RE: Tomcat URL encoding

2017-06-15 Thread Cai, Charles [COMRES/RTC/RTC]
Sorry, I forgot mention, I already add the following to the catalina.properties 
file. 

org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.ALLOW_BACKSLASH=true 

It didn't seems worked for me neither.

You need to enable this through the ALLOW_BACKSLASH property:
https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/config/systemprops.html

Hi Guys,

Looking for help here after search on the web for couple hours:

I'm currently doing some testing on Tomcat 8.5.9   I'm trying to encode all the 
URL that is requesting to my server.
One thing I have noticed it wasn't working is the `\` (back slash) can't be 
allowed in the URL.

I'm getting the error saying:
INFO [https-jsse-nio-8443-exec-10] 
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.service Error parsing HTTP request 
header
  Note: further occurrences of HTTP header parsing errors will be logged at 
DEBUG level.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid character found in the request 
target. The valid characters are defined in RFC 7230 and RFC 3986

The test requesting URL is like this:
https://localhost:8443/passthrough.jsp?ntUserName=comany\testuser

Currenty, I tried those two approachs:
1st, set the server.xml with URIEncoding:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/http.html

2nd, add the following filter:
https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/CharacterEncoding#Q1

It should be like this after the encoding (replace `\` with `%5C` ) :
https://localhost:8443/passthrough.jsp?ntUserName=comany%5Ctestuser

but none of those options worked for me.


It needs to be encoded on the client.
