[opencms-dev] problem with umlauts with OpenCMS 6

[Fabian Huschka]

Hello,

it seems that encoding gets messed up. It will help if you can provide
the release versions for OpenCms, the database and the servlet container
(e.g. Tomcat).

At a first glance I asume one of the following reasons apply:

- Did you upgrade your MySQL database lately (e.g. 4.0.x to 4.1.x or 5.x)?
- Have you included the following meta-tag in the HEAD section of your
HTML-code?

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

- Incompatible version of the MySQL-JDBC driver (look at /WEB-INF/lib)
- Within /WEB-INF/config/opencms.properties you may want to add:

# optional parameters for the URL of the JDBC driver
db.pool.default.jdbcUrl.params=?characterEncoding\=UTF-8

- Is the default encoding set right (/WEB-INF/config/opencms-system.xml)?

It shall read <defaultcontentencoding>UTF-8</defaultcontentencoding>

Regards,

\Fabian
