filenames with special characters

Hi,

We have upgraded from  Blackdown-1.3.1_02b-FCS
(on debian stable)
to
Blackdown-1.4.2-01 on debian sarge.

After that, tomcat can't read files
with accented characters (e.g. é, è, à etc)
in their filenames, and also it can't read
files with åäö (Swedish characters).

Java itself (running alone outside tomcat)
handles this with

$ LANG=en_US java <class>
(running on the command line) but tomcat
seems to care less.

I know this might be a tomcat question,
but cusious as I am, I investigated
the way charsets is handled in 1.4, and
found out about charsets.jar.

Looking in that archive, I found these:
$ jar -tf /usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/lib/charsets.jar |grep ISO_8859_[0-9].class
sun/nio/cs/ext/ISO_8859_3.class
sun/nio/cs/ext/ISO_8859_6.class
sun/nio/cs/ext/ISO_8859_8.class

but no ISO_8859_1. Why is that?
(just out of curiosity).

On our test server, running
Blackdown-1.3.1_02b-FCS (on woody)
Java on the command line handles
filenames with åäö (Swedish chars)
and accented chars in the filename
without the LANG= ploy.

What might be wrong/different?

Thanks in advance

Rikard
