[Geoserver-users] Encoding Problem

[Hugo]

Hello all,

I'm facing some problems with encodings on a RHEL server. When uploading an
SLD through Geoserver interface all portuguese characters are being
converted into a question mark.

I have defined Geoserver character encoding as UTF-8 and my SLD encoding as
well. Nevertheless, geoserver is writing the sld files with us-ascii
encoding. I've tried to force JAVA to use UTF-8 encoding through the option
-DFile.encoding=UTF-8 (tried it on JAVA_OPTS and CATALINA_OPTS) but results
are the same.

The OS lang returned by env | grep LANG is en_US.UTF-8.

What am i missing here?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

[Hugo]

Hello all,

For the future reference, if someone faces the same, it was a typo when
defining encoding in JAVA_OPTS.

Adding -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to JAVA_OPTS in catalina.sh solved the problem.

Cheers,
Hugo

Hello, this is my firs post.
I'm facing the same problem for couple of days only for croatian digraphs.
I'm running RHEL 7.3 with geoserver 2.10 on top of Tomcat 8.
My server locale setting is LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Unit file looks like this:

[Unit]
Description=Apache Tomcat Web Application Container
After=syslog.target network.target
Before=shutdown.target


[Service]
Type=forking
User=tomcat
Group=tomcat

Environment=JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/jre
Environment=CATALINA_PID=/var/run/geo1.pid
Environment=CATALINA_HOME=/srv/geo1
Environment=CATALINA_BASE=/srv/geo1
Environment='CATALINA_OPTS=-Xms512M -Xmx1024M -server -XX:+UseParallelGC
-DGEOSERVER_NODE_OPTS="id:geoserver1"
-DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR="/geoserver/conf"'
Environment='JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.awt.headless=true
-Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8'

ExecStart=/srv/geo1/bin/startup.sh
ExecStop=/bin/kill -15 $MAINPID

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target


Still there is no luck to correctly see some digraphs like e.g. žćč.
In other environment I have RHEL 7.2 and it works ok.

Any help appreciated.

Problem resolved.

I have installed two packages that comes with firefox

liberation-fonts-common
liberation-sans-fonts

--------------------------

Also, if you anyone encounter problems with custom fonts.
I have placed fonts in GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR/conf/styles. Geserver has logged
that it loaded fonts successfuly, but they were not visible in GUI console.
Then I created directory /usr/local/share/fonts, and placed fonts inside
fonts dir.
After reloading geoserver, everything works fine.

BR,
Jasmin

Can you explain here? What does it mean that were were successfully loaded
and yet
not visible in the GUI?
