Problem with "Confluence CLI Connector" and Attachments (docx)

Daniel Vehof

Hi,

we are currently evaluating if we can change some URLs in confluence pages with the Confluence CLI Connector. At the moment we have got Problems with attached docx files. The cli connector seems to try to change the URLs even in the docx files. But something goes wrong there.

From the logfile:

caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The char '0x13' in 'java.io.IOException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The char '0x13' in '... &lt;PART OF THE DOCX HERE&gt; ... ' is not a valid XML character.' is not a valid XML character.
at org.apache.axis.components.encoding.AbstractXMLEncoder.encode(AbstractXMLEncoder.java:110)

Is there anything we are doing wrong? Can we exclude attachments (or docx)? We use the atlassian-cli 6.1.0 (on linux) and the latest plugin version.

this is how we try to do it:

./confluence.sh --server https://url.to/confluence --user USERNAME --password "PASSWORD" --action runFromContentList --search "\"https://OLD.URL/confluence\"" --space @all --common "--action modifyPage --id @pageId@ --findReplace \"https://OLD.URL/confluence###https://NEW.URL/confluence\" --special \" ###\" "

Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the hint smile

It would be more helpful if you provide the results from a CLI action that shows an error.

In any case, modifyPage only changes pages. A suggestion also would be to use the cql parameter instead of search, something like:

--cql "text ~ 'https://OLD.URL/confluence' and type = page"

Thanks for your answer!

It works with --cql instead of --search. So the problem seems to be, that --search also searches in attachments (in my case docx) and this fails somehow.

CLI only says:

Remote error: (500)Internal Server Error

The entries in the confluence logfile are as mentioned above in my first post.

But as --cql works, and if you say it is equal to --search in this case, this will be enough for me.

Daniel Vehof

Sorry, it's me again.

Now tried the same command (with --cql) that worked for the confluence URL to replace an old JIRA URL in the same confluence instance.

Replacing the JIRA URL fails:

cli output says:

Remote error: java.lang.NullPointerException: null

Maybe you have another hint for me.
Thanks!
