[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-4031) file.encoding is not correct

file.encoding is not correct ---------------------------- Key: AS7-4031 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4031 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Environment: OpenSuse 12, SLES 11 Reporter: Idar Borlaug Priority: Trivial When starting jboss i get file.encoding = ANSI_X3.4-1968 in boot.log My jbossuser has locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= java -jar test.jar print file.encoding=UTF-8 Java reads the locale info fine, jboss just ignores it. Setting file.encoding=UTF-8 has no effect in jboss 7.0.2 (the boot.log prints UTF-8, but new File("filename") still uses something else) but works in 7.1.0
