Hello, 

I want to share my experience with Apache2 and Care2x. 

Until now I always failed running properly Care2x under apache2. The
problem was the character encoding. For some reason the web server
returned always UTF-8 to the browser, instead the specified character
encoding in the meta data of the web page (example: windows-1251 for
Bulgarian). This produces lots of "monkey" chars under certain
languages. 

I found that the reason is in the AddDefaultCharset directive in the
apache2.conf file. By default it is commented. The documentation says
that this is the same as "AddDefaultCharset Off", which means that the
effective character encoding is the one specified in the meta data of
the web page. But for some reason (bug?) the default state of this
directive is actually "AddDefaultCharset UTF-8", which means that the
web pages served by this web server will be always in UTF-8. 

I changed the directive to "AddDefaultCharset Off" and now everything is
OK. 

I hope this could help somebody with the same problem. 

Greetings
Kaloyan
