If you are complaining about Web Application (other than SOLR) (probably behind-the Apache HTTPD) having encoding problem - try to troubleshoot it with Mozilla Firefox + Live Http Headers plugin.
Look at "Content-Encoding" HTTP response headers, and don't forget about <meta http-equiv... > tag inside HTML... -Fuad http://www.tokenizer.org -----Original Message----- From: Bernadette Houghton [mailto:bernadette.hough...@deakin.edu.au] Sent: August-26-09 12:55 AM To: 'solr-user@lucene.apache.org' Subject: encoding problem We have an encoding problem with our solr application. That is, non-ASCII chars displaying fine in SOLR, but in googledegook in our application . Our tomcat server.xml file already contains URIencoding="UTF-8" under the relevant <connector>. A google search reveals that I should set the encoding for the JVM, but have no idea how to do this. I'm running Windows, and there is no tomcat process in my Windows Services.
