why Spring 3.x path param is truncated

Question

The path param value is truncated randomly.

ex : myapplication/{pathparam}

Actual value "ab-cd-626-1.2.3.4 .6" is actually parsed as ab-cd-626-1.2.3.4. No idea why this is happening, please help

You can't have whitespace in a URL. You should be escaping all whitespace and non-standard URL characters: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp — woemler, Feb 25 '16 at 21:28

I am not shure where you use that pathparam, may be in a @RequestMapping of a controller method ?

I experienced problems,when the path param contains '.', so I avoid that at all. The problem stems from the way, the url is parsed by spring.

More discussion on that : pathvariable with dot is getting truncated
