[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPXDOC-195?page=comments#action_64441 ]
Lance Bader commented on MPXDOC-195: ------------------------------------ Since I opened the issue I copied the same archive to a workstation using the Sun JDK V1.5 Update 6 and recreated the same problem. I think this means that it is unlikely that the IBM JDK is causing the problem. I have also modified the velocity-1.4.jar file in the .maven\repository\velocity\jars directory. I replaced org\apache\velocity\runtime\defaults\velocity.properties after making the following changes. #---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # T E M P L A T E E N C O D I N G #---------------------------------------------------------------------------- input.encoding=UTF-8 output.encoding=UTF-8 I recreated the problem after making this change. I like to think that the problem is in velocity, but this change did not affect the outcome. Next I will move to Red Hat Linux and try the suggested work around there.
