character encoded in latin1 cause sm restart.

[marship]

I have many friends(about 200) and some friend use strange nickname. some of the character in their name make jabberd behave strange. I am not sure what the character is . But the router said

ROUT: Tue Jun 5 13:54:21 2007 [notice] [127.0.0.1, port=53901] error: XML parse error (not well-formed (invalid token))

Then the sm offline and several seconds later it online again.

I tried to modify some of them's name then a problem solved.

Now can I config the jabberd use 'latin1'(ISO-8859-1) as the default encoding of the XML which is used to transfer information between jabberd's components? thanks.

What do you mean by "sm offline"?

The XMPP encoding is defined to be UTF-8 and it's the only allowable encoding. You cannot use other (latin1) rncoding even if you declare it in XML header. It's being silently ignored, stream is parsed as UTF-8 and latin1 characters causes XML parse errors and stream closing.

Thanks. I will change my mysql character encoding to utf-8 and try again.

(In [239]) Added DEFAULT CHARSET=UTF8 to tools/db-setup.mysql DB creation. Together with see #90 it fixes #88
