New encoding for tomcat

[Burak Celebi]

Hi,

How can I install a new encoding(iso-8859-6) support to tomcat?

I have no problems with my locale tomcat, however at serverside charecters are not displayed properly.

Thanks in advance.

On Linux boxes, I add this line to the top of my startup.sh wrapper:
export LANG=en_US.iso885915

thank ypuı for your reply

I added

export LANG=ar_AE.iso88596

to startup.sh but there is no change.

hi,
try this:

In the Catalina.bat (windows) catalina.sh (windows)
apache$jakarta_config.com (OpenVMS), file there must be a switch added to
the call to java.exe. The switch is:

-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 (or what do you need)

I cannot find documentation for this environment variable anywhere or what
it actually does but it is essential.
