[jira] [Created] (CONNECTORS-1603) Global config XML double-decoded
when stored in Zookeeper
Raman Gupta created CONNECTORS-1603:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Global config XML double-decoded when stored in Zookeeper
Key: CONNECTORS-1603
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1603
Project: ManifoldCF
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Raman Gupta
When using Zookeeper to store the global config, it is impossible to have entities in the input XML. For example if we have a db password with value "foo&bar", then we have to encode this in the global config XML like this:
<property name="org.apache.manifoldcf.dbsuperuserpassword" value="foo&bar"/>
When writing the global config to Zookeeper, it appears like this XML file is parsed, but then written to ZooKeeper as:
<property name="org.apache.manifoldcf.dbsuperuserpassword" value="foo&bar"/>
Now, when this global config is read from ZooKeeper, Manifold parses it as XML again, and of course fails with the error:
Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; lineNumber: 31; columnNumber: 81; The reference to entity "bar" must end with the ';' delimiter.
