![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description On non-English machines customer need some of the application server to have JVM setting UTF-8 and this causes the admin console to stop working properly. This is because the admin console is an ear file and does not work with that parameter.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server 4.0 Advanced * * Edition Single Server users of a DBCS * * local and using client.encoding.override * * JVM setting. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The Thin Admin fails to work properly * * when the client.encoding.override JVM * * setting is used on a DBCS locale. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The Thin Admin on WebSphere Application Server AEs fails to work properly when the machines locale is set to a Double-Byte Character Set (DBCS) and the server's JVM settings have the client.encoding.override set. When attempting to install an EAR file on this type of environment, the user interface would not allow the user to proceed to the next panel. When the user clicks on the "Install" button, the same page would be refreshed and it would not go to the next panel to install an EAR file. This issue could arise in other sections of the Thin Admin as well. This setup that this issue was raised against was on a Japanese locale with client.encoding.override set to UTF-8. However, this could happen on various locales and client.encoding.override settings.Problem conclusion The Thin Admin code was modified to set the response's content-type charset to the value of the client.encoding.override setting (if it was set). This change was made in a location so that it would apply to all of the Thin Admin JSPs.Temporary fix This temporary fix will set the servlet response's content-type to the encoding that was specified in the client.encoding.overri de JVM setting.Comments
