Matt,
I've put together a small test case in defect 40300 in the
ant.apache.org Bugzilla database. I believe I've fixed the
problem for my purposes by either eliminating the bad/unexpected
bytes in the file, if I can figure out what they are, or changing
my LANG environment variable from en_US.UTF-8 to en_US.
Still, I've opened a bug report because I think this error message
should be documented better. Also, somewhere there should be a
mention about the LANG environment variable in the Ant documentation,
since Ant uses Java, and Java seems to care about that in some way.
Regards,
Ben Pracht

If you've found the basic cause, does that mean it'd
be fairly easy for you to put together a working
example? If we can see exactly what's taking place,
maybe we can do something.

I feel like keeping this a secret since only one
person responded.
Nevertheless, the message really means the contents
of the file being
filtered contain characters which cannot be
translated into UTF-8, I
believe. It would have been more helpful to just
issue a complete stack
trace rather than this message.
I know other people have had this message before, so
I hope it helps them.

Any guesses on this? The source file exists and
has a non-zero length
and the target directory exists as well.
Thanks,
Ben
