Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of BPM Express, BPM Standard, and * * BPM Advanced. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In Process Portal, the language * * dropdown menu on the User Profile * * edit dialog contains garbled * * characters (appearing as '?') if * * Process Portal is being accessed via * * a WebSEAL server. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Due to lack of proper encoding, the BPM server sends data to the web browser which, when processed by the WebSEAL server (on the way to the browser), can result in some characters not being interpreted correctly by the browser (and therefore displayed as '?').
Problem conclusion
Ensuring proper encoding is implemented for the data sent by the server to the browser resolves the issue. Interim fixes for Business Process Manager Version 8.0.1.1 and Version 8.0.1.2 have been published to Fix Central. Please refer to the separate file that is automatically downloaded with each interim fix for prerequisite information and installation/uninstallation instructions.
