Hi, with this configuration: DSpace 1.4.1 Debian 3.1 Tomcat 5.5 Oracle 10 Oracle JDBC Thin driver
our DSpace doesn´t work well with diacritics. When a new submission is done, just when I submit a new item to the appropriate collection, all the diacritics appear corrupted in the WebUI. Looking at the tables in the database, they are correcty recorded. So, it seems to me that dspace is uploading well the data, but when it shows it in the user interface (download) it makes (or doesn´t make) some kind of transformation and then the diacritics are corrupted. Our database is working with ISO-8859-1, not UTF-8. In fact, if we put the db in UTF-8 it works quite well, but due to administrative considerations, we prefer make it work with the ISO-8859-1 codepage. We have already configured Tomcat so that it works with UTF-8, and it doesn´t make any difference at all. (The browser automatically works with UTF-8 as well) We have the database in a different computer than the dspace server. Analyzing the traffic between the database, the server and the browser, we have found that the data is codified as: Upload: 1- From the browser to the dspace server: UTF-8 2- From the dspace server to the database: ISO-8859 Download: 3-From the database to the dspace server: ISO-8859 4-From the dspace server to the browser: ???? Any idea?
