Issue

  • Currently, if file entry validation is enabled and web contents are created with unencoded URLs containing special characters (such as ' &apos; ] } ) > < \n | ? " &quot;  ), publishing automatically fails due to the inability to validate the URLs.

Environment

  • DXP 7.3

Resolution

  • Turning Off File Entry Validation allows web contents containing Unencoded URLs to be published.
  • This can be accomplished by navigating to Control Panel > Configuration > System Settings > Platform > Infrastructure > Import/Export and unchecking the Validate File Entries box.
