Hi
We have a little problem with character encoding using GeoServer 1.7.3
and WFS.
Responses from the WFS are encoded correctly. If we ask for a feature
that has fields with polish characters with GetFeature WFS request
everything is fine. The XML we get contains polish characters.
But if we make a request to the GeoServer with polish characters (like
GetFeature with a filter that has polish characters or an insert of a
feature with polish characters) than it is not encoded properly, nothing
is ever found or the insert to the database replaces polish characters
with '?'. In GeoServer we have encoding set to UTF-8 (this is correct).
Our debugging (simple) showed that client encoded requests properly and server gets characters encoded in UTF-8. But afterwards, query is magically spoiled (as if, for instance, information about current encoding is lost).
Did you also experienced problems with encoding national characters?
Or, maybe, you can suggest what can be checked / logged / debugged...
BTW: we are using GEOS with jetty.
Thanks,
