Rendering /var/www/redmine-1.3.1/public/500.html (500 Internal Server Error)

I found a month-old report in the forum (http://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/29010) without any response.

I'm using Redmine 1.3.1.stable (MySQL)

I can't reproduce.
I need more information.

  • your Ruby version
  • your account's language setting. ( general_pdf_encoding is UTF-8?)
  • a reproducible wiki format text.

Updated by Tommaso Visconti over 12 years ago

This bug doesn't affect all the pages.

  • ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249) [i486-linux]
  • The language is italian and:
    $ grep -r general_pdf_encoding config/locales/it.yml 
      general_pdf_encoding: UTF-8
    

Attached you find the affected wiki page code

I found what's wrong, it's this the '<' char in the '<==>' string (in the first table):

|_.Switch|_.Porta|_.<==>|_.Switch|_.Porta|
|<.[[Cisco G200-26]]|<.25|=.<==>|<.[[HP Procurve 1400-24G]]|<.24|
|<.[[Cisco G200-26]]|<.26|=.<==>|<.Kraun gigabit|<.5|
|<.Kraun gigabit|<.1|=.<==>|<.3Com|<.16|

Without this char it can print pdf correctly

I can reproduced, thanks.
If "<" was included on wiki format, this problem occurred.
This problem already fixed on trunk by r8731 .

I committed r9278 to 1.3-stable.
If Redmine 1.3.3 is released, we need to change target to 1.3.3.
