JBoss Portal 2.6.6 and DB UTF8 encoding

[chuaky]

hi all,

I try to run Jboss portal 2.6.6 with Postgres 8.3.3 , but encountered this error during startup:

java.sql.BatchUpdateException: Batch entry 1 insert into JBP_PORTAL_OBJECT_DNAMES (INSTANCE_PK, LOCALE, TEXT) values (59, ru, ?????) was aborted.


Later, i try to recreate the jbossportal DB at Postgres from encoding of "WIN1252" to "UTF8" and so such error during portal startup.


For the past JBoss Portal versions, i had been using the default Postgres encoding of "WIN1252" and no issue. Is that some changes to this DB creation encoding requirement?

Thank you.

Now that we have Russian l10n, it tries to include chars that are not WIN 1252 compatible.

Thanks Thomas, would use UTF8 from now on.
