Description

From Adrian on ML:

When I navigate to https://localhost:8443/accounting/control/paymentOverview?paymentId=8004 many exceptions are thrown and the screen fails to render. I tried changing WidgetWorker.java line 74 to localRequestName = UtilCodec.canonicalize(localRequestName, false, false); which fixed the exceptions, but the generated link is wrong. I don't know how to fix it.

Errors related to this class are also thrown at accounting/control/invoiceOverview. Setting a breakpoint at line 167 of UtilCodec.java shows that 2 HTMLEntityCodec.decode calls transforms the URL from
EditAcctgTrans?acctgTransId=10070&organizationPartyId=10010 to
EditAcctgTrans?acctgTransId=10070&organizationPartyId=10010 to
EditAcctgTrans?acctgTransId=10070∨ganizationPartyId=10010.

Not sure if the error is in class UtilCode or HTMLEntityCodec.
