AW: [opencms-dev] the encoding of your Java VM is different from the OpenCms encoding!

[Sebastian Jekutsch]

Hi Peter,
 
do you start Tomcat as a Windows service? In this case, CATALINE_OPTS doesn't seem to work. You should do as told in the installation:
 
*	Open regedit.exe with the "run" option of your Windows start menu. 
*	Locate your Tomcat service under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services (usually Apache Tomcat) 
*	Check the Parameters list and create a new parameter: with the right mouse button press "New", select "String Value" and add: 
    Name: JVM Option Number 3 (the number should be the next available in line) 
    Value: -Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1 (enter your desired encoding) 
*	Edit the key JVM Option Count and increase the value by 1. 
*	Reboot Windows. 
 
 
Sebastian

	Hi all,
	 
	OK..I have googled this and found many poepl have had the same issue, but none of thier solutions have helped me to date and I'm wondering if anyone can assist me here with thier knowlege and previous experience...
	 
	OS: Windows XP (Home Edition) ver 5.1
	Tomcat: Version 4.1
	OpenCMS: 5.0.1
	JDK: 1.4
	 
	CATALINA_OPTS=-Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1
	I also added the parameter -Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1 to the command line behind the call of the java executable. 
	 
	But no luck....I am still getting the same error..
	 
Error: the encoding of your Java VM is different from the OpenCms encoding!
 
Java VM file encoding:	 Cp1252	
OpenCms encoding:	 ISO-8859-1	
	 
	.... and no matter what I try I can't figure out what is causing this error, any suggestions? direction?
	 
	Thanks in advance for any help you can give me on this!
	 
	Best,
	 
	Peter Baxter
