Special Characters

Adrian DSep 11 2018 — edited Sep 11 2018

Hi All

Is there a list of reserved or special characters that cannot be entered as part of a URL call for ORDS?

We have some QA people testing the robustness of some API's built in ORDS. They are trying lots of different character combinations to see what works and what breaks. They have tried using the escaped version of the characters.

We have found that with our API for a GET the following characters result in a 400 Bad Request response when included as a URL path parameter.

CharacterEscaped Version
#%23
%  %25
;  %3B
? %3F

Thanks for any advice,

Adrian

Hi.

What  Solaris version you use ? ( 11 ; 11.3 11.4 ? )

Show result of command:   pkg info entire

What version STB you install and what is source ?

Standart path for explorer is :   /opt/SUNWexplo/bin/explorer

Check also this docs:

How to Install/Upgrade Explorer in Solaris 11.3 and 11.4 (Doc ID 2122392.1)

Oracle Services Tools Bundle (STB) - RDA/Explorer, SNEEP, ACT (Doc ID 1153444.1)

Regards,

Nik

As Nik suggests, knowing which version of Solaris 11 you are using and where you're installing explorer from is key. From 11.3 it's installed by default with most default group packages. /usr/sbin/explorer is a link to /usr/lib/explorer/bin/explorer so either should work
