[users@httpd] Copyright character and Apache 2.0.49

 Hi All,

I have a user who has created html files that contain the copyright character.
As I transition her from a 1.3.27 server to a 2.0.49 server we discover that
the copyright character no longer displays correctly.

Instead a "?" character is displayed. Can anyone shed any light on how to
fix this?

We are running the 2.0.49 server on FC2. The 1.3.27 server is on RH7.3.
Thanks!

Mike

Hi Joe, 

Thanks! That did the trick. All characters display correctly now.

Fedora Core 2 ships with "AddDefaultCharset UTF-8" in the default
httpd.conf; you'll need to change this to, for instance, ISO-8859-1 if
you are migrating a non-UTF-8 document tree.

Look at the charset in the Content-Type HTTP response header sent by
the two versions of Apache and then use the directives from mod_mime
and the AddDefaultCharset directive to assure that they match.

My mistake. It's the trademark character. NOT the copyright character.
