Mail Receiver - Send file in ISO-8859-1 encoding

Hi,
I'm sending mail with an attachment using mail adapter, but instead of specified ISO-8859-1 it is converted to UTF-8 no BOM,. Because of that, some characters (ñ,ç, etc) are not transferred properly.
Settings:
Message protocol: XIPAYLOAD
No mail package.
Transform.ContentType: multipart/mixed; boundary=--AaZz; charset=ISO-8859-1
Payload:
multipart/mixed; boundary=AaZz; charset=ISO-8859-1</Content_Type><Content>--AaZz
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Disposition: inline
File attachment
AaZz
Content-Type: text/plain; charset= ISO-8859-1
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=TestFile
iso-8859 characters ñ ç ñ ñ
AaZz--
</Content></ns:Mail>
I need advice in how to force the file to be created with ISO-8859-1 enconding.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Iván.

Hi Jean-Philippe,
Yes, please check my first post, if you use same settings, and create message as mine, it should work, the TestFile is created as an attachment.
Include this line in the module configuration with transform key:
Transform.ContentType: multipart/mixed; boundary=--AaZz;
If you still have issues, please give me a description of the error.
Regards,
Ivan.

File adapter ISO-8859-1 encoding problems in XI 3.0

We are using the XI 3.0 file adapter and are experiencing some XML encoding troubles.
A SAP R/3 system is delivering an IDoc outbound. XI picks up the IDoc and converts it to an external defined .xml file. The .xml file is send to a connected ftp-server. At the remote FTP server the file is generating an error, as it is expected to arrive in ISO-8859-1 encoding. The Transfer Mode is set to Binary, File Type Text, and Encoding ISO-8859-1.
The .xml file is encoded correctly in ISO-8859-1, but the problem is that the XML encoding declaration has the wrong value 'UTF-8'.
Does anybody know of a work around, to change the encoding declaration to ISO-8859-1 in the message mapping program?

An example of the XSL code might be as follow:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method='xml' encoding='ISO-8859-1' />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="*" />
</xsl:template>

I read files from the web, but there is a XML tag
with the encoding attribute in the RSS file.If you are quite sure that you have an encoding attribute set to ISO-8859-1 then I expect that your RSS file has non-ISO-8859-1 character though I thought all bytes -128 to 127 were valid ISO-8859-1 characters!
Many years ago I had a problem with an XML file with invalid characters. I wrote a simple filter (using FilterInputStream) that made sure that all the byes it processed were ASCII. My problem turned out to be characters with value zero which the Microsoft XML parser failed to process. It put the parser in an infinite loop!
In the filter, as each byte is read you could write out the Hex value. That way you should be able to find the offending character(s).

Convert from ISO 8859-1 encoding to UTF-8

Hi
My Os name is 'SunOS ut51109 5.10 Generic_144500-19 sun4v sparc SUNW,T5440'.
I want to change the encoding of the existing .bcp file from ISO 8859-1 to UTF-8 with out using any temp files as these .bcp file will be pointed by an external table.
here is the command I issued in the script(ksh file)
iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t UTF-8 file1.bcp > file1.bcp
After the script got executed file1 is empty(showing 0 bytes).
Please correct me or let me know the syntax to be followed to write the data into the same file in UTF-8 format.
Thanks
kartheek

You cannot do conversion from ISO 8859-1 to UTF-8 in-place because the UTF-8 version will generally be longer (unless you convert a pure ASCII file, which does not need conversion in the first place). Therefore, you would have to overwrite what you have not read yet. Instead, convert to a new file with a temporary name, drop the original and rename the temporary back to original. This is not that complicated.
If the problem is that you want to overwrite a file already open by the database, then rename the incoming file first and then convert copying to the target.

WSDL Generating in ISO-8859-1 encoding want in UTF - 8

Hi XI Geeks,
       When I am using "Define Web Service" tool in Integration Directory, the WSDL file is being created with encoding <b>ISO-8859-1</b>, <i><b>but we want in "UTF-8"</b></i>.
        Is there any setting we need to change in WAS which will change this default.
Any ideas are welcome and thanks in advance.
Regards
Sujan

Hi Vishnu,
         We already did that for the time being. But the client wants it be consistent.
         In another client engagement the WSDL is created in "UTF-8" format we double checked twice.
         We are running on SP12.
If any of the SP12 guys can generated a WSDL and let us know that it is created in "ISO-8859-1" encoding.

Sujan

How to store UTF-8 characters in an iso-8859-1 encoded oracle database?

How can we store UTF-8 characters in an iso-8859-1 encoded oracle database? We can NOT change the database encoding but need to store e.g. Polish or Russian characters besides other European languages.
Is there any stable sollution with good performance?
We use Oracle 8.1.6 with iso-8859-1 encoding, Bea WebLogic 7.0, JDK 1.3.1 and the following thin driver: "Oracle JDBC Driver version - 9.0.2.0.0".

