Hello List, I'm running dspace 1.5 rev 3007.
There seems to be a problem storing utf8 chars. Sometimes "æøå" is stored as "æøå" in the database. By looking in the tables I came up with this Tables where utf8 stored correctly : - metadatafieldregistry - collection Tables where ut8f is stored wrong : - eperson - metadatavalue Strange thing when adding a new metafield : If you enter something in scope_note and press "Add new metadata field", "æøå" will appear as "æøå" in the textarea. But it is stored correctly in the database. If you click on a stored metafield, "æøå" will show as "æøå" in textarea. I have followed the installation instructions and configured tomcat and db with utf8. If it was configured wrongly, I guess I would have utf8 problems everywhere and not just in some areas.
