Re: [xwiki-users] problem with Chinese

Some ideas: * Check that the tables are really using UTF-8: get a mysql shell, open the xwiki database and type "select charset(xwd_content from xwikidoc;". If it does not say UTF-8, then you need to change the encoding. I've attached a script that tries to do that (and creates indexes, too) * Check that the mysql connections are set to UTF-8. "show variables like 'character_set%';". If it says something else, you can either globally set the mysql encoding to utf-8 (in the mysql configuration file, search the mysql documentation), or configure hibernate to request this: <xwiki-dir>/WEB-INF/hibernate.cfg.xml, add <property name="connection.characterEncoding">utf8</property> after: <property name="connection.driver_class">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver </property> * Check that you set all the encoding parameters to UTF-8: ** in WEB-INF/xwiki.cfg: xwiki.encoding=UTF-8 ** in WEB-INF/web.xml: <param-name>encoding</param-name> <param-value>UTF-8</param-value> ** in WEB-INF/velocity.properties: input.encoding=UTF-8 output.encoding=UTF-8 After this, it should work just fine.

The Wiki can work well to display Chinese in the edit situation and view situation. After I change the wiki by writing Chinese in it. And change it again. If I roll back the version, the Chinese characters will become something like "?????". How to solve this problem?
