Hi,
Currently I'm using Confluene 6.10.2 behind nginx. I have some pages with the page name including character '>' could not accessible, the error is:

HTTP Status 400 - Bad Request Type Exception Report
Message Invalid character found in the request target. The valid characters are defined in RFC 7230 and RFC 3986
Description The server cannot or will not process the request due to something that is perceived to be a client error (e.g., malformed request syntax, invalid request message framing, or deceptive request routing).
Exception
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid character found in the request target. The valid characters are defined in RFC 7230 and RFC 3986 org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11InputBuffer.parseRequestLine(Http11InputBuffer.java:474) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.service(Http11Processor.java:294) org.apache.coyote.AbstractProcessorLight.process(AbstractProcessorLight..java:66) org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol$ConnectionHandler.process(AbstractProtocol.java:764) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.NioEndpoint$SocketProcessor.doRun(NioEndpoint.java:1388) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.SocketProcessorBase.run(SocketProcessorBase.java:49) java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1149) java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:624) org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.TaskThread$WrappingRunnable.run(TaskThread.java:61) java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748) Note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the server logs.
Apache Tomcat/9.0.10

But when I access the page bypassing the reverse proxy, it's ok, so it could be a problem in nginx.
I read logs in Confluence and nginx, but did not find any strange, seen like the request this page has been drop by nginx, no record found out in backend log, please advise me how to fix the issue.

I tried with some solutions, like ignore_invalid_headers to off in http level, also set rewrite , but no luck
if ($request_uri ~ ^(/.*)[>](.*)$) {
return 301 $1%3E$2;
}