There are a couple of unsupported options, but I wouldn't consider using them on a production database running other critical applications. I would also strongly discourage their use unless you understand in detail how Oracle National Language Support (NLS) works, otherwise you could end up with corrupt data or worse.
In a sense, you've been asked to do the impossible. The existing databas echaracter sets do not support encoding the data you've been asked to store.
Can you create a new database with an appropriate database character set and deploy your application there? That's probably the easiest solution.
If that isn't an option, and you really need to store data in this database, you could use one of the binary data types (RAW and BLOB), but that would mean that it would be exceptionally difficult for applications other than yours to extract the data. You would have to ensure that the data was always encoded in the same character set, otherwise you wouldn't be able to properly decode it later. This would also add a lot of complexity to your application, since you couldn't send or recieve string data from the database.
Unfortunately, I suspect you will have to choose from a list of bad options.

Java App on Linux : Unable to read iso-8859-1 encoded file correctly.

I have a file which is encoded as iso-8859-1, and contains characters such as ô .
I am reading this file with java code, something like:
File in = new File("myfile.csv");
InputStream fr = new FileInputStream(in);
byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
while (true) {
int byteCount = fr.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
if (byteCount <= 0) {
break;
String s = new String(buffer, 0, byteCount,"ISO-8859-1");
System.out.println(s);
However the ô character is always garbled, usually printing as a ? .
I am running this on a Linux machine. It works fine on my XP machine.
I have verified that I can see the correct characters when I cat the file on the terminal.
(Interestingly, but I think maybe only by co-incidence, it works when I run with the -Dfile.encoding=UTF16 option, but not with UTF8, although this appears a hack rather than a fix since this option was not intended for developer use by sun - but I thought mentioning it may provide some clues as to what is going on)

I think your main probelm is with the console. When you send text to the console, it's sent in the system default encoding. On an English-locale system that might be ASCII, ISO-8859-1, windows-1252, UTF-8, MacRoman, and probably several other possibilities. Then the console decodes the the bytes using whatever encoding it feels like using--on my WinXP machine, it uses cp437 by default (just for laughs, as far as I can tell). If the text happens to be pure, seven-bit ASCII, there's no problem, since all those encodings are identical in that range.
But if you need to output anything other than ASCII characters, avoid the console. Send the output to a file and specify an encoding that you know will be able to handle your characters--UTF-8 can handle anything. Then open the file with an editor that can read that encoding; most of them can handle UTF-8 these days, and many will even detect it automatically. You also need to be using a font that can display your characters.
However, you're also going about the reading part wrong. Instead of reading the text in as bytes and passing them to a String constructor, you should use an InputStreamReader and read it as text from the beginning: BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
new FileInputStream("myfile.csv"), "ISO-8859-1"));I am curious about your statement that "it works" when you run with the -Dfile.encoding=UTF16 option. I wouldn't be surprised to see it output the correct characters (ASCII characters, anyway), but I would expect to see the characters interspersed with blank spaces or rectangles.

UTF-8 encoding vs ISO 8859-1 encoding

The iTunes tech specs call for UTF-8 encoding of the XML feed file; a friend of mine uses feed generator software through his blog that uses ISO 8859 encoding. Is there a way to convert the latter to UTF-8 so that iTunes tags may be successfully added?
When I tried editing his XML file, I got error messages when I submitted the file to RSS feed validator sites (such as http://feedvalidator.org/. Any help or knowledge is appreciated because I am not the least bit expert in this coding arena.

You don't need to convert iso 8859-1 (us-ascii) to utf-8 unless you have nonstandard characters. Basically, ascii is a subset of utf-8 and for English it will serve you just fine. You can have iTunes tags in the xml file even if the file itself is encoded in iso 8859-1.
The error you see at feedvalidator.org is most likely a warning.
Hope this helps!

Help needed to enable ISO-8859-1 encoding in Weblogic 10.3

We have upgraded from Weblogic 10 to Weblogic 10.3. In the old environment foreign characters (iso-8859-1 charater set) were enabled using the Java properties "*-Dfile.encoding=iso-8859-1 -Dclient.encoding.override=iso-8859-1*".
Also, we set the page encoding in the JSPs to be
_'<%@ page pageEncoding="iso-8859-1" contentType="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" %>'._
This was working fine. We were able to input characters like euro (€) and display it back to user.
After we upgraded to Weblogic 10.3, I applied the same Java properties, all the special characters of the 8859-1 set like Æ, Ã etc are just displayed as garbled text like 'ï¿½ï¿½ï' etc. So, the new server is unable to handle/encode these characters.
Our weblogic environment is - Weblogic appserver 10.3, JRockit 1.6.0_31-R28.2.3-4.1.0 running on Linux OS.
Is there any additional seting in 10.3 to encode character sets?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kalyan,
Thanks for the info. Please help me understand just one more thing, before I ask our server team to apply the patch.
I checked the full version of our Weblogic server from WEBLOGIC_HOME/registry.xml. It is *<component name="WebLogic Server" version="10.3.6.0" >*.
The patch from MOS says it is *"Release WLS 10.3.3"*. Does this mean the version 10.3.6 should already have this patch? Is the release of Patch same as WLS version?
Should I still go ahead and install the patch for this version 10.3.6 also?
Thanks again.

