Hmm, must have missed that setContentType() method exposed in the ResourceResponse class...

[Mahesh Narke, geändert vor 9 Jahren.]

Is there any other way i can set the content type?

You mean like magic wand? Incantations?

No, that's how you set the content type. How else would you want to set it and why?

If those kind of things works our life would have been very easy.

I am trying to perform internationalization (Arabic). It is working fine for English but for Arabic it encoding those values into ????????????????????????? or some other garbage values

Hmm, content type is not supposed to be modified by localization... Content type is really just the mime type selection and, AFAIK, are not localizable (although I am not an I18N expert).

Locale should affect the content itself, but not the content type... Perhaps it's a Liferay bug? Which version of Liferay are you using?

[Mahesh Narke, geändert vor 9 Jahren.]

Version : liferay-portal-6.2-ee-sp5

Setcontenttype in action mapping:

HttpServletResponse httpResponse = PortalUtil.getHttpServletResponse(actionResponse);
httpResponse.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");

but this doesn't solve my problem of garbage content .

Hi Maresh,

does this happen with any content in your portal?

[Mahesh Narke, geändert vor 9 Jahren.]

No. Facing this problem for textarea only.
I have one textarea on my jsp page and value we are getting is from our properties files.
There i am facing the issue at the time of arabic

Ok, I remember some problems in CKEditor due to not adding -Dfile.encoding=UTF8 while starting up.

Can you read these instructions? https://www.liferay.com/documentation/liferay-portal/6.1/user-guide/-/ai/lp-6-1-ugen11-installing-liferay-on-tomcat-7-0 (specifically, the setenv.bat part).

[Mahesh Narke, geändert vor 9 Jahren.]

I have jboss.
I have tested on Tomcat.
I am getting proper arabic values on tomcat but not on jboss.
Need to implement for jboss as at this moment i can not move from jboss to tomcat

Hi Mahesh,

don't be afraid of searching documentation! https://www.liferay.com/documentation/liferay-portal/6.1/user-guide/-/ai/installing-liferay

Check that you did all the steps properly for your Jboss version. In your case, be sure to add the right UTF encoding in standalone.conf.

Got the solution for this: Following are the changes i made :
in .jsp file :
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" %>

In controller.java

actionRequest.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
messageToCustomer=ParamUtil.getString(actionRequest, "messageToCustomer");
byte[] bytes = messageToCustomer.getBytes(StandardCharsets.ISO_8859_1);
messageToCustomer = new String(bytes, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
