IllegarlArgumentException when there is a dot "." in name of portlet instance created using admin ui ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPORTAL-2259 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-2259 Project: JBoss Portal Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Portal Core Affects Versions: 2.6.7 Final, 2.7.0 Final Reporter: Prabhat Jha Assignee: Chris Laprun Fix For: 2.7.1 Final, 2.6.8 Final Thanks Mike Harvey and Jirka for finding this bug. If you create new protlet instance and put the dot in the name (probably also other special char), then the GUI creates the record in database but the portlet name i s invalid and the GUI (config portlet) does not work anymore. To fix this you have to go to db and rename the instance manually there. There should be a validator to chack that only valid name was entered. In 2.7, the exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: prabhat.jha at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.validateId(UIComponentBase.java:555) at javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase.setId(UIComponentBase.java:351) at com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler.apply(ComponentHandler.java:151) at com.sun.facelets.tag.CompositeFaceletHandler.apply(CompositeFaceletHandler.java:47) at com.sun.facelets.tag.jstl.core.ForEachHandler.apply(ForEachHandler.java:175) at com.sun.facelets.tag.CompositeFaceletHandler.apply(CompositeFaceletHandler.java:47) at com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler.applyNextHandler(ComponentHandler.java:314) at com.sun.facelets.tag.jsf.ComponentHandler.apply(ComponentHandler.java:169) In 2.6, the exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Subsequent characters of component identifier must be a letter, a digit, an underscore ('_'), or a dash ('-')!
