Description Dirk Ahrnke

2021-10-12 12:07:42 CEST

It appears as if there is no documentation of naming rules for school classes. 
https://docs.software-univention.de/ucsschool-szenarien-4.4.html#concepts_names_user-classes only mentions that the school-OU is to be used as prefix. 

When trying to create a class named "AAA 1a -xxx- _A_" (which is a valid name for a group) though univention/management/#module=schoolwizards:schoolwizards/classes:0: the following error message appears:
"Name: Der Wert darf nur Ziffern, Buchstaben,
 Punkte, und Leerzeichen enthalten, muss mindestens 2 Zeichen lang sein, und mit einer Ziffer oder einem Buchstaben beginnen und enden."

This message is completely misleading as the creation of a class named "AAA 1a -xxx- _A" succeeds even if unmentioned and therefore possibly invalid characters are used.
