[jira] [Created] (FLINK-5824) Fix String/byte conversion without explicit encodings

Ufuk Celebi created FLINK-5824:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Fix String/byte conversion without explicit encodings
                 Key: FLINK-5824
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5824
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Python API, Queryable State, State Backends, Checkpointing, Webfrontend
            Reporter: Ufuk Celebi


In a couple of places we convert Strings to bytes and bytes back to Strings without explicitly specifying an encoding. This can lead to problems when client and server default encodings differ.

The task of this JIRA is to go over the whole project and look for conversions where we don't specify an encoding and fix it to specify UTF-8 explicitly.

For starters, we can {{grep -R 'getBytes()' .}}, which already reveals many problematic places.
