I think real cause of this issue is when user defines the network configuration like gw/dns then same IP appears on next screen for foreman_URL.

ex: let's say I defined gw/dns like 192.168.100.1/24 then same appears on next screen (Foreman Credentials) under Foreman URL: https://192.168.100.1/24

here are the suggestions:
1) Either we should leave the 'Foreman URL" field auto blank
2) Or we should validate the URL and raise appropriate error.

You are right, my thinking was to pre-populate the field if nothing was provided via kernel command line. Forgot about CIDR format. I think it is misleading to fill it from gateway, I will remove that behavior.

Oh do not use CIDR notation for GW/DNS, only for IP address. I am unable to reproduce this one. Even when I enter "/24" in all fields and also keep the incorrect http://IP:3000/24 then I get only failure (but not the error about the invalid syntax).

It looks like Ruby misinterprets "%" character, have you typed in "%" somewhere in the process?

Yeah.. I'm not using CIDR notation for GW/DNS. It was just to see the effect if I use a invalid/blank/random IP etc. Reported issue appeared on specifying Foreman URL: https://192.168.100.1/24

I'll reproduce it again.

Attached a patch that solves malformed strings for syslog. That should solve this. Removed auto-population of foreman URL from Gateway (misleading) as part of #11946 patch.
