Hi Jackson,

So excited to hear that you finished the Chinese resource file.

I'll try it immediately.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely, Wang Ning

I have translated resource file into Chinese ,
http://mail-archive.objectweb.org/xwiki-dev/2006-12/msg00092.html
and config xwiki with Chinese language
http://mail-archive.objectweb.org/xwiki-dev/2006-12/msg00082.html
Maybe i put these messages into wrong place, sorry.

2007/3/20, bey <[hidden email]>:

If you have not found My.cnf, then please create it in both 'mysql/bin' and 'mysql/data'.

So If your xwiki is working on windows then you will find a 'bat' file from which Tomcat start (in the Tomcat directory). Open it and modify.

ps. You need to create My.cnf only in the case of MySQL. I haven't any idea on how to do it with HsqlDB - If I understand you have tried both MySql and HsqlDB.

Please do the same thing whether your XWiki is working on Linux - for tomcat  modifiy 'catalina.sh' and create My.cnf

Cheers

Hi Wang,

 

This problem have also took for longtime to solve it (in fact, I faced it before and hope that it correspond to yours). So I am using multilingual data in my XWiki (Arabic, Chinese, English, French and Japanese) and everything is working well with the UTF-8 encoding (MySQL, Tomcat, XWiki).

 

I read all your emails and responses. It seems that someone adviced you to check again the database encoding. Yes, the problem is related to the encoding of char in the database and it is simple to solve. In fact, it seems that MySql display that it's char encoding is in UTF-8 but you need also to add the following lines to my.cnf :

In my system, there is only my.ini. So I edit my.ini following your advise below.

[client]
default-character-set=utf8
[mysqld]
default-character-set=utf8
character-set-server = utf8
collation-server = utf8_general_ci

 

Also check the following parameters for your Tomcat UTF-8 encoding (for linux, check catalina.sh):

I use Tomcat 5.5. I can't  find something like start.bat. So I don't know how to set Tomcat to UTF-8 encoding. May you tell me the detail?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

echo off
rem set LANG=fr_FR.ISO8859-1
set LANG=en_US.UTF-8
set JETTY_PORT=8080
set JETTY_HOME=.
java %JAVA_OPTS% -Djetty.port=%JETTY_PORT% -Djetty.home=%JETTY_HOME% -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar %JETTY_HOME%/start.jar

 

 

 

Add the following variables to your system
-----------------------------------------------------------
LANG = en-US_UTF8

Change the XWiki encoding :

-----------------------------------------
   (i) XWiki.xml
           encoding = UTF-8
   (ii) XWiki.cfg
          CharSet = UTF-8

I do what I can, But there still do not work. "???" still exist.

If this configuration work well, so we need after that to write (as suggested) a document for helping new users.

 

Please let us know whether it work?

 

Cheers

Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] problem with Chinese

Hi Jimmy,

I tried again, and I think I found something more.

I use the xwiki without any change about encoding, just using default encoding ISO-8859-1. Use Jetty and HsqlDB. I write Chinese twice. Then roll back. The words can display correctly. But the only problem is that if I use Wiki text editor, I found that Chinese characters show like %D6%D0%CE%C4. It's can work in both view and roll-back. Therefore, I think the charaters can saved correctly in the database using ISO-8859-1. And it gose alone well with the WYSIWYG editor. But it's not convenient at all as I can't see any Chinese. So I think the ISO-8859-1 can't display Chinese characters in xwiki editor.

But if I instead ISO-8859-1 with UTF-8 int the web.xml xwiki.cfg and velocity.properties. Roll-back problem came again. But Chinese show properly int xwiki ext editor.

Hope to help some.

Thanks,
Sincerely, Wang Ning

Hi Jackson,

I'm really sorry we didn't apply your patch. Actually the recommendation is to create a JIRA issue and attach your patch to it. This allows us to not forget anything. See http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Contributing for more details. If you could do this that would be great as we'll be able to schedule your patch for inclusion.

Thanks again!

Hi Sergiu,

I just know how to make roll-back work well with Chinese characters. I will post the steps later. But now I have to go sleep.

Thanks for all suggestions.

Sincerely, Wang Ning

The question marks mean that in the database the document is not stored well.

I just checked it, and the rollback does not work well. Let me debug this a little on my system.

Ning, what do you want to say with "roll-back"? As in roll-back an older version from the history?

You're welcome. And don't mind the time, it's more important to rest well.

Hello all,

When I came back to write the steps, I found this page http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Encoding. The suggestions in the page is exactly correct. The other thing I can't say is that you only need to add - Dfile.encoing=UTF-8 to configure java application server. If you use tomcat5.5 which do not has catalina.sh or start.bat. You have to run tomcat5.5.exe and add -Dfile.encoing=UTF-8 in the graphical user interfaces tomcat properties configure->java->option. See the attachment.

Hi Sergiu,

I'm just thinking something would we use UTF-8 as a default encoding for XWiki? It support both Chinese and English well.

Thanks.
