forums and commons-fileupload-1.1 --------------------------------- Key: JBFORUMS-247 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBFORUMS-247 Project: JBoss Forums Issue Type: Bug Environment: JBoss as from http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/tags/JBoss_4_0_5_GA_CP06, JBoss Portal from http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/portal/trunk since 9 july 2007, JBoss Forums from http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossforums/branches/forums101P26 since 9 july 2007 Reporter: Luca Stancapiano Assigned To: Ryszard Kozmik Attachments: ForumsJSFPortlet.java hi....I send you to see http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1550 by me reported. It is the same problem......if you post messages using 'multipart/form-data' through commons-fileupload libs, you miss character encoding because there is a incompatibility between tomcat 5.5.23 and fileupload 1.1, and then if you try to send messages with characters as à, è, ì, ò, ù you 'll get problems of decoding with strange characters of response. Also for Forums I send you a patch. I substituted getString() method of org.apache.commons.fileupload.disk.DiskFileItem class with getString( String ...) method, passing inside the character encoding of the request: org.jboss.portlet.forums.ui.ForumsJSFPortlet : row 560 I write : newParams.put(item.getFieldName(), new String[]{item.getString(req.getCharacterEncoding())}); instead of: newParams.put(item.getFieldName(), new String[]{item.getString()}); org.jboss.portlet.forums.ui.ForumsJSFPortlet : row 564 I write: String value = item.getString(req.getCharacterEncoding()); instead of: String value = item.getString(); -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
