My /etc/sysconfig/i18n contained: LANG="en_US.UTF-8" SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" I changed it to export LC_ALL=C export LANG=C However, I'm still having a problem with our webpages (run through apache and resin). The encoding seems to still have a problem on some pages that are being served. In one case, the apostrophe comes up as a question mark (although when I cut the encoding itself into its own file and load it in a browser, it comes up correctly as an apostrophe) So I'm guessing there still is some encoding I have to de-set in either apache or resin. Thanks for your help- Malcom, thanks for your detailed explanation. I will experiment with the settings as well to see if it solves the apache/resin page problem Ben > -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
