Problem with semicolons in bitstreams' name

[Walter Nakamura]

Hi, guys!

We're having a problem with dspace and semicolons in filenames. When we upload a file without a semicolon in its name, the file opens as usual. However, when it has a semicolon, dspace gives an error saying that the identifier is invalid. If I edit the filename in dspace after its upload, the bitstream works again. Is it normal? Is there any way to workaround this problem?

Thank you!

Hi Walter,

I just tried uploading a PDF with a semicolon in its name to our demo server (currently running DSpace 6.3).

It works fine from the XMLUI: http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/handle/10673/5

However, it looks like the JSPUI has difficulty with the semicolon: http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/handle/10673/5  (It throws an invalid identifier error.)

So, this looks to be a bug in the JSPUI. I'm not aware of a fix at this time, but I logged the bug at: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-4011

Hi, Tim! In fact, we're using JSPUI.

Thank you very much for the quick reply. I'll be waiting for the updates regarding this issue.

I mean "indeed" instead of "in fact". Sorry! :)
