[Jan Tymel (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-1647?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13264510#comment-13264510 ] 

Jan Tymel commented on WFCORE-1647:
-----------------------------------

Specification says {{APP-NAME        = NILVALUE / 1*48PRINTUSASCII}}, i.e. {{-}} or {{string with (at maximum) 48 chars}}. These chars can be only printable excluding space character (and DEL) {{PRINTUSASCII    = %d33-126}}, space character has ASCII code {{32}} (DEL {{127}}).

>          Components: Domain Management
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0.Alpha3
>            Reporter: Jan Tymel

>             Fix For: 3.0.0.Alpha4, 2.2.0.CR8

> According to syslog specification[1] {{app-name}} cannot contain space character (" "). However, the default value in WildFly Core 3.0.0.Alpha3 is {{WildFly Core}}. This results in the syslog server is not able to capture Process ID from which the message was sent.
> E.g. following piece of information is captured {{WildFly[Core] (...)}} instead of {{WildFlyCore[795]}}
> Suggestions for improvement:
> Change default value {{WildFly Core}} to one without space character.
> Also please consider addition of check whether {{app-name}} contains space character.
