As far as I understand, all involved actors must run the same encoding.
It is just a guess, but if your database and your XWiki run with
different encoding, URLs with characters like á, ñ, or / won't work.
Regarding contents by themselves, I've found a number of references that
make advisable to go with extreme care. For
instance...http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-5281.
I am updating now to 1.2. Once I have this stable release running, I
will regain access to some issues that concern encoding and come back to
this thread.
As Vincent
does ask, have you configured your XWiki installation for
UTF-8 ?
Nope. Current encoding is ISO-8859-1
But if it avoids me to remove db entries, I'm gonna configure it as soon as I can.
I've read http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Encoding
Some questions :
1 - I already have a good load of content, can I switch to UTF-8 without wrecking the
wiki ?
2 - I use Oracle 10G. It's likely that I have to
configure UTF-8 as its default character set. As anyone done that already ?
No idea, sorry.
Thanks for your help.
Xwiki is a great product.
I completely agree!
Cheers,
Ricardo
