Hi All

We have group of taiwanese people

We used pidgin software program

and also i used latest version of openfire

My procedures once i add new account for taiwanese

example:

Username: lin_hsiao_chen

Fullname: 林曉晨 {Lin Hsiao Chen} <---- its a chinese and english name togerther so that when user online it will display/show on the pidgin

Group: TAIWAN IM Group

The problem is after few minutes it become question mark

I dont think is the problem is my DISTRO i used english version of centos 5.4 running as terminal mode not GUI or it is a BUG

is there any way to fix

Thanks

It looks that the chinese charter store in database was wrong.

Which database are you use, If you use MySQL.

I always create database give the default charset UTF8, use command like this:

create database IM default charset UTF8;

and the jdbc driver like this

jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/IM?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF8

that will be correct.

BTW: try use sql client to find the value store in db,the use will in ofUsers table.

gook luck!
