I guess I did - strange that it happens only on the one
server.. maybe UNIX less "forgiving" than Linux.
 
Is there a "default" encoding that Cocoon makes use of?
IOW, if I import or reuse stylesheets from Cocoon samples
etc. will I expect to see these in UTF-8?  Can I simply omit
the encoding parameter from *all* my files and set a default
for the entire project (in the sitemap, for example).  That
way I could avoid the "mixing" problem you refer to.
 
Or if this is all spelt out in great detail, somewhere, I'd like
to go and read up about it...
 
Thanks
Derek

They are different.

If your app only uses "latin" characters, you could use one or the
other. Otherwise, you should use UTF-8.

But beware that mixing is not good, especially if you mix them in the
same document. Both encodings encode the same characters in very
different ways (except for standard ASCII, which happens to be encoded
the same). If you mix, you may run into trouble. You probably already
ran into trouble. ;-)
