forums UTF-8 handling

[dindras]

Hi,

I have installed Alfresco Community Edition v3.3 in Linux environment (with "–mode console").
The problem is with alfresco explorer forums: whenever I create topic or post reply in discussion using UTF-8 encoded chars (e.g. ąčę), the web browser hangs, endlessly waiting for reply. The same behavior appears afterwards, when trying to display that topic/discussion. Along the mentioned, alfresco's java process boosts to a cosmic rate chewing processor resources and stays in that condition till "alfresco.sh stop" is called.
There are no any errors in logs.
I didn't notice problem with using UTF-8 anywhere else in alfresco, everything is displayed/entered correctly.

Any solutions how to overcome this situation?

check tables and columns in mysql for UTF-8 .

Thanks for noticing that, but table incoding seemed to be OK, strange but under alfresco share all UTF inputs worked well.

So I "solved" this problem by installing the latest nightly 3.3G build from:
  http://dev.alfresco.com/downloads/nightly/dist/

I installed it upon existing alfresco database & existing alf_data - I'm having no problem with UTF simbols now (in addition, several other bugs have been squashed - well done guys!)
