btw.: what do you mean with
mydatabase?charSet=iso-8859-1 dburl.
In your configuration of the datasources: I use this to force Postgresql to send my everything in ISO-8859-1. This works under Tomcat / Cocoon 2.0.x on Mac OSX 10.2 (no panther yet on that machine)
<jdbc name="mypool">
<dburl>jdbc:postgresql://myserver/mydatabase?charSet=iso-8859-1</dburl>
</jdbc>
all right; to complete the story, I tried this one too; encoding is still not working.
meanwhile I think I have really set everything that is mentioned in the documentation, the wiki or the mailinglist:
-- LANG system variable -- JAVA_OPTIONS on startup -- this encoding in the driver
still the öäüÄÖÜ are not transferred correctly from the database;
I really believe now, this is a VM bug, but I am curious, that there seem to be no other OS X user, that have upgraded the Java VM and did not recognize this problem. (again: the application works fine and without problems on Linux).
