In an Apache config you can set the ccsid like this

DefaultFsCCSID 37

But that might not be the silver bullet that you desire. You need to check the CCSID that they are using first. The @ symbol is the same in CCSID 37 and 285, so it might not be your issue. There are lots of other considerations also, because in the UK they are likely to want to use the Euro symbol etc. That is not supported by CCSID 37, you would have to switch to CCSID 1140.

Kevin,

I agree, I'm just wondering where, exactly, this setting is in the Apache
Config.

I think it might be a CCSID issue. Presumably your application is coded and compiled in a particular CCSID? If you are in the States then most likely CCSID 37. What CCSID id are the Apache jobs running in in the UK? If you have not forced this in the Apache config, then they will be running in the default CCSID for the box (DSPSYSVAL QCCSID).

Kevin,

The application is reading user profile names. They have @ characters in most of their profiles. These are getting interpreted by our application as a different character.

Quoting Kevin Turner [4]<kevin.turner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:


I think you need to be a bit more specific with regard to the problems they are having. Does the character look OK to them on the browser when they key it in, put is incorrect when saved to the database, or vice-versa? Or are you saying that what they press on the keyboard is not what they see on the browser?

I have a customer in the UK who is getting some strange keyboard character transposition problems using one of our applications with the HTTPS server instance that we sent to him.
Does anyone know how we can modify the server instance to adapt to the European keyboard. I'm assuming it is something simple ....
perhaps in the Content Settings?
