*** Bug 333536 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 333555 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** For your information. Please look into bug# 244441 c43 I think we need to change the config.rdf.tmpl that is changed in the eclipse installation to <db_encoding>UTF-8</db_encoding> Instead of updating it, can I just remove it? Here's what I'm seeing: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Note: this interface is experimental and under development. - We may and probably will make breaking changes to it in the future. --> <RDF xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:bz="http://www.bugzilla.org/rdf#"> <bz:installation rdf:about="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/"> <bz:install_version>3.6.3</bz:install_version> <db_encoding>ISO-8859-1</db_encoding> The encoding is already specified in the first line. Frank, can you check if the XML header reflects the database encoding? All Bugzilla instances I looked at returned UTF-8 but they might have all indeed been configured for UTF-8. The earliest we could release support for parsing the header would be in February as part of Helios SR2 (Mylyn 3.4.3 ). To support older Mylyn versions we need the <db_encoding/> tag around for a while. (In reply to comment #5) > Frank, can you check if the XML header reflects the database encoding?

The XML header is only for the XML content and not the database encoding, so we must stay with the db_encoding until we have an better way. > The earliest we could release support for parsing the header would be in > February as part of Helios SR2 (Mylyn 3.4.3 ).

It may take a while for config.xml to propagate to the mirrors but you can see our local copy on d.e.org: http://download.eclipse.org/arch/config.xml Thanks Denis. Frank, let's make sure that we have an open bug and patch against Bugzilla to get this into the standard configuration schema. (In reply to comment #7) > This change is done on our end.

It may take a while until all mylyn clients have the updated configuration. Expect that you get many account locked until every user have the new version. *** Bug 334111 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
