[WAGON-461] URL string not properly encoded by webdav

• Type: Bug

• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Incomplete
• Affects Version/s: 2.10
• Component/s: wagon-webdav

Description

wagon-webdav is not calling EncodingUtil prior to instantiating MkColMethod which results in

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid uri 'https://snafu.sharefile-webdav.com/Shared Folders/Fit - Expert Services/IBM/': escaped absolute path not valid

when there are special characters in the URI string.

Changing line 153 of org.apache.maven.wagon.providers.webdav.WebDavWagon from

            method = new MkColMethod( url );

to

            method = new MkColMethod( EncodingUtil.encodeURLToString( url ) );

solves the issue although you may want to fix it elsewhere in the flow.
