Patching JBoss Portal for UTF-8 character set support

We have patched JBoss Portal to correctly set the UTF-8 encoding for pages. But - the patch has not been applied to the specific JBoss bundle you download with Alfresco yet.We have uploaded a patch file for JBoss Portal to here:http://www.alfresco.org/resource/portal-server-lib.zipStop JBoss, unZip

Hi Kevin,

The patch is not complete I think, if you apply it to the stock jboss-portal.sar there are still some issues. If you apply it to a redeployed jboss portal with the following fixes applied, it works fine and dandy

Fix 1:
core/src/main/org/jboss/portal/core/invocation/ContentTypeInterceptor.java
line 115, add

response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");‍

Fix 2:
/server/src/main/org/jboss/portal/server/servlet/AbstractMainServlet.java
line 76, replace doGet with the following:

    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) throws ServletException, IOException
   {
      log.info("Setting character encoding to UTF-8…");
      req.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
      PortalServer container = getContainer();
      ServerManager manager = container.getManager();
      InvocationFactory ctx = manager.getInvocationContext();
      Invocation invocation = ctx.decode(req, resp);
      invoke(invocation);
   }
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Compile, deploy, unjar the .sar and apply your patch… now everything UTF8 works fine

Regards,
Michael
