I have tested slide 2.1 and utf8 with filestore and SQLServer store - both are working fine.

Make sure that slide has been set to utf8 in slide.priperties file, that the connector in server.xml is set to utf8, and the store is using utf8.

The only bug I have found in slide 2.1 with resprct to utf8 is the report function. While propfind returns nicely utf8 encoded data, the report method is returning local server characterset encoding in the body even though the encoding in the top of the body claims to be utf8.

Try and test this with the file store. Remember if you are using windows, then you should add parameter -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to make the filestore support utf8. Slide.properties is default set to utf8. If you are using TC5 the add URIEncoding="UTF-8" to the connector in server.xml.

I am not sure that I understand you explaination about encoding back and forth between utf8 and iso8859-1. Just not that the url in the request headers are escaped utf8, where as the utf8 in the request/response body in not.

Hooow shit!
Tried here. Indeed slide mess with the accents when sending it's result to the
client. I created a file with accents. Platform encoding is utf-8, slide
encoding is utf-8, client is the kde webdav protocol working nicely with
accent on other webdav implementations. However, result of a propfind
(sniffed with ethereal) send by slide server is like if string was converted
to an utf-8 byte array and then converted back to string as an iso8859-1 byte
array. (This is the typical round copyright sign followed by another char
which we all see when a browser tries to open an utf-8 page as an iso8859
one). This look like it's done before server put it in the propfind result
dom. Problem being it's the server doing the messup before url encoding. For
information, not only the href is wrong but also the displayname. Clients
bear no responsability in problem.



I also took a look in database, as we store document on an oracle database, the uri and the displayname are all ok. So seems like it's the servlet on output which mess something. I'll do some step by step analysis and keep you informed if i can find a way around this.

Note to slide-dev, this is a real problem big problem as the document becomes
unmanageable!
