Original Redmine bug id: 6094
Original URL: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/6094
Searchable id: yorba-bug-6094
Original author: Ryan Kohler
Original description:

Shotwell version 0.13.0

Ubuntu 12.10

Description:

When trying to publish a picture to my piwigo website, I get an invalid
username or password if my password has a & in it.

Error:

Invalid User Name or Password:

Username and/os password is invalid. Please try again

To reproduce the error:

1.) Create an account your Piwigo install that has a symbol & in the password,
either in the beginning or the middle.

2.) Select a picture.

3.) Click publish button at the bottom.

4.) Publish photos to: Piwigo.

5.) Enter the URL of your piwigo install, username, and password.

6.) Checkbox "Remember Password."

7.) Click the "Login" button and you'll get the error message above.

Workaround:

Change the password to not have the symbol & in it. Other symbols that I tried
that work are # @ ! % $

Thanks,

Ryan

Piwigo version is 2.4.5

Updated by Jim Nelson 12 months ago

  * **Priority** changed from _Low_ to _High_
  * **Target version** set to _0.14.0_

Although a minor problem, this suggests to me that we're not encoding the
password before sending, which could lead to problems with a lot of
characters.
