SunPlex Installer recognizes a limited character set to increase security. Characters that are not a part of the set are silently filtered out when HTML forms are submitted to the SunPlex Installer server. The following characters are accepted by SunPlex Installer:
()+,-./0-9:=@A-Z^_a-z{|}~ |
This filter can cause problems in the following two areas:
Password entry for Sun JavaTM System services – If the password contains unusual characters, these characters are stripped out, resulting in one of the following problems:
The resulting password therefore fails because it has less than eight characters.
The application is configured with a different password than the user expects.
Localization – Alternative character sets, such as accented characters or Asian characters, do not work for input.
