| Summary | 0011340: instance names are case-sensitive! | ||||
| Description | But (at least) in the taler://pay-template/ case, I see the WebExtension wallet silently convert the instance name to lower-case. As a result, the merchant backend then doesn't find the instance and the payment does not work. Please fix wallet-core (and possibly UIs!) to ensure instance names are treated as case-sensitive! | ||||

ASAP, please, this will affect *several* existing customer accounts! |
|
|
Should we allow case-sensitivity, or should we internally ALWAYS convert to lower case? Then also the customer problem should be solved... See: https://youtu.be/mrGfahzt-4Q?t=1575 Time: 26:19 can an email address be case sensitive? the answer is yes if you're evil |
|
|
The backend is case-sensitive, so converting to lower-case is what you do right now and that is breaking it! URL paths are case-sensitive, so no lower-casing! |
|
|
> URL paths are case-sensitive, so no lower-casing! Oh, come on. Who tf cares about lower/upper case when they enter a URL in the browser? Nobody does, and our backend shouldn't either. Everybody expects that they get to the correct (one-and-only) place when they enter lower case. |

Marc: please open https://bugs.gnunet.org/View.php?id=11340 |

I'm having trouble to find where the lower cased happened. Do you have the QR code of taler:// uri of the template? I tried with the latest backoffice / webex creating a template with different cases on the ID but without luck. Also added some unit test which all passes. |
