[LINUX] Encoding problem when my application is started at boot

Hello,

I've got an encoding problem with my java application under a Mandriva

10.1.

Specs :

- java sdk 1.4.2_08

- Choosed encoding ISO-8859-1

- Mandriva LANG variable is FR

The application works with Tomcat and a servlet that makes the bridge

to a database.

The facts:

When i start tomcat and the servlet on the boot time (i've made a link

from my script to /etc/rc5.d/), the accents are replaced by ?.

After that, if i stop/start the services, it works very good.

NB: I run tomcat and the servlet with the java param

-Dfile.encoding="ISO-8859-1"

It seems to me that at boot time, java is not starting my app with the

correct encoding.

Does anyone have an idea ?

Thanks for your help.

Fred

Set some appropriate environment variables in the starter script that influence the default encoding. LANG=fr_FR

public class file_encoding {

public static void main(String args[]) {

System.out.println(g("os.arch") + " " + g("os.name") + " "+ g("os.version") + " " +

g("java.vendor") + " " + g("java.version") + " " + g("java.vm.specification.version"));

System.out.println(g("file.encoding"));

}

static String g(String name) { return System.getProperty(name); }

}

$ echo $LANG

en_US.latin2

$ java file_encoding
