When I try to use hungarian characters in a xhtml file, i receive an error message:

Invalid byte 2 of 4-byte UTF-8 sequence.

How could I solve this probelm?

Wrong forum.
Set the character encoding in the <?xml header.

When try to save a character like 'é' in websale's input field, the character changed to 'é'.
How could i resolve this problem?
Thanks!

There's an encoding mismatch somewhere.

You need to be clearer about where you're seeing the bogus characters. In the database? On the screen?

It looks like somewhere UTF-8 is being interpreted as Latin-1 (or whatever it's called these days).

Thanks for reply!

In the database the variable saved as 'é'. When i try to get strings from database, contains 'áéó...', they are show up fine. Could it be, that the #{var['...']} variables dosen't support utf-8? Other something else..

Thank You!

This is just a guess...

Try setting Java system property
file.encoding
to
UTF-8

Typically using -D on command line of whatever's running the app.

Thanks again for reply.

I have added the "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" property to JAVA_OPTS in server/bin/run.bat, but unfortunately nothing has changed. Is that what you exactly suggested?

I'm guessing at this point.
The next thing I'd check is the database.
What are you using?
Have you checked whether the columns holding strings can deal with UTF-8?
Also, if the database doesn't know from UTF-8, what you saw there might well be correct, if it's just saving the 2-byte characters as 2 1-byte characters - it may be upconverted back to Unicode on the way out. Are the characters messed up when displayed through the app, also?

Sorry I can't be more helpful - anyone else?

I'am using MySQL, but I tried it in an original suite with HSQL too, but the problem was the same. I think this is not the database's mistake, because I can display any special character in the webapp, that stored in db.

Could anyone help me?
Thanks!

Any idea to solve this problem?

http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-958 ???

I put the useBodyEncodingForURI="true" tag to the referred place, but nothing has changed. In deploy directory there is a jbossweb-tomcat55.sar instead of jboss-web.deployer.

add -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to eclipse.ini

[fuligj]

I added it to the ini file, started the eclipse, saved my xhtml file as and redeploy my process, but nothing has has changed.

maybe it is a problem in the jbpm converters (if used) Try putting some additional debug statements in the jbpm sourcecode and start from there to see where the strings are still good and where they go wrong
