How set encodings in Jenkins to UTF-8

Question

Cyrillic symbols in the Console output are not displayed correctly. Jenkins is running through Tomcat / 8.5.11 on Windows 7
The Jenkins property displays:
file.encoding Cp1251
sun.jnu.encoding Cp1251
sun.stderr.encoding cp866
sun.stdout.encoding cp866

How can I set the encoding on UTF-8 in Jenkins? Encoding in autotest code is UTF-8.
It is example problem in Cyrillic text
_РјР°РєСЃРёРјСѓРј_РёРЅС„РѕСЂРјР°С†РёРё

According to this answer: JVM property -Dfile.encoding=UTF8 or UTF-8?

You have to add this JVM setting to your Jenkins starting script (JAVA_TOOLS_OPTIONS):

-Dfile.encoding=UTF8

Note that you need to do this both on the master node and on all slave nodes as well. – twasbrillig Jun 11 '18 at 21:39

I created file setenv.bat in bin folder and set JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"

Note that the JAVA_OPTS environment variable may already be set with useful data (like JAVA_OPTS='-Djava.util.logging.config.file=<..>), so first check its current value and then append the extra -Dfile.encoding setting at the end of the existing string value.

For agents with this Console Output:

Make sure agent's environment variable "LC_ALL=C.UTF-8" is set; Consle Output would return afterwards:

Sample Pipeline:

pipeline {
   agent any
   stages {
      stage('Hello') {
         steps {
            
            echo 'Hello World'          
            
            // Latin characters always OK here.
            echo 'áéíóú' 
            
            script {
               
               // Agent requires env variable `"LC_ALL=C.UTF-8"`
               // to see 'ó' correctly through Console Output.
               sh "echo Versión ..."
               
               // Check available locales
               sh "locale -a"
            }
         }
      }
   }
}

Using Jenkins within Docker:

Jenkins Controller - Version 2.289.2; image: jenkins/jenkins:lts-jdk11

Jenkins Agent - Repo Digest ID: jenkins/ssh-agent@sha256:3292bc96

Worth mentioning that the node needs to be restarted. – Valentin Despa Aug 28 '22 at 23:50 — Valentin Despa, Aug 28 '22 at 23:50

Go to your Jenkins installation directory and open the Jenkins XML file.
Add the highlighted text(-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ffm5ZlpBy3SGcvc6J21P62HDH36vByzI/view and save.
Open Command Prompt -->Go to your Jenkins installation directory and enter the command to stop Jenkins :- jenkins.exe stop
Restart jenkins by entering the command at the command prompt:- jenkins.exe restart
Re-run build in jenkins and check the console output. https://prnt.sc/zoi3BmOAcKQ5
