Hallo, I save some application specific settings in file, that will be readed from application. This file contains parameters that can contain german special characters like Ö, Ä, Ü, ß etc.
I tested my application under windows 2000 professional with Tomcat 5.0 and under Linux and the german specific characters are shown correct. But by customer, that is running this web-application under Linux the german special characters are not shown correct, but they are replaced with other signs. The customer set the system variable LANG=en_US.UTF-8 (where is the file under linux where I can set the system variables?) and under Apache LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, as well as under Tomcat LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, NLS_LANG=german_germany.utf8. Are the settings wrong, so that the customer cann't see correct the special german characters or is there somer other trouble? Greetings, Stasa
