CA Access Gateway(SPS): Proxy validates "&", but after submits disapear.

  • 1.  CA Access Gateway(SPS): Proxy validates "&", but after submits disapear.

    I needed to create a proxy rule that used the "&" character, I tested it with the "Proxy Rule Test", but I noticed that after submitting the character it disappeared and my rule failed.

     

    I tried the variations:

    • %26
    •  
    • &
    • "&"
    • '&'
    • \&

     

    In all I found the same behavior.

    Hi Amilton,

     

    I am unaware of an issue with the "&" character, but based on your description, this sounds like a possible issue with utilizing this character via the ProxyUI.

     

    When you state "I tested it with the "Proxy Rule Test", does that imply that your Rule was successful? If so, have you tried modifying the ProxyRules.xml file manually to see if that allow the change to be saved, and the Rule to be processed?
