Re: New Apache Server Instance Test Page Garbled

13488 is one of the Unicode character sets (UCS-2?). It sounds like the problem is that it isn't being converted to ASCII (you may want to make sure you are fairly current on PTF's). I just looked at one of our systems and this file is CCSID 819 which is ASCII. You should be able to change the CCSID of the file and data with EDTF if you really want to see it but as long as it serves up your own content okay, I don't think I'd worry about it much.

   Our system does have DBCS support installed, but it is not active
   according to the QIGCxxxx system values.\001 The CCSID for this file is
   13488 which appears to be the source of the problem, but I have not been
   able to change it to another value.

    Hello list.

    I've just set up a new server instance in Apache and started it.  Most of
    the values are based on the default Apache server that comes with the OS.
    When I start the instance and go to the default index page .... I get
    something that looks like this:

    㱨瑭...
    

 These are HTML renderings of characters not renderable in the current
 character set.

 Just for fun I took the two word values and converted to hex:

 3c68 and 746d

 Considering each byte as a value by itself, a very interesting pattern
 is seen when looking up the values as ascii characters:

 3c = <
 68 = h
 74 = t
 6d = m

 which most likely is the beginning of the underlying file in the filesystem.

 Would you have any idea why this file was considered to contain double
 byte characters?
