Symptoms

During testing of OAG 11.1.2.2.0, an issue occurs when a higher level ASCii character instead of a normal blank space is added to a REST URL call.  The value of the space in the particular test used was Char 160 (hex: A0) which is a non-break space. This is something that can be added using a normal word processor or a spreadsheet tool (Insert – Symbol).

It was noticed that whenever this special character is added to a REST URL, and a Trace Filter is included in the policy being used, the Oracle API Gateway instance throws an exception in the trace file and crashes.
