Multipart form in JSP, encoding problems in Glassfish

Question

I'm getting invalid character from my jsp/servlet using Eclipse and Glassfish.

If I enter "Pêche" I get "PÃªches". So, this is encoding problem. I tried several thinks and nothing works.

I tried to add a filter (Encoding problems in JSP)
I tried to add jsp properties in web.xml (Unable to change charset from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 in glassfish 3.1)
I tried to change the character encoding my self in java code by request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
I tried to add VM arguments (Unable to change charset from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 in glassfish 3.1) but I cannot because of this (Eclipse - No server found in Run Configurations)
I added this " accept="UTF-8" accept-charset="UTF-8" " to my
I added <parameter-encoding default-charset="UTF-8"/> in sun-web.xml and glassfish-web.xml

I still get Mojibake.

Here is my servlet code:

String name = (String) request.getParameter("templateName");

Here is my jsp content:

<%@ page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>....</title>
</head>
<body>
     <form action="<c:url value="/form/edit" />" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

                <input type="text" id="templateName" name="templateName"  />
                <br />

                <input type="submit" value="Valider" class="button button_blue margin_button_form"/>
        </form>
</body>
</html>

Any other suggestion?

At the end, it seems to be a Glassfish bug: https://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-18516

Solved awfully with this: new String (s.getBytes ("iso-8859-1"), "UTF-8"); (https://stackoverflow.com/a/549634/1458542)

I just faced the same issue. I guess you can temporarily set this in glassfish-web.xml:

<parameter-encoding default-charset="UTF-8"></parameter-encoding>

This works for me.

Solved it by this.... WEB-INF\glassfish-web.xml with content – cljk Nov 04 '13 at 14:04

Try to add this:

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
</head>

And in your Servlet add this:

request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");

Furthermore test POST and GET forms as they are handled differently. The accept attribute is informative to the browser too. (Not getting HTML entities for instance.)

I added "" in sun-web.xml and glassfish-web.xml and still not working... – Jon May 14 '13 at 11:13
If no one gives a helpful answer, disable some servlet filters, or better yet create a new test project. :( sorry – Joop Eggen May 14 '13 at 11:15
