Hello,

I've been using Wapt for a few years now, using the Community version (currently 1.8.2.7334, on a Debian server), and I deploy packages from the console. Therefore, I rarely have the opportunity to use the self-service feature.
While trying to demonstrate it to a colleague, I encountered a problem, perhaps a bug:
my colleague uses a password ending with the two characters "£" and has an administrator account. I created a group called waptselfservice for him and added him to it. When I try to authenticate with his password, I get the message "Incorrect username or password". After changing the last character of his password (from "£" to "$"), I was able to authenticate and use WaptSelfService.
I must admit I haven't had time to investigate further yet, but I'd be curious to know the source of the problem.

Best regards,

Hello Corriou,
there was an encoding issue with the self-service login, but I believe it was fixed some time ago. Could you please try upgrading to the latest version, 1.8.2?
Regards,
Denis

Hi Corriou,

there are more up-to-date versions in the community nightly build, but since not many people in the community are testing them, they've never been released (unlike the enterprise 1.8.2 versions)...

You can test a recent nightly community build to see if the bug is still present.

In any case, with the upcoming release of Discovery 2.0, Tranquil IT will let the community take charge of the development of the 1.8.2 community version, so if you want to look into it, fork the project on GitHub and start hacking the code, it could be a good opportunity. :-)

Best regards,

Denis
