[jira] [Commented] (OFBIZ-4535) Search using Russian word (maybe others) causes distortion and failed product search

["Uwe Allner (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4535?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13220875#comment-13220875 ] 

Uwe Allner commented on OFBIZ-4535:
-----------------------------------

Yes, it occurs on trunk and demos as well. And not only in the search, but also e.g. when creating an address in the ecommerce application with german umlaut characters. It seems to me there is a general problem with encoding/decoding, even if the parameters are transported in the body of a POST request.
I checked all known means of fixing this: setting the SetCharacterEncodingFilter in the web.xml of my application (to UTF-8); the web page is UTF-8 encoded, the tomcat connector is set to UTF-8, the request is marked as UTF-8 and also the response comes as UTF-8.
Perhaps somewhere a double encoding is done; but I wasn't able to find it nor changing the behaviour of OFBiz in this regard in any way... :o(

>             Project: OFBiz
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: specialpurpose/ecommerce
>    Affects Versions: Release 09.04.01, SVN trunk
>         Environment: Ubuntu and others.
>            Reporter: mz4wheeler

> NOTE: The following post contains UTF8 characters.
> After rebuilding keywords in a UTF8 database (postgres) and searching a UTF8 browser (chrome), the Russian phrase is correctly present in the database, as follows:
> ofbiz=# select * from product_keyword where keyword = 'игроков';
>    product_id    | keyword | relevancy_weight (trimmed)
> -----------------+---------+-----------------
>  DVDMV-ADVANGYM  | игроков |                1 
> However, when pasting 'игроков' into ecommerce Search, the following is returned "Not Found"
> Keywords: "Ð¸Ð³Ñ Ð¾ÐºÐ¾Ð²", where any word matches, which distorts the search.
> This may affect other languages, which I haven't tested.
> I also tried the same search in 9.04 (demo) and trunk and it produces the same issue.  This means that multi-language product search is broken in OFBiz.
