[opencms-dev] Problems with installation Default encoding

[uwederkoenig at web.de]

Hej! 

I think ISO-8859-1 is used for encoding, not UTF-8! 
You can set an environment variable CATALINA_OPTS to the value 
-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1 and restart your machine. This works for W2K. 
Lycka till! 
Best regards, 

Uwe König
