Using replacedBy config with usernames with periods

Reply Threaded

Hello all,

I am trying to use the replacedBy option of the config file to replace a user that has an email as the username but it does not appear to be doing anything when it runs the report. Has anyone else replaced a username with a . in it successfully through the config file?

Thanks!

Can you paste all lines in your config file related to this user?

Thanks,

I really only had the replacedBy like:

# User Details

[hidden email]=username

For now it's the only reason I used the config file.

Have you tested with other users (that don't have periods or @ in their names) to rule out any possibilities that the config file is not loaded properly?

Thanks,

K, I figured out what it was.

I could change the background color of the charts with the config file, so I knew it was working. But the actual user details weren't taking. Turns out that you have to use all lowercase usernames.

[hidden email]=Username

will not work, even if your log file uses Username. instead you have to use lowercase:

[hidden email]=Username

Other than that it worked fine, even with the @ and . in the username.

Thanks for the help!

Now for another one... how do you do the replacedBy when there is a space in the username?

EX: User Name

I tried:

user.user name.replacedBy=username
user.user Name.replacedBy=username

How do work with users with spaces?

Looking at the code after your comment yesterday, it must use all lowercase, that is for sure.

Try : user.user\ name.replacedBy=username

If that doesn't work, you will need to write a pre-processor on the log file to replace the username because I suppose the java properties we are using should never use spaces.

Brilliant! I guess I need to think more like a command line and less like a browser... I had tried %20, but the \ makes a lot more sense.

It worked great to use the \ to escape the space. You wouldn't normally do that to a properties file, but it works for this case.

Thanks!
