Spring-cloud-netflix: Any multipart request with a boundary in the content type raises an exception

[eloipoch]

In 1.3.0.M1 seems that a bug has been introduced.

Any multipart request that in his Content-Type adds the boundary parameter (in theory a required parameter, see RFC) raises an exception with the message "MIME type may not contain reserved characters".

I think it has been introduced in the commit which tries to handle well a content-type with a charset due to the upgrade of the httpclient library.

I will try to open a PR with a fix in order to have it for this release.

Hi, I've got same issues with 1.2.5.RELEASE

[spencergibb]

Reopening to apply to Camden branch 1.2.x

[hartmut-pq]

Thanks a lot!
Note: broke upgrade to spring boot 1.5.1.RELEASE & org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-dependencies:Camden.SR5

[spencergibb]

Here's a workaround with Camden.SR5 and Spring Boot 1.5 https://gist.github.com/spencergibb/80a134b4738c78ca64e4d0c77214fcb6

Cherry picked to 1.2.x ee953bef07034f88e352a7ebf938cbd345e2535e

From the above message it seems that the fix is done for this. However ,we tried after upgrading the boot dependencies to 1.5.1.RELEASE & spring-cloud-dependencies to Camden.SR5, it still didn't work for us.

With what versions the fix for "-MIME type may not contain reserved characters" is supposed to work

[ryanjbaxter]

It looks like this was cherry picked after the release occurred, can your try Camden.BUILD-SNAPSHOT?

[prantan7]

Thanks Ryan !! I will check with the SNAPSHOT version and let you know.

Is the fix available in any DALSTON version as well?

Is there any other to resolve this besides updating the dependency. I saw some messages regarding using the RibbonRoutingFilter instead of the SimpleHostRoutingFilter.

[spencergibb]

Yes, it will be in Dalston RC1. The gist above is a workaround.

[hartmut-pq]

So there is no other Camden Release lined up including the fix?
I generally don't feel comfortable to work on a BUILD-SNAPSHOT...

[ryanjbaxter]

There will be another Camden release coming soon.

[hartmut-pq]

Hi @ryanjbaxter - how soon is _soon_ going to be? :-)

21 days ago

[ryanjbaxter]

@hartmut-pq most likely this week, sorry for the delay

[asarkar]

@ryanjbaxter We hit this issue today, and as a result, a multipart upload feature is busted. Do you have a definitive timeline for this to be released? I'd like to avoid upgrading to SNAPSHOT, if I can, only to upgrade to a release couple days later.

[ryanjbaxter]

Camden.SR6 will hopefully be released today, if not Monday I would think at the latest. The Netflix 1.2.6.RELEASE which will be included in Camden.SR6 is already in Maven Central if you would like to try it out.

[asarkar]

@ryanjbaxter Thanks for the info. Please provide an update here when the release is available and I'll go grab it.

[ryanjbaxter]

The release is now available.

[asarkar]

Confirmed working. Thanks @ryanjbaxter
