You could try setting your file.encoding system property.
That might help.

Sun changed the default value for this property in JDK1.4
On *nix systems it changed from ISO-8859-1 to ASCII.

Subject: handling of Unicode still broken in 4.1.24


Hello,

I've been using Tomcat 4.0.6 for some time now, because neither 4.1.12 
nor 4.1.18 handled my Unicode correctly.

When 4.1.18 came out, my co-worker Paul Caton posted to this list asking 
for help on this issue. I had supposed by now the issue would have been 
solved, so I cheerily and with much anticipation installed 4.1.24.

However, the unicode handling is still bad in 4.1.24, so we are sticking 
with 4.0.6.  We're wondering if this issue is going to be addressed in 
future releases.

I am willing to send the actual URLs of the tomcat servers on which the 
test documents reside to any developer who wants them, but I'd rather 
not post those URLs to the public at large. I can also send any jsp 
code, xsl stylesheets, Xinclude stuff, etc.

In lieu of that here, I'll just give the URLs of two comparative 
screenshots to show the differences in the Unicode handling:

bad: http://dev.stg.brown.edu/screenshots/acsam-4.1.24.jpg
good: http://dev.stg.brown.edu/screenshots/acsam-4.0.6.jpg

Thank you very much for any help with this!
