JR59639: THE DECISION TABLE EDITOR IN THE SERVICE FLOW EDITOR RENDERS INTERNATIONAL CHARACTERS INCORRECTLY

workflow.18001.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When you enter international characters (characters outside the
  US-ASCII character set) in the titles or cells of a decision
  table, edited within the Service Flow editor, the characters are
   displayed incorrectly after you close and reopen the editor.
  
  PRODUCTS AFFECTED
  IBM Business Process Manager (BPM)
  IBM BPM Express
  

Local fix

• On operating systems that support locales with UTF-8 as
  character encoding, start the server in such a locale. For
  example, if the system has a locale named en_US.UTF-8, set the
  environment variables LC_ALL and LANG to en_US.UTF-8 before
  starting the server.
  

Problem summary

• The strings that make up the titles and cell values are
  displayed in the wrong encoding because of an incorrect
  initialization during the loading of the values.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix that corrects the initialization to contain the correct
  encoding will be available in a future release of IBM Business
  Automation Workflow.
  

Temporary fix
