quote. This causes parser errors for receiving applications. The JSON spec
requires all control characters in strings to be escaped, in this case as
\u007f.
The presence of the control character is probably just an error in the
source data, but Nominatim should still return correctly encoded JSON in
that case.
