Hi guys,

I've tried follow the tutorials on i18n. Now I've added a new locale Chinese in to my demo site,; however when I try to enter some pages and content items, I got wrong coding (like ???). I assume this is because the input of the admin module didn't read the post content correctly, but I can't prove it - I am still struggling on setting up debug for my eclipse. My progress, though, was that I confirmed the database is utf8 and if I update the content in database in Chinese, the admin page can display it correctly.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Dan

Where are you seeing the ??? coding displayed? In the WYSIWYG editor?

Hi Phillip,

Thanks for reply; it was on page description field and content field.

But, I figured this out again

.
Here is what I did:

First, make sure the database is in utf8 character set; in mysql you may use

Code: Select all

create database <database-name> character set utf8;

Then change your persistent unit setting

Code: Select all

 <persistence-unit name="blPU" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
        <non-jta-data-source>jdbc/web</non-jta-data-source>
        <exclude-unlisted-classes/>
        <properties>
           <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect"/>
 
           [b]<property name="hibernate.connection.CharSet" value="utf8" />
           <property name="hibernate.connection.characterEncoding" value="utf8" />
           <property name="hibernate.connection.useUnicode" value="true" />[/b]
           
        </properties>
    </persistence-unit>

The last step:
jetty-env.xml

Code: Select all

<New class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
            <Set name="driverClassName">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</Set>
            [b]<Set name="url">jdbc:mysql://<database-url>:3306/<database-name>?autoReconnect=true&amp;useUnicode=true&amp;characterEncoding=utf-8</Set>[/b]
            <Set name="username">root</Set>
            <Set name="password">root</Set>
         </New>

Btw, make sure the core.jar that deployed to admin and site project, is up-to-date. My problem was I didn't check maven dependency and left the old core-1.0.jar there, which makes it no difference no matter what I fix later on.

Hope this will help someone.

Cheers,

Dan
