Sorry, I wasn't following this thread.  Mostly, I'm going to plead ignorance - I've never touched JBoss jmx-remoting.  However, Jason seems to be on the right track.  The line numbers in Tim's stack trace don't match the JBoss implementation of javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL.

OK, I just verified and this is explicitly disallowed in the JDK version of JMXSerivceURL (IMO a bug). It is however allowed in URL.

The JBoss implementation of JMXServiceURL does allow it, so the problem is that it is not in endorsed libs.

No escaping should be needed. The JDK allows underscores in hostnames. In reality there is nothing wrong with them, they just aren't allowed in DNS.

Am I missing the point, or this is JDK code being executed (javax.management...). How escaping the hostname could help?

AFAICT the string is just a JMX service name, it doesn't *have to* contain the actual hostname AFAICT:

String serviceURL = "service:jmx:rmi://" + bindAddress + "/jndi/rmi://" + bindAddress + ":" + registryPort + jndiPath;

So should be to escape it before passing it to the JDK code.

Maybe someone from the remoting team should comment, since this is remoting code...


java.net.MalformedURLException: Bad URL path: _laptop/jndi/rmi://tims_laptop:1090/jmxconnector
        at javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL.validate(JMXServiceURL.java:348)
        at javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL.<init>(JMXServiceURL.java:208)
        at org.jboss.mx.remoting.service.JMXConnectorServerService.start(JMXConnectorServerService.java:106)

This looks like a non-issue to me. Better change your hostname :)

I'm not familiar with that code, but I'm assuming that whoever is generating the URLs should be able to escape any occurences of '_' pretty easily....

So, is this a JDK problem, or not?
