First, Are you using some database? Some old tips (from my friend Barbara):
1-Ensure that every XML is starting with: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> 2-In the site map check for your serializer: <map:serializer logger="sitemap.serializer.html" mime-type="text/html" name="html" pool-grow="4" pool-max="32" pool-min="4" src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HTMLSerializer"> <doctype-public>-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//ES</doctype-public> <doctype-system>http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd</doctype-system> <buffer-size>1024</buffer-size> <encoding>ISO-8859-1</encoding> <!-- West Europe --> </map:serializer> (Please, see the encoding tag above) 3-If you are using xml serializer you can do that too: <map:serializer logger="sitemap.serializer.xhtml" mime-type="text/html" name="xhtml" pool-grow="2" pool-max="64" pool-min="2" src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.XMLSerializer"> <doctype-public>-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN</doctype-public> <doctype-system>http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd</doctype-system> <encoding>ISO-8859-1</encoding> </map:serializer> (Please, see the encoding tag above) 4- If you are using some database check that it is working with the code you need, for example in PostgreSQL i created the databse using: createdb -E LATIN1 -e my_database_name I hope it will helps you.
