----------------------------------
Summary: Plugin form field replacing "+" with " "
Key: JENKINS-13531
URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13531
Project: Jenkins
Issue Type: Bug
Components: core
Affects Versions: current
Environment: RedHat Linux and Mac OS X Lion
Reporter: glimberg
I've been experimenting with the Amazon S3 Publisher plugin in Jenkins 1.460 in
preparation for starting to use S3 for artifact storage & program distribution
at work. I kept getting errors with the S3 plugin, however, stating "Can't
connect to S3 service: The request signature we calculated does not match the
signature you provided. Check your key and signing method."
The Access & Secret Keys were correct and being stored correctly in the
hudson.plugins.s3.S3BucketPublisher.xml configuration file. I added some
logging to the plugin to discover that in
S3BucketPublisher.DescriptorImpl.doLoginCheck(), the "secretKey" element of the
StaplerRequest parameter was being returned incorrectly. There's a "+"
character in the secret key. The plus was being turn into a space (" "), thus
the plugin is unable to connect to S3.
The issue first appears with Jenkins & the S3 Publisher plugin in Jenkins 1.455
and continues through 1.460. Versions 1.454 and prior behave as expected. The
"+" in the secret key is retained and connection to S3 is possible. Nothing has
changed in the S3 plugin in that time period, so the issue must be somewhere
inside Jenkins itself. Unfortunately, I'm rather unfamiliar with the Jenkins
architecture and plugin architecture an am unable to trace the issue further
down the chain than that.
To recreate the issue:
1) get the S3 plugin (https://github.com/jenkinsci/s3-plugin)
2) set the jenkins version on line 6 of pom.xml to 1.455 or greater.
3) in "Configure System", add an S3 profile. Valid or not does not matter.
Make sure there's a "+" in the secret key or the access key field.
4) Set a breakpoint, or print out the value of req.getParameter("secretKey") in
S3BucketPublisher.DescriptorImpl.doLoginCheck(). See that the "+" has been
turned into a " ".
The strange thing is that if you look in the actual form fields secretKey or
accessKey, the + will be in there correctly. Somehow it's not getting to the
actual plugin code as a +, though.
Workarounds:
None known at this time.
I attempted to replace the + with its URLEncoded form "%2B" in the
configuration file, but "%2B" comes through instead of being decoded into a +.
The only hack I have to get it working for us at the office for the time being
is to replace all instances of " " in the secretKey with "+". Not a good
solution.
