I'm not sure, but it seems to me that the encoding specified in the source
XML file doesn't make any difference. I came accross some comments in the
source code saying thet the setEncoding() method hasn't been implemented
yet.
You can specify an encoding when serializing. But the default is UTF-8, I
think...
If you want to try, use for example
<map:serializer name="html" mime-type="text/html"
src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HTMLSerializer">
<encoding>ISO-8859-1</encoding>
</map:serializer>
in your sitemap.
As I said, we experienced almost the same problem, but only when data was
written to disk (e.g. logfiles). So you can try adding the encoding to the
serializer.
You can also try adding the file.encoding, we're using Cocoon with Tomcat,
so I put -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859_1 in the TOMCAT_OPTS variable used when
tomcat is started...
A list of encodings:

Hope this helps, this is what solved our problems...

Subject: Re: [C2b2] Unicode output
I don't know if this will help me or not. I am running RedHat Linux 6.2
and I do not currently use XSP anywhere. I also do not specify an
encoding when serializing. The XML source file has encoding="UTF-8" in
it's <?xml ...?> PI, do I also have to say something to that effect in
my sitemap in the <map:serialize .../> element? Thank you for your response.
