asked on
Garbaged / Garbled Japanese text Apache
Hi all,
Thanks in advance for your input. I am running Apache Server on a QNAP NAS TS-210 and have had success in changing the locale to allow support for UTF-8 formatted characters in bash and various other apps (Midnight Commander, etc). I have not, however been able to successfully get Apache to display the same text appropriately. Instead, I get the usual unintelligible garbage text when one has an encoding issue. I have tried several solutions I have found online to no avail.
I have attached an image showing the issue as it presents itself in a browser. Can anyone advise as to how I may resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Mike

Japanese character display is working fine on every webpage other than this. This is absolutely a server side issue.

Thanks very much, but this again is not pertinent to my issue. The article you sent describes how to configure the Apache server to serve customized language content based on a user's locale setting. In actuality, I need to configure Apache to serve a single format (which is merely a directory listing generated by Apache) in the correct encoding.
The issue here is that Apache looks at the directory listing (which is UTF-8 encoded) and renders it for the browser. Somewhere in the process of going from file / folder encoded in UTF-8 to UTF-8 encoded HTML, the data is turned to garbage. As it stands, it is rendering rubbish instead of UTF-8 encoded data.
