                 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: 2.7.0 Final, 2.6.7 Final
            Reporter: Prabhat Jha
            Assignee: Wesley Hales
             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
