I'm using Tomcat 5.5.9 (in Windows). I've tried but I don't have
any problem. Try to upgrade your Tomcat.

I'm using Tomcat 4.1.29 on Windows. I have a context setup which contains
some image files (simple jpgs). In the conf/server.xml file, the context
looks something like:
<context path="photos" docBase="c:\photodirectory" debug="0"
privileged="true" />
Some of the filenames in this directory have non-English characters (e.g.,
ESPAÑA.jpg).
For the associated website, I have some html pages which refer to these
photos using an image tag that looks something like:
<img src=http://myhost/photos/ESPAÑA.jpg ...
The problem is that the photos with non-English characters aren't being
displayed (it appears that Tomcat is unable to find them). I thought URL
Encoding the filename would fix the problem, but it doesn't. Some of my
experiments indicate that the browser (at least IE) will URL encode it
anyway as it makes the request. The html pages are being sent to the
browser as utf-8.
As a test, I hardcoded the picture to be ESPANA.jpg in the html page and
changed the filename in the file system. Everything worked fine. Photos
that don't have non-English characters also work fine. Unfortunately, the
photos are constantly changing and so I don't have the option of simply
renaming the files unless I find a way to do it that can automatically be
applied to future files as well as the current ones.
My suspicion is that Tomcat isn't URL decoding the filename.
Does anyone have any insight into this problem or suggestions about the
best way to fix the problem?
