Hi,
I had the same problem. Have a look at
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-555
for a solution.

Hi,
I found that JetSpeed does not support UTF-8 encoded usernames. If you
login
as an admin and create a user with name in East Asian language, or with
other non-regular letters, like "รค" (alt+132), you can do it. But if you
type that new name in the login page, you would get a "Wrong user name"
error message, with the name screwed on UI.
The name can be kept if you add
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
at the beginning of org.apache.jetspeed.login.LoginProxyServlet.goGet.
But
you still won't be able to login, because this piece of code.
Callback[] callbacks = new Callback[] { new
NameCallback("Username: "), new PasswordCallback("Password: ", false) };
callbackHandler.handle(callbacks);
username = ((NameCallback) callbacks[0]).getName();
I assume that's how people get the user name. If the username typed in
was
UTF-8 encoded, here the username is wrong already.
The logic which causes this problem, which seems to me, is the
callbackHandler, which is an instance of
javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.SecureCallbackHandler
I guess that's something out of our control.
I heard a workaround to get the bytes from the screwed username above,
and
use those bytes to reconstruct a string UTF-8 encoded. But I am afraid
that
in the future if this issue is fixed by javax..., I would double
encode it.
Anybody has any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks,
Jay