Oracle Service Bus to IBM MQ v7.0 Integration Issue ISO-8859-1 Encoding

Hi,
This is the issue we badly struggling with for a few days..
I"ve a MQ proxy service listening to MQ REQUEST queue and when message is arrived to proxy, do some service callouts to local protcol proxy services and reply back to MQ REPLY queue on the same Listener Proxy. This is working good without any issues.
However, when I want to route reply through MQ business service, the message is going to *MQ reply queue with encoding="ISO-8859-1*". but expected requirement is to publish a message *with encoding="UTF-8"* which I'm not able to do. Hence MQ is rejecting the message.
Working path: MQ <--> MQ proxy <-->DynamicRouting<-->Local Proxy
*NOT Working Path: REQUEST MQ --> MQ proxy -->DynamicRouting -->Response Route Line -->For Loop -->Publish-->MQ Business Service-->REPLY MQ*

How to convert back from UTF8 to ISO-8859-1 encoding?

hi,
I have a bunch of XML files which were wrongly encoded, and we lost all our accent characters.
ie: é become Ã©
so how can I recover my XML files using powershell?
so I want to change all the UTF8 ecoded characters back to the original ISO accent character
Ã© -> é
I try this:
1")
$utf8 = [System.text.Encoding]::UTF8
$utfBytes = $utf8.GetBytes("Ã©")
$isoBytes = [System.text.Encoding]::Convert($utf8, $iso, $utfBytes)
$iso.GetString($isoBytes)
but doesnt works.
so is there a way to do this in powershell?
I have to scan hundreds of files...
thanks.

You can't. UTF-8 strips all of the information from the characters so you cannot know which characters are which. If you know which characters you need to fix (requires knowing the spelling of the words) you could possible develop an matrix of
replacements. There is no simple one line method.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Latin-2 (ISO 8859-2) encoding in PDF

Hi,
Is any simply way how to add Latin-2 encoding support in to PDF file? I tried to use CMap, but I failed. I have to have some mistake in my code, because Acrobat Reader can't load it.
Here http://nopaste.ceske-hry.cz/592 is code of my file. Can someone corect it? I'm distressed
You can download the file from http://nopaste.ceske-hry.cz/592-download

So, I implemented embedded Type 1 font with encoding. I created Type 1 font from TrueType program by utility TT2PT1 ( http://ttf2pt1.sourceforge.net/ ) . This utility created file *.pfb and *. *.afm .
From *.afm I get characters width and encoding. And *.pfb I embeded into a PDF file.
But I've problem to determine Length1, Length2 and Length3 of *.pfb file in PDF stream. Here're .pfb and .afm files of Comic MS font http://weny.blueasoftware.com/comic.pfb http://weny.blueasoftware.com/comic.afm . I read Type 1 font reference, but nothing about *.pfb files with binary mess at start and end of file wasn't writen there
Here's output of my PDF exporter http://weny.blueasoftware.com/ukazka5.pdf , it's correct displayed by Acrobat Reader and Foxit , but i'm not sure if the file is correct. Because GhostPDF show correct font but without correct encoding :/

XMLReader throws "Invalid UTF8 encoding." - Need parser for ISO-8859-1 chrs

Hi,
We are facing an issue when we try to send data which is encoded in "ISO-8859-1" charset (german chars) via the EMDClient (agent), which tries to parse it using the oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParser . The parser, while trying to read it, is unable to determine the charset encoding of our data and assumes that the encoding is "UTF-8", and when it tries to read it, throws the :
"java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid UTF8 encoding." exception.
I looked at the XMLReader's code and found that it tries to read the first 4 bytes (Byte Order Mark - BOM) to determine the encoding. It is probably expecting us to send the data where the first line is probably:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso88591" ?>
But, the data that our application sends is typically as below:
========================================================
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: /ade/vivsharm_emsa2/oracle/work/listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = semsa2)
(ORACLE_HOME = /ade/vivsharm_emsa2/oracle)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = stadm18.us.oracle.com)(PORT = 15100))
========================================================
the first 4 bytes in our case will be, int[] {35, 32, 108, 105} == chars {#, SPACE, l, i},
which does not match any of the encodings predefined in oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLReader.pushXMLReader() method.
How do we ensure that the parser identifies the encoding properly and instantiates the correct parser for "ISO-8859-1"...
Should we just add the line <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso88591" ?> at the beginning of our data?
We have tried constructing the inputstream (ByteArrayInputStream) by using String.getBytes("ISO-8859-1") and passing that to the parser, but that does not seem to work.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek.

Your message is not XML. I believe that the XMLParser is going to have problems with that as well. Perhaps you could wrap the message in an XML tag set and begin the document as you suggested with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso88591"?>.
You are correct in that the parser uses only the first 4 bytes to detect the encoding of the document. It can only determine if the document in ASCII or EPCDIC based. If it is ASCII it can detect only between UTF-8 and UTF-16. It will need the encoding attribute to recognize the ISO-8859-1 encoding.
hope this helps
