We are facing an encoding issue in apache-tomcat-6.0.20. This is working in
tomcat 5.5.23. We are trying to make a get request to external site. The

No. The page probably contains Unicode characters, all encoded in the
UTF-8 encoding. What you probably mean is that some of these characters
have a Unicode codepoint above 127 decimal, and are thus represented by
2 or more bytes in UTF-8.
When we access the page from the
application we are getting the following error.
Can you please help us to resolve this issue. Any help is appreciated.
From your log below, it does not look like you have problems when
accessing the external page. Reading the page is fine, and the content
of the page is being properly translated, from its original UTF-8
encoding, into a Unicode string in Java (in your servlet).
However, what happens next is that your servelt is trying to output this
string to the servlet output stream, which is specified as having the
ISO-8859-1 charset/encoding. And at least one of these internal Unicode
characters does not have a valid representation in ISO-8859-1. So Java
complains at the moment you are trying to write out this character,
because it cannot translate it from the internal Unicode, to the
external desired ISO-8859-1 (because that particular character does not
exist in ISO-8859-1 (which contains only the 256 characters that are
part of the latin-1 set, which covers only some Western European languages).
Now having written all that, I am still a bit uneasy, if the <83> below
represents the hexadecimal Unicode codepoint of this character. Because
0083 is a character known as "NBH", which looks like some kind of
control character. So where would that one come from, in a html page ?
