Hi guys, Arnaud summarized very well the "solutions" for the accent problem or other special characters in a Windows prompt. For me, the best way is to get the current codepage in a batch (ie maven.bat) and put it in the jvm. Personally, I am not hot about the idea to add -Dfile.encoding option in the MAVEN_OPTS: we need to have a generic way. Thought?
I tried that Brett said, without success. Here is a dummy bat file: MODE CON[:] CP SELECT=yyy echo %yyy% But I am not a DOS expert :) About accents in the message_fr.properties, I saw that the translation of FAILED is \u00c8CHOU\u00c8 ie ÉCHOUÉ. The É character is \u00c8 in java, so correct: http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00c8/index.htm I did this morning a new checkout and a new build. Working as expected.
