Jira Password is not URL Encoded - Jira Authentication Fails when Jira Password
contains not allowed in URL characters
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCHANGES-167
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGES-167
Project: Maven 2.x Changes Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: jira-report
Affects Versions: 2.1
Environment: mvn on Mac OS X 10.5.7
Atlassian JIRA Enterprise Edition, Version: 3.13.2 on Ubuntu 8.04.2
Reporter: Vangelis Ghiossis
Priority: Minor
When a jira-report is configured to run against a private Jira installation
that requires login credentials, if a user's password contains non URL-friendly
characters, Jira authentication fails.
For example my Jira user's password is:
password#
With this password Jira authentication fails.
As a workaround I can use:
password%23
i.e. with the "#" URL-encoded and in this case, authentication works fine and
the jira-report is produced.
I suppose here that the password is included in the Jira Download of issues URL.
