[opencms-dev] Umlaut character problems

I am using OpenCMS 5.0 in its default configuration:

The opencms.properties file has an entry:

defaultContentEncoding=ISO-8859-1

and I have a shell variable

CATALINA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1

When I create a new page and I use umlaut (äöüß)
characters for the Title of the page or for the
navigation string, the title is displayed with a
question mark in the explorer view, and the navigation
string is displayed with a question mark at all web
pages. The question mark is of course where the umlaut
character was.

The body text however displays umlaut characters
correctly. 

What is going wrong here? Please advise.
