Hi Jason
This could be a problem with the default character encoding on Windows - you
could try setting
-Dfile.encoding=utf-8
in CATALINA_OPTS
Though this does point to some code in Fedora making some bad assumptions about
encoding.

Hi Stephen,
I've now tried this on a Windows machine with Fedora 3.4 installed under an
existing Tomcat 6 installation, and similarly on a Debian machine, with Fedora
3.3 installed under an existing Tomcat 6 installation.
The problem only appears on Windows, which therefore doesn't worry me too much
as this is not a production environment.
Cheers,
Jason

That doesn't look right.
Do you have a FOXML file that you ingested to create this object?

Hi Stephen,
Yes, had a look and I find
<foxml:datastreamVersion ID="DS2.flv.0" LABEL="Taku wh%u0101nau (My family)"
CREATED="2011-06-13T09:10:48.936Z" MIMETYPE="video/x-flv" SIZE="11442494">
Cheers,

Hi Jason
Sounds like there could be an encoding issue in the display.
To make sure it's ingested and stored correctly in the FOXML, could you take a
look at the FOXML (eg /objects/some:pid/export) and see what the label looks
like there?

The datastream content itself seems fine (i.e. displays as "Taku whānau"),
however in the label fields in web admin display and in the web page display in
the REST interface (e.g.
http://localhost:8080/fedora/objects/test:1/datastreams) the text is appearing
as "Taku wh%u0101nau".

Regarding the character encoding, FOXML should be using UTF-8 for these.
Where are you seeing the unicode codepoints (ie how are you accessing the
label) - does there seem to be any problem in the FOXML itself?

Subject: [fcrepo-user] A couple of questions: character encoding andfiletype
extensions
I notice that when I store flash videos (and I presume other types of content)
in Fedora Commons, I can EXPORT the file from the administration interface with
the filetype extension, but when I call the object content from the datastream,
although the mimetype as defined is used (video/x-flv), there is no extension
on the URL:
http://localhost:8080/fedora/objects/test:1/datastreams/DS2.flv/content
This is presumably by design, but can someone confirm that there is no way to
call the object with a filetype extension?
Also, I notice that when I create objects that include non-latin characters
(e.g. "Taku whÄ nau"), they end up with the unicode code point in the title
(e.g. "Taku wh%u0101nau").
Is this expected behaviour?
Thanks,
Jason
