Sohil Shah commented on JBPORTAL-1693:
--------------------------------------

This issue is because of a bug in JDK that has not been addressed for about 8 years now. Here is a pretty funny bug report ;)

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4244499

Problem is associated with native zip implementations creating file names in UTF-16 (foreign characters), but when the JDK Zip classes process this zip file, it only has provision to process the file names in UTF-8 resulting in null inputstreams of the
Zip entries.

Cleanest fix is to dump the use of JDK classes and use something like apache ant's tools.

I have tested the apache fix locally and seems to be working. More testing is necessary though

> When upload some zipped file to CMS with special characters, eg. filename = 'camión.txt', CMS throws an error.
> When I upload these files one by one as single file (non zipped) it works fine.
