[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-574) Japanese garbage characters in WMS Get Feature Info

Japanese garbage characters in WMS Get Feature Info
---------------------------------------------------

         Key: GEOS-574
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-574
     Project: GeoServer
        Type: Bug

  Components: WMS
    Versions: 1.3.0
Environment: OS:Windows2000 Tomcat5.5
    Reporter: Akira Sugawara
Assigned to: Gabriel Roldán
    Priority: Critical

Hi, all

When I tested WMS Get Feature Info on latest GeoServer (ver 1.3.0 for win), I found that the Japanese characters in the respons of WMS Get Feature Info from GeoServer was garbled.
WMS client that I used is uDig and MapInfoPro8.

I tried to find out the issue and checked the all packets from GeoServer.
I finally found out as follows.
1. The character type from GeoServer is surely sent by UTF-8.
2. But there was no charset in the header of the packets.
   I found only "Content-Type: text/html" or "Content-Type: text/plain"

I think the issue of this case is this.
It should be "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8" for multibyte charactere like Japanese.
How do you think about it?
If you can do it , I will test it immediately in Japanese environment.

Thanks.

-Akira
