[opencms-dev] OpenCMS, finally got it working!

[Ilja]

Vincent, I owe you one! It was an encoding problem indeed. After setting
the encoding back to ISO-8859-1 in the opencms.properties and adding the
line:

JAVA_OPTS='-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1'

in my $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh it finally worked.

Thanks alot,

I'm off to start playing with the system, looks good so far,

Ilja
