Hi there,

we are facing a serious problem with fetching UTF-8 chars (especially for german umlauts). Everytime when the form (in our case the identity porlet - which is a jsf app) submits, the chars are broken/grappled before they even reach my own implemented charset filter, which only sets the request encoding to "UTF-8".

Does anyone countered such a problem too?

Ways we tried to solve the problem:

• adding -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to JAVA_OPTS
• the charset filter which was already mentioned
• setting URIEncode on Connector
• the portal runs in full UTF-8

Any advice is welcome!

Cheers
