Problems with UTF8-Encoding

Old Versions
#1

Hi there,

 

Since the very first day of my cmdbuild installation version 2.0, i've got problems with UTF-8 Encoding.

Characters like ä,ö,ü and the spanish special characters can't be displayed correctly.

 

In the beginning i didn't care because just a few people in my company used it but now there are lots of german and spanish collegues who want to use it.

 

I just googled a little bit and added a DefaultCharset to the httpd.conf of the apache config file.

Do i have to change something in the jsp file or in another config file.

As it looks like everywhere UTF8 Encoding seems to be configured.

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

You have to start Tomcat with option "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"

I've added the parameter in Java Options and it displays everything fine now.

But i've got one problem.

When i "Print cards" as "CSV" and i click Download and Save the CSV, i've got still the problem with UTF8.

AS PDF it works fine?

 

Do i have to change something in the export function?

 

best regards,

If you save the CSV file and then open it from Excel by specifying to use the UTF8 format it works.
