Okay, remote debugging should not affect the server, but I'm still wondering if the server.xml you think you are using is the one actually being used. Try setting the <Connector> port to something crazy like 12345 and restarting. If you can still contact the server, then you are either editing the wrong server.xml (there should only be one!) or your changes are not being picked up. | - When I send "piraña" it is always encoded into the URL as | "pira%C3%B1a", whether running tomcat on windows, debian or even | running my app into Jetty. That's because your browser is encoding it, not the server. So, it doesn't depend on the server configuration (except possibly for the page encoding, which often directs the browser to use utf-8 URI encoding). | - If I type "piraña" on http://www.us-webmasters.com/Decode-URLs/ and | switch browser encoding display between ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8, I can | see that when ISO-8859-1, then it displays "piraña", when UTF-8, it | displays "piraña". I'm not sure what you think you're doing, there. When I paste that word into the box to decode, I get broken output. There is no indication as to what encoding the server expects for URIs. Switching browser interpretation of the resulting page does not seem to prove anything. The server never advertises any encoding to use, so the browser just chooses whatever it wants. My browser chooses ISO-8859-1. When I switch it to UTF-8, I see the expected interpretation. I'm not sure what I just learned. | - Something could be wrong in my debian environment. How can I find | out about which env. varables is tomcat using? Tomcat does not use any environment variables. The only settings that affect the interpretation of the URI are the "URIEncoding" and "useBody..." settings on the <Connector>. Are you using more than one connector? Are you using Apache httpd out in front of Tomcat? | - If I try to manually decode the returned parameter into my | controller by using URLDecoder.decode(query, "UTF-8") then I can see | no difference. That is, when debugging the tomcat on windows the | result is "piraña" while debugging the one on debian the result is | "piraña". So, running this: URLDecoder.decode(URLEncoder.encode("piraña", "UTF-8"), "UTF-8"); ...gives you "piraña" on your debian system? That doesn't seem right. | - Is URLDecoder#decode environment dependent? Nope. As long as you always provide the encoding to bs used, you should be fine. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEUEARECAAYFAkhZZR0ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCbTQCgm/eWN4Xphx9GQ4CTPZXNXdvn rigAlA5l2731npViTS8ofT4cqSi5F6o= =g6gT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
