Eos Cortex Project History stores the connection string to the MongoDB data source in an XML file. The following five (5) special characters need to be replaced with their HTML entity, when used.


  1. & & (ampersand, U+0026)
  2. &lt; < (left angle bracket, less-than sign, U+003C)
  3. &gt; > (right angle bracket, greater-than sign, U+003E)
  4. &quot; " (quotation mark, U+0022)
  5. &apos; ' (apostrophe, U+0027)


You also need to wrap the password with single quotes.


Finally, if your password includes a single quote, it must be escaped by preceding with another single quote.


Example:

Pa55w0rd~!@#$%^&*()_+`-={}[]\|;:",.<>/?'

'Pa55w0rd~!@#$%^&amp;*()_+`-={}[]\|;:&quot;,.&lt;&gt;/?'''
