[opencms-dev] Problems with starting up the product

[Ivan Jelenic]

Hi Alex,

Try to start Tomcat like this:

C:\j2sdk1.4.0_02\bin\java.exe -jar -Dfile.encoding="UTF-8" -Duser.dir="C:\To
mcat 4.1" "C:\Tomcat 4.1\bin\bootstrap.jar" start

This is my shortcut on W2K and change my UTF-8 with ISO-8859-1. It will
solve your problems. Cp1252 is a default encoding of your JVM.

Hope it will help.
Best regars,
Ivan.
